The world's only rear-vision heads-up display helmet manufacturer, Reevu

With a decade of experience in pioneering the safe delivery of data to the near eye
area in their motorsports helmet range, Reevu have decided to employ their expertise in
other market sectors. Markus S, head of development , comments: "Safely developing optical
systems in helmets has led us to understand that a number of other sectors could benefit
from our expertise"
The G-TECHEAD is a fully immersive concept product that will enable the owner to
insert their device into the helmet through its interchangeable carrier. The devices can
then be viewed across the optical cassette, delivering high definition images to the
curved mirrored visor in front of the user's eyes, using their own visual systems instead
of trying to replicate the phenomena with varying results. The invention overcomes the
issue of having to use strong lenses close to the eye or the projection of light directly
onto the retina due to Reevu's patented binocular optical system that reflects the image
over its focal length onto the wide-angle curved visor. The headset will create a fully
immersive world with vibration, high definition sound and visual display, designed to fit
within an encapsulated article of headgear. The environment will enable the user to game
for periods without detrimentally interfering with the natural human interface, something
that gamers will appreciate.
Markus S. further comments: "After reviewing videos of concept augmented reality
designs that show head-up display systems, we feel there is a better, safer way to reach
that goal"
Extensive research into human interface visual systems has enabled the company to
develop an un-paralleled understanding of the science.
Reevu are currently in talks with a number of tech companies about the development and
are currently developing the prototype and media interest so that the project can be
launched on the crowdfunding site Kickstarter for late summer 2015, with a proposed
production date in 2016 and retail price of $299.
"This invention will revolutionize head-up displays, so that they overcome a number of
problems that occur at the human interface." - Graham Steele,Director Reevu.
