"Their paths converging was almost inevitable, and the result is a smart accessory for riders that shifts helmet technology into an entirely new category. The Shoei GT-Air 3 Smart takes the familiar touring shell and transforms it into the first full-face helmet with a fully integrated AR heads-up display, created to deliver essential riding data without ever diverting attention from the road."
"Developed jointly by Shoei and EyeLights, the GT-Air 3 Smart embeds a nano-OLED microdisplay directly into the visor structure. The projection appears about three meters ahead of the rider's line of sight, presenting speed, navigation cues, call notifications, radar alerts, and even a compact map overlay. The Full HD display uses a 3,000-nit output so the information stays visible in strong daylight, and EyeLights claims the system can reduce reaction time by more than 32 percent compared to glancing down at external screens."
"Beneath the new visual technology, the helmet maintains Shoei's established safety foundation. Its shell is constructed from the brand's Advanced Integrated Matrix composite, which is an engineered blend of fiberglass and organic fibers used across the GT-Air 3 lineup. Apparently, it carries both DOT and ECE 22.06 certifications. Ventilation comes from a wide lower intake and upper intake with internal channels cut into the EPS liner, along with exhaust ports that release heat and moisture."
Shoei and EyeLights collaborated to create the GT-Air 3 Smart, a touring full-face helmet that integrates a nano-OLED AR microdisplay directly into the visor. The projection appears roughly three meters ahead of the rider and shows speed, navigation cues, call notifications, radar alerts, and a compact map overlay. The Full HD display delivers up to 3,000 nits for visibility in strong daylight and is claimed to reduce reaction time by more than 32 percent versus glancing at external screens. The helmet retains Shoei's Advanced Integrated Matrix composite shell, DOT and ECE 22.06 certifications, and multi-channel ventilation with internal EPS channels and exhaust ports.
