A new street bike helmet that has some interesting features,Heads-up display, GPS and rearview camera. This helmet seems like it has an innovation that could help in moto as well. Forget the GPS or phone link but the rearview camera might have some use. Of course it would require the goggles and helmet to be linked together to bring up the heads up display in the goggles. Otherwise the street bike guys might like the features if they don't mind parting with $1450.

I ride all street now and would love to have one of these helmets but not going to pony up that cash for a few rides a year that I do wear a helmet!
the gps would be really useful on offroad/desert riding, i think it looks pretty good too
that promo video on the home page is god awful though, "it feels like tomorrow" what exactly does that mean

Remember about 10 years ago when back-up cameras only came in high end cars like Infinity, Benz etc? Now they're in almost every new car.. In fact, they will be mandatory in new cars starting in 2018 http://www.cnet.com/news/u-s-requiring-back-up-cameras-in-cars-by-2018/
As a life long dirt rider who recently started riding street too (2013 Husqvarna TR650 Strada), I think this is BAD-ACE!! The frills such as phone/music connectivity sounds like a risky distraction, but the rear view camera and GPS are freakin clutch!!
