Slow Down—You Move Too Fast Decelerator Helmet

With the Decelerator Helmet, you can slow time down to enjoy the view.

The Decelerator Helmet - A slow motion for Real Life from Lorenz Potthast on Vimeo.



Look at the slo-mo and stop-motion skateboard example at around 2:30.

The description of how the technology works is also cool.

It makes me wonder if someone wearing the helmet would bump into people if they weren't in real-time. In the video, the subject walks through the crowd but the video is delayed.

As I bump my way through this crowded world, I may be wearing one of these and not know it.

Among everything else I don't understand about this what's up with the monitor on the front of the helmet?

Anyhow, this won't be on my list of things to take with me on the mother ship.

If he walked around D.C. with that thing on he wouldn't last 5 minutes!!
Either it would be stolen(in real-time), or he would be hit by a bus(also in real-time)! :lol: :coolsmile:
P.S. I think that Potthast is German for "has pot!" :coolsmile:

Reminds me of Pichler's TV helmet.
