UNSW design student Alfred Boyadgis has won a prestigous Red Dot design award for his futuristic motor cycle cop helmet that has facial recognition technology and a fully integrated communications system. Currently, police officers on motorcycles have heavy helmets that are without any smart phone-style technology and communication devices available to other officers.
"Even though motorcycle police are often first on the scene, they rely on poor technology," says Alfred, the 23-year-old industrial design student from UNSW. "They sometimes even have mobile phones tucked under their helmets."
The new lightweight helmet, which has received interest locally and internationally, enables rapid communication between emergency services. Among its features is a GPS and the first semi-modular visor system to increase vision and improve safety by more than 65 percent.
