For several years, I've seen conceptualized honeycomb-folding helmet proposals. But this one looks like it's closer to reality... and pretty cool, in my opinion. If they can build 'em for a selling price of $5 like they hope, I bet it will be a winner.
It has won the 2016 James Dyson Award. I'd say it's way closer to the "function" end of the form-function scale, than those crazy-looking vacuum cleaners that are apparently the brainchild of Mr. Dyson. (No offense intended; I've never used one of those cleaners, but they look to me like they're way more "form." And I do know they're expensive and there's a huge market for the refurbished ones, which to me calls into question their durability.) And those Dyson bladeless fans? Now there's a solution looking for a problem! But I digress...
