Motorola and MOMODESIGN today announced their first Bluetooth enabled motorcycle helmet that will make it possible for motorcycle riders to scoot around town and stay connected.
The joint venture should make communications between rider and pillion – or even riders on separate bikes (as long as they are within range) much easier.
The open-face helmet features a cover that allows all normal mobile/cellphone functions (answer, end, redial, voice dial and volume) to be made. Conversations can be continued when off the bike by removing the headset module from the helmet and attaching it to a neck loop.
The battery lasts for up to five hours talktime and 100 hours standby time.
Availability is expected in early 2005.
