Re: [ST] Anybody seen these?

Not an optical engineer, but my educated guess is that the coatings on the reflective surfaces are also absorptive on certain wavelengths.  Hence not reflect the wavelengths of the headlights  but still keep a decent overall optical image.

FWIW: according to their FAQ...

Q: What about the glare from vehicles coming from behind?
A: The helmet has a series of reflective surfaces that limit the
intensity of light hitting the front reflective surface. This limits the
intensity of reflected light significantly. Even a slight turn of the
head can ensure the reflective light path is stopped. Find out more on
the safety & design page.

How?  Any optical engineers out there?
