The American Brand Unit1 designs & builds unique products for Urban Mobility.
Unit1 improves and transforms flawed experiences through design and technology – trying to make them safer, better, faster, smoother.
FARO is the core product of UNIT1 – a smart helmet that delivers style, safety and comfort with an integrated state-of-the-art light system, ventilation, MIPS and fall detection, coming along with the FARO APP.
Faro was designed to bring two opposing forces together: technology and style. A helmet that carries uncompromised functionality but still bears the perception of an accessory you want to wear.
Seamlessly integrated into the shell, FARO’s front & rear lights as well es break lights and turn signals keep the bike helmet clean. The Lights are designed for long-distance visibility and are customizable: they change color and even can be configured into beautiful animations – designed to ‘communicate with cars’ for more safety. The result is a helmet that makes the rider more visible and predictable on the road.
Increased protection for the brain by the latest MIPS Safety System. In case of a hard crash, the integrated fall detection reaches out with a SOS text to an emergency contact sending the accident location.
To maximize light footprint but keep the helmet clean, FARO’s huge LED array is covered beneath a signature Fabric liner. Scratch, dust & water-proof, this fabric only shows the lights when you need them.
FARO was crafted by an award-winning Design Team using a minimalistic aesthetic and clean lines. The result is a truly iconic shape and a helmet you’ll actually want to wear.
