At the cost involved it might be worth retro-fitting a Google Glass instead of a proprietary helmet and unproven navigation system (motorcyclists are picky about helmets).
- Zhenya 13y agoGlass isn't a HUD.
- infinotize 13y agoYes it is, it's a Display that allows you to keep your Head Up, and on the road in this case of the motorcycle.
- Zhenya 13y ago"A head-up display or heads-up display—also known as a HUD—is any transparent display that presents data without requiring users to look away from their usual viewpoints." With glass you have to look UP and the screen is almost never on. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head-up_display http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head-up_display
- aray 13y agoAlso the glass explorers / motorcycle riders I know are worried about the glass prism impacting their eye or face during an accident. The helmet keeps your head inside and the rest of the world out during a crash, so putting more "stuff" (especially sharp glass/electronics) in it could be dangerous.
