Xeni Jardin: "Born to be unwired"? Motorola and Italian design firm Momodesign teamed up to create a Bluetooth-enabled motorcycle helmet. Something about the combination of bluetooth and motorcycles sounds really scary. Snip from the press release:

Built on the award-winning design of Motorola's popular HS810, the wireless helmet headset is the latest addition to Motorola's leading portfolio of stylish and innovative Bluetooth products. (...) The helmet is stylish and open-faced, its design draws inspiration from air force pilots helmets, with anti-scratch visor and carbon fibre details for fashion conscious people with a modern approach to travel and city life. Whether chatting to friends or work, the Motorola / MOMODESIGN helmet means riders will no longer get tangled up in awkward wires getting on and off their bikes. Taking and making calls is easy as all functions (answer, end, redial, voice dial and volume) can be made from the cover on the helmet. An essential accessory for urbanites who demand to stay in touch at all times, whether in the car, on a bike, in the office or at home. The Motorola / MOMODESIGN helmet offers you seamless communication due to the unique headset module. There need be no break in the conversation when you get off the bike -- just remove the headset module from the helmet, attach it to the neck loop and continue talking -- no one will even know you've changed location!

Momodesign, maker of all sorts of middle-to-high-end automotive and cycling parts has revealed their new Bluetooth Motorcycle Helmet, the result of a collaboration with Motorola. And while the technology itself isn't especially notable - it is just a Bluetooth headset, after all - I think the helmet design is just lovely. I'm a huge fan of open-face helmets, even if they aren't as safe. Jaw-droppingly unsafe, you could say.

And if you're taking a call on the helmet and have stopped riding, the headset detaches and can be worn in a neck loop. Now I just need to get a bike.

RNC Security's Wireless Helmet Cams

RNC Security's Wireless Helmet Cams 08/27/2004 01:48 PM

Over 200 of the patrol officers bussed in as part of the Department of Homeland Security's ramp up to the Republican National Convention will be equipped with wirelessly networked helmet cameras. Each of the helmet cams will broadcast back to a central control room where officials will be able to monitor and compile a bigger picture of what exactly is being seen by the security officers.

The units don't use Wi-Fi, though, so cracking the system used by the security forces might be a little difficult (if that's your thing). Instead, the camera uploads via satellite, which then travels back to the central booth via an encrypted internet stream.

Wouldn't it be great if the public could see those streams, too? Maybe one of the hacker groups will cobble together a free network equivalent.

http://www.super-sc ience-fair-projects.com/

Today your teacher announced that your school is going to have a science fair and students are responsible for exhibiting their projects. What do you feel? Enthusiastic? Despondent? Dreadful? Fearful? Excited?" This statement opens the Super Science Fair Projects site. Actually, whether student or parent, science fair projects, while great ways to get students actively involved in learning the scientific method and problem solving, can be tough assignments. This site may help you with one of the hardest parts: coming up with an idea. The site does a great job of walking the visitor through the steps needed to plan and implement a project, from Choosing a Topic, the Scientific Method, and writing the Project Report. There are even tips on displaying your project, rehearsing, winning over judges, and what to expect the day of the fair. This is definitely a great tool to tap into when planning a science fair project.[From The NSDL Scout Report for Math, Engineering, and Technology, Copyright Internet Scout Project 1994-2003. http://scout.wisc.edu/]

Cambodian hybrid motorcycle/WiFi network

Cambodian hybrid motorcycle/WiFi network 01/26/2004 01:11 AM
In Cambodia, WiFi-equipped motorcyclists pull up to schools, download all the email, drive to the next village, and dump off copies of locally-destined mail, picking up that community's load and delivering it along to the next town.

It is a digital pony express: five Motomen ride their routes five days a week, downloading and uploading e-mail. The system, developed by a Boston company, First Mile Solutions, uses a receiver box powered by the motorcycle's battery. The driver need only roll slowly past the school to download all the village's outgoing e-mail and deliver incoming e-mail. The school's computer system and antenna are powered by solar panels. Newly collected data is stored for the day in a computer strapped to the back of the motorcycle. At dusk, the motorcycles converge on the provincial capital, Ban Lung, where an advanced school is equipped with a satellite dish, allowing a bulk e-mail exchange with the outside world.
