Okay, so yes, this is news relating to bicycle helmets and we’re not sure the technology could be applied in the (near) future (at least) for motorcycle and scooter riders, but it’s pretty impressive stuff nevertheless.

We found this story over at Jalopnik.com who reported on this invention by two Swedish women. We like the concept and raise a glass or three to the success of this product because if it encourages a few more cyclists to wear a (n invisible) bike helmet, then well done everyone.
For the full story, including a video of the background and how it all works (believe us, it is very intriguing and no, it does not appear to be a hoax either!) follow this link.
