VISIN Brings NASA-Grade Technology to Motorcyclists with New Heated Helmet Visors

STERLING, Va., Nov. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bad weather and visors on motorcycle helmets don’t really mix. When the humidity rises, the visor mists over. That’s just physics for you. So far, your options have been to either try to wipe it or admit defeat and park the bike. Sure, there are products on the market to prolong the inevitable, but if you have ridden a bike in weather bad enough, for long enough, you know that eventually all existing solutions fail, and instead of the road ahead, all you see is the foggy inner surface of your visor. But that’s about to change!

VISIN Brings NASA-Grade Technology to Motorcyclists with New Heated Helmet Visors.

Providing clear vision in any weather is the VISIN Heated Visor Insert that will keep the visor mist-free for up to eight hours. The insert, designed and produced in the UK, has a universal fit, and can be fitted to any helmet. Powered by a multi-purpose, integrated power pack, VISIN is the first – and only – heated universal visor accessory designed specifically to provide bikers, snowmobile riders and other helmet wearers with unrivalled visibility in adverse weather conditions.

The exceptional performance of VISIN substantially exceeds the performance of the closest competitor products in keeping the visor mist-free. VISIN also has a higher light transmission level than other visor inserts, making it the only legal product of its kind in the market for both day- and night-time use.

How Does VISIN Work?

The system consists of a visor insert, a battery pack/controller and a wire connecting the two. The conductive transparent coating of the visor insert allows electricity to pass across the film and instantly generate heat. This heating feature is what makes VISIN different from the competitors. On visors, the heat quickly clears any mist and prevents recurrence of further fogging – providing riders with a clear field of vision without the need to raise visors.

Providing a sustained mist-free field of vision for up to eight hours between charges, and functioning effectively without riders having to open their visors or even helmet vents, VISIN keeps riders dry, warm and safe – enabling them to enjoy the ride and focus on the road ahead with enhanced safety and comfort.

Whilst the system is active, power is continuously applied to the insert. There’s also a boost function which lasts for 40 seconds and increases the power 2.5 times. This rapidly clears the visor in more severe weather conditions. VISIN operates in temperatures between -4°F and 140°F.

How Did VISIN Come About?

The VISIN Heated Visor Insert is the brainchild of Jason Eite from Diamond Coatings Ltd. (Facilities in the US and United Kingdom). The company has a strong track record of supplying the aerospace, automotive, military and medical sectors with coating solutions for demanding applications. One recent project saw them supply custom coatings for the European Space Agency and NASA’s Solar Orbiter exploring and observing the sun.

The team at Diamond Coatings are avid motorcyclists, and having all experienced the unpleasantness of foggy visors, decided to design and build their very own heated demisting visor accessory. Combining the team’s background in the design, development and supply of heater solutions to the aerospace, defence and medical industries with their expert knowledge and skills in creating high-quality conductive optical coatings, Diamond Coatings developed a film that can be easily applied to the visor of any helmet – and so VISIN was created. The product is made within the company’s world-class manufacturing facilities in the UK, with 100% quality in all critical manufacturing processes assured.

Current Range of Products

VISIN’s current product family includes:

Universal Sport insert Universal Enduro insert Shoei Neotec and compatible visors insert Arai Tour-X4 insert Arai Tour-X5 insert Shoei Hornet ADV insert COMING SOON Schuberth C5COMING SOON BMW System 7COMING SOON BMW GS Carbon EVOCOMING SOON Arai VAS-V MaxCOMING SOON Klim Krios

VISIN in the US

The VISIN Heated Visor Insert is available to purchase in the United States online through Moto Machines at https://www.motomachines.com/visin. There are two universal-fit inserts that sell for $222.72 (one for road helmets, one for enduro-style lids), among other helmet-specific fitments, more of which are being added to the range all the time.

Moto Machines is the exclusive importer for VISIN in the US. A family-owned business located outside Washington D.C., Moto Machines also happens to have British roots in the West Midlands, much like VISIN. Moto Machines imports and distributes premium motorcycle accessories from all over the world, and has a vast catalog catering to over 700 different motorcycle models and thousands of quality products to choose from, helping riders travel further and more comfortably. They tirelessly strive to have both the best products on the market and customer service possible.

TURFAN, China, Nov. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — On November 18, the State Grid Turfan Power Supply Company’s Transmission and Inspection Center carried out line inspection on the 220 thousand volt Shuncao line and tested the UAV RTK Beidou signal.

As the first batch of UAV Beidou signal switching pilot units of Xinjiang Electric Power Company, State Grid Turfan Power Supply Company has completed the Beidou signal switching of 67 UAVs, realizing the dual signal source guarantee of UAV operation “GPS+RTK”, reducing the signal error to “centimeter level”, and effectively improving the level of lean operation and maintenance of UAVs.

Up to now, the UAV inspection of the State Grid Turfan Power Supply Company has covered 215 transmission lines of 35 thousand volts and above, with a total length of 4,834 kilometers, and the inspection volume in 2024 will reach 46,230 bases, with a range of 15,374 kilometers, and the total mileage is close to one-third of the equator. The number of the company’s UAV inspection towers has exceeded the number of manual inspections by 3 times, and UAV inspections have become the main force of transmission inspections.

In the next step, the State Grid Turfan Power Supply Company will actively explore a safer and more efficient UAV inspection mode, and actively expand the application of UAVs in power transmission and inspection based on the principle of “solving problems and improving work efficiency”, so as to contribute to the company’s digital and intelligent transformation.
