AIRSAFE — Inflatable Urban Bicycle Helmet Concept

Technical Abstract

AIRSAFE is an inflatable bicycle helmet prototype designed to make micro-mobility safety effortless for bicycle and e-scooter riders.

Bicycle sharing and e-scooters have exploded across cities, yet fewer than 15% of riders carry helmets due to awkward bulk. AIRSAFE zips into a pocket-sized pod and inflates on demand.

Core Innovation & Hypothesis

“An inflatable bicycle helmet can achieve 360° cranial impact protection conforming to EN 1078 while weighing less than 350 grams.”

UNVALIDATED PROTOTYPE STUDY. Conceived by Faheem Pappat. Pending physical lab testing.

360° Air Cushion with Durable Outer Fabric Shell

A lightweight multi-chamber pneumatic structure wrapped in durable ballistic fabric, featuring a rear rotary dial fit adjuster.

Ultra-portable for bike-share and scooter commuters.
360° air cushion coverage.
High airflow channel design.
This is a preliminary engineering concept exploration maintained by WesbondX for academic, research, and technical peer-review purposes.
