Bicycle helmets are designed to meet two important needs of cyclists. Firstly, they provide necessary protection against potential injuries, and secondly, they are designed to be lightweight to avoid interfering with the physical efforts of the rider. With the addition of facial protection that doesn’t add unnecessary weight, the VIRGO helmet provides improved safety for the lower part of the face, without compromising on the cyclist’s performance.

When we released a draft version of our project, we received feedback from cyclists and doctors across multiple countries. The level of interest varied depending on the individual experiences and practices of each cyclist, as well as the input from doctors who had treated injuries resulting from cycling accidents. This diverse feedback allowed us to gain a deeper understanding of the needs and concerns of cyclists and doctors in different regions, helping us to refine our project to better meet their needs.
