Starfighter Helmet LED Mod

September 11, 2010

Who says that arduino projects have to be complex?

This mod of a Starfighter helmet [Ian Cole(digitalman2112)] made for his son is just that, nice and simple. [Ian] added some LEDs in place of the fake lights on top of the helmet and a modified Pico Arduino  to control them.

Yes, people will say that an arduino is overkill but it’s quick, simple and easy to add to in the future if required.

It’ll keep his son happy and make it safer to walk around in the dark. It’d be a great design on a bike helmet.
