A bit of a different take on this is the Revan. First and foremost this is a dash cam, like many you see in cars as well, loop recording whatever is happening in front of you, mainly for safety\/evidence reasons should you be involved in an accident. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A motorcycle dash cam is not something new. There are quite some out there already. For a good one, have a look at <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/5_XIQPvssE8\">this review video by 2WheelObsession<\/a>. However, except for the Revan being helmet-mounted (in stead of motorcycle-mounted), it is much more than just a dash cam. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Motorcycle <strong>dash cam, action cam, com set and head up display<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Revan is made specifically for motorcycle riding and <strong>it&#8217;s actually a dash cam, action cam, com set and head up display in one<\/strong>! That&#8217;s a whole lot of features packed in a single product:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>First of all, it has a front \u00e1nd rear camera, recording not only what&#8217;s happening in front of you, but also what&#8217;s happening behind you. <\/li><li>It&#8217;s camera quality is above what most dash cams have to offer, opening up other uses for the videos that you shoot ( think GoPro )<\/li><li>It has a remote that can be mounted on the handle bars (to start recording)<\/li><li>It comes with a headset (speakers and microphone that can be installed in your helmet), enabling group calling ( think Sena )<\/li><li>It features a Head Up Display (HUD), which displays all kinds of useful information as it integrates with your phone. The HUD can even show a view of the rear-camera so you can see what&#8217;s going on behind you. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For more details have a look at this promotional video of the Revan:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube alignfull wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Best Helmet Mounted Motorcycle Dash Cam - Revan\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uqmLVl3lJYo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>Where to get one?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So, where can you get the Revan? Well, you can&#8217;t, YET! It doesn&#8217;t exist, YET! The Revan is a Kickstarter project. It&#8217;s already been fully funded and then some, but you can still <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/owlfs\/revan-the-safest-motorcycle-helmet-mounted-dashcam\">back the project by pre-ordering the Revan<\/a> for $700 USD (retail price will be $1000). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Should you get one?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you put down your money, please consider my reservations about this project:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>It wouldn&#8217;t be the first Kickstarter project that failed to deliver<\/li><li>Revan is definitely not the first in the market. Back in 2018 I wrote an article in our newsletter about <a href=\"https:\/\/scenicapp.space\/blog\/moto_intel_report_20180406\/\">HUD helmets and systems<\/a>. Some of those projects no longer exist, while others are still going strong.<\/li><li>The rechargeable batteries, although claimed to be good for about 10 to 12 hours, are quite huge to mount to your helmet. I wonder how it would impact weight, wind drag and wind noise. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Honestly, if it were my money I would not spend it on a Revan just yet. Although it&#8217;s very promising and the sum of a separate high quality dash cam, action cam and com set would definitely be more than $700, I would wait for a second generation product; First of all to see if Revan, unlike some of its early competitors, has the stamina to make it to a 2nd gen product and secondly, because there are bound to be some teething problems with a new high tech product like this, which would probably be resolved in a 2nd gen product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, all in all very promising, but too early for me to spend my money on. However, @Revan, if you would send three test sets over for Tom, Jasper and me, we would be happy to give them a spin and write about our findings! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A little while back I wrote about the Cosmo Smart AR visor, which shows some basic information like speed and direction indicators in the visor.
