A new motorcylce helmet from Joe Doucet is designed with both safety and style in the mind. Titled the Sotera, the helmet features an LED light that pairs with a built-in accelerometer. The helmet, which is constructed from Kevlar and polycarbonate, turns red when the rider brakes and turns white when accelerating. The light then turns off when the wearer is at rest.

Joe Doucet is an award-winning designer who has also created products for the likes of Nike, BMW and Samsung. Learn more about the helmet at Joe Doucet.
