Skully: The Helmet of the future

In recent times we find smartphone technology almost reaching a point where we have almost packed everything in a very small box package. The processing power of a computer right in the palm of your hand. Now the time has come when the same needs to really spread out into wearable technology. Google Glass and Smart watches are two such things that have already proved the concept. May be in a few years from now wearable electronics would be a thing of everyday use.

So if you drive a bike you know how difficult it gets to access your phone once you put the helmet on. Skully AR-1 is the answer to just that and a lot more. Imagine a helmet that brings all the features of a smartphone right in front of your eyes. And yes no compromise on safety.
