Brighten every journey

Inspired by a brightly shining beacon, the Omne Beacon Mips ensures you shine bright on every ride and are always seen when you hit the road.

With a built-in red light on the back, the helmet makes it easier for others to see you when you're cycling in low light conditions and draws attention to your presence when you're riding around town.

The lightweight helmet features an EPS liner that provides protection from a wide range of impacts, making the helmet ideal for everything from daily commutes to weekend club rides. The 360° adjustable fit system makes it easy to find a secure and comfortable fit, and the integration of the highly integrated and nearly invisible Mips Integra improves rotational impact protection.

Technologies used

In this chapter we explain the technologies that the manufacturer uses in this product.

MIPS
The MIPS® safety system is designed to provide additional protection for helmets in a variety of accidents. In certain impact situations, the MIPS system can reduce dangerous forces that might otherwise be transmitted to the helmet wearer's head.

1. Conventional helmets are designed and tested for straight impact. However, in most cases the impact occurs at an angle, which can cause rotational movements to the head.

2. These rotational movements can cause brain injuries.

3. The low-friction shell is intended to help reduce rotational movements to the head in certain cases of oblique impact.

Straight impact - oblique impact

The brain is typically more sensitive to rotational motion than linear motion because it has similar shear strength to water or gel. When rotational motion causes different areas of the brain to move away from one another, the tissue can be stretched, causing concussions or other brain injuries.

Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions and more severe brain injuries from an oblique impact to the head. The MIPS system consists of a low-friction shell that is attached inside the helmet. The low-friction shell is designed to slide slightly inside the helmet in the event of an accident, allowing forces to be directed away from the head. It is intended to help reduce the risk of brain injuries.

Most traditional helmets are designed for a straight impact, but in most cases the impact occurs at an angle. The low-friction shell can reduce the rotational forces of an oblique impact.

Security system based on the brain

Unlike traditional helmets, which are designed and tested primarily for straight impact, the MIPS system's low-friction shell mimics the brain's own protection system against rotational motion. The cerebrospinal fluid is our natural protective system that allows the brain to move offset from the skull.
