Abstract: A helmet including a lighting system integrated into said helmet, the lighting system comprising a first layer; light emitting means mounted to said first layer; controller means mounted to said first layer for controlling said light emitting means; wiring means for linking said light emitting means to said controller means; a second layer fixably attached to said first layer thereby providing an area between said first and second layer for said light emitting means, controller means, and wiring means; power means fixably attached to said second layer for powering said controller and light emitting means; and operating means functionally linked to said controller means for operating said controller means. The application also discloses lighting system contained in a shell that that can be attached to an existing helmet. This application also discloses a lighting system contained in a flexible material that can be fitted onto an existing helmet.

Abstract: Helmets and helmet lighting systems for use in demanding environments, such as fire, rescue, police and military applications. The helmets and systems provide one or more of high levels of light emission, long operational life, waterproofing/ability to operate in wet or submerged environments and relatively low weight. In some configurations, a helmet comprises a lighting system including an exterior layer and an interior layer applied to a shell of the helmet. In some configurations, a lighting module having an internal layer and an exterior layer is attached to an underlying helmet. In some configurations, a lighting system includes pods and/or strips containing a source of light. The pods or strips can be attached to an underlying helmet.

Abstract: A helmet includes a lighting system integrated into the helmet. The helmet includes a first layer and a second layer. The helmet includes a plurality of light emitting devices between the first layer and the second layer. A controller is configured to control the light emitting devices. A power source is configured to power the light emitting devices and the controller. The light emitting devices are operably connected to the controller and the power source. In some configurations, a lighting system can be contained in a shell that that can be attached to an existing helmet. In some configurations, a lighting system is contained in a flexible material that can be fitted onto an existing helmet.
