Top 5 Smart Helmets by 2023
According to the World Health Organization’s Global Status Report on Road Safety 2018, head injuries happen to be the leading cause of death and major trauma among two- and three-wheeled motor vehicle users. They suggest that proper helmet use can reduce the risk of fatal injuries by 42% and head injuries by 69%.
Proper helmet use
To use a helmet properly, you must first have a proper and effective helmet.
As our world becomes smarter and more connected, we also need to drive smarter. Smart driving doesn’t just mean smart cars! It also means smart driving accessories like smart helmets. Smart helmets are a boon for two-wheeler riders. Not only do they help riders drive smarter and more efficiently, they also enhance the overall road experience.

Benefits of using a smart helmet
There are three major benefits of smart helmets as follows:
1. Driver safety
Smart helmets have upgraded hardware. Most of them use EPS padding in the liner which is more shock resistant.
Smart software can set up distress buttons, track riders, and automatically send alerts to emergency contacts in the event of an accident.
2. No need to carry a smartphone
Audio cues and a HUD display provide information on whether navigation is available inside the helmet.
The smart helmet is fitted with an FM radio and intercom system. You can also make, receive and reject calls, all with just a touch or a voice command.
3. Enhanced Driving Experience
Enjoy the benefits of voice assistants while driving.
View rearview video on the HUD display. Listen to voice prompts for turn-by-turn navigation.
Stay connected with multiple riders through your smart helmet.
Experience an in-helmet music system.
Here are the top 8 smart motorcycle helmets to watch out for in 2023.
1. Torc T14 Blinc Bluetooth Helmet
These smart motorcycle helmets utilize a dual-density EPS system that outperforms all other types of helmet padding. Here’s what EPS means:
Unlike other types of padding, EPS or Expanded Polystyrene does not bounce back after absorbing compressive impact. This helps provide the rider with greater protection than other pads such as rubber.
This is because when a rubber liner is compressed, the material bounces back and transfers some, if not all, of its energy to the area we are trying to protect. As a result, EPS will not bounce impacts back into your skull.
The advanced polycarbonate shell protects the driver by reducing the weight of the shell and dispersing the impact energy.
According to their website, they are the only helmet in this price point to offer an optically correct flat shield.
It also utilizes TORC’s new smooth-locking drop-down internal visor system, which allows you to smoothly lower the visor while on the road.
The smart part of this helmet is that it is equipped with the Blinc Bluetooth system, which easily connects to iOS and Android cell phones, allowing the rider…
