Any good HUD options?
I like the idea of adding HUD technology to vehicles, whether it displays directly on the helmet visor, or windshield, it is all good. I find very little info on google, and you tube, and find only two products, which I don't even know is still available, as the dates on most of the articles are pretty old. Those are the SPORTVUE, and Veypor.
Has anyone tried either a commercially available product, or experimented with your own idea?

Ive always wanted to do it, searched it years before I even had my bike, I have some ideas. Its just hard to get your eyes to focus on something that close to your face. I think I'm going to play around with the gear gauge and see if I can make something with that, that will fit on the helmet

This looks like an unbelievable price: http://www.amazon.com/Motion-Researc...3872089&sr=8-1
Makes me wonder if it is one of the last units. If business wasn't so slow during the summer, I would be the Ninjette guinea pig Anyone else wanna try - please let us know how it is.

I'm thinking more like a gps visor overlay that has a faint arrow where you need to turn. Kinda like forza motorsports line guide that turns red when you need to brake hard. |

You couldn't wear these with a fullface street helmet, but I would kill for a Pair of These when riding dirt.
.... or for walking around in everyday life, for that matter |

There's guy from a local forum I'm on that is developing a type of blind spot monitoring system for motorcycles that will have a hud type display on the helmet. So far it looks really interesting and hes hoping that he'll have a working prototype by the end of the summer last I heard.

Its always cool to wear glasses
I couldn't find the nerd with glasses emoticon so put this instead. Any way in terms of my HUD don't even plan on seeing it until the end of summer. Most likely a proper version will be done by the end of this year. Mine's somewhat similar to the one featured on engadget.

Definetly and thats how it should be. The one I am working on is based on a hobby of mine, so even if there was a final version, I wouldnt be selling it to the masses. Might sell the idea etc to some one but thats about it. So i really don't have a reason to compete with google in terms of when it is released, and currently with school, work and everything else I wouldn't have the time to.
