5G Helmet
Innovation
The 5G Helmet is a prototype that transforms a cyclist’s helmet into a real-time safety system, powered by Telstra’s 5G. Using AI-driven video analytics, ride data, and V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) technology, it gives riders instant audible alerts for road hazards, congestion, and accident zones, warns of potential collisions between vehicles and cyclists, and even detects threats like opening car doors by connecting to smart city infrastructure. Offering Australia’s cycling community a new era of safety on the road.
