Urban Helmet / Fahrradhelm

How can the usability and user experience of a modern bicycle helmet be improved was one of the questions of this master thesis. The aim was to motivate as many people as possible to wear a bicycle helmet in order to minimize accidents and their consequences and to make cycling as pleasant as possible. Above all, the process of individual adaptation to the head was made more innovative and the knowledge gained from this was used to develop a new head protection. The handling of the bicycle helmet should be as easy as possible for the user, and it should also be easy to wear with a braid. As a result, the helmet offers a high level of safety and easy adjustment to the head even with long hair.
