Thermahelm

From: Thermahelm

Good design improves lives, and this product is no exception. Designed with the most accident-prone motorists on the road in mind , this self-cooling helmet could prevent often-fatal brain injuries resulting from motorcycle accidents.

Fitted to an existing safety helmet, the device would envelope the head and, in the event of an impact, trigger an endothermic (i.e. absorbs heat) reaction that would cool the head. Like putting ice on a swollen knee or ankle injury, the Thermahelm could not only reduce swelling, but also keep potentially fatal temperatures within the helmet from rising.

Even before paramedics are notified of an accident, the wearer could be receiving valuable life-saving medical attention by Thermahelm.

Check out their website for a more in-depth look at the technology, and try to look past the hokey animations and flash videos at a technology that could become an industry standard one day.

Stay innovative.
