Painting the helmet

Drying the helmet

Now the helmet should be prepared for a primer and a paint!

Sanding the Helmet

The helmet had to be sanded, so I could get the labels off and get a smooth surface. I used a wet sandpaper and a scotch-brite to sand the helmet.

Deconstruction of the Helmet

Me and Pip pulled all the parts of the helmet apart. The plan is to use this black helmet and the piece that goes over the mouth, I´m going to paint it separately, with a primer and a black glossy spray paint. The next step is to put it together and sand blast the glass front of the helmet. When Mike has made the LED´s, I´m going to place them behind the glass bit and get some sponge to make it comfortable.

Helm 1.0 - Fabrication

I ripped all the padding off the helmet, so now I have to figure out how to take the clip out of it without ruining the helmet.

This is a new technology and possibly the future in Interaction Design

The helmet that we are going to use!

We have decided to use this motorcycle helmet for our Helm 1.0 project.
I think the best way to construct it would be taking most thing apart from the inside of the helmet and then sandblast all the outside and mostly the see through glass at the front. Then I need to place the electronics inside the helmet.
