It’s Wow!. The Invisible Helmet

Today I read a journal on the internet reveals a new discovery. Inventions that are valuable to the cyclists. For those who love cycling but still want to look stylish and still give priority to safety, then here's the answer "The Invisible Helmet".

I say "Wow". Yes because most people are cycling, especially cycling to go to the office more emphasis on the appearance of safety. They want to remain visible on the other stylists but not attention to road safety. So thanks to the discovery of these people do not have to worry about cycling safety in terms of style as well.

This idea came from Anna Haupt and Terese Alstin who is studying industrial design at the University of Lund, in 2005 as part of the Masters' thesis them.

The Hövding (invisible helmet) is actually an air bag, which uses a helium gas cylinder to inflate when its sensors detect a sudden jolt.

The helmets are also CE labelled, which means they comply with EU safety standards and have undergone a variety of safety tests.
