An infrared motorcycle helmet device is provided. The infrared motorcycle helmet device includes a helmet. The helmet has an opening on a front portion of the helmet. An external visor is placed on an external surface of the helmets. The external visor can be moved into a position over the opening as desired. An infrared camera is placed on an external surface of the helmet.

Protective helmet

A protective helmet including a visor attached to the external sides of the helmet shell. The shell includes substantially flat mount surfaces on each side which correspond with substantially flat portions on the respective ends of the visor. A fastener hole on the shell aligns with an access hole on the visor so that the two elements can be releasably fastened. The access hole provides space for a fastener to protrude out from the surface of the shell, allowing the visor to sit flush against the shell when fastened together. The helmet may include chin straps which are attached to the inner surface of the shell. The helmet may also include a catch strip on the front of the visor which protrudes from the visor such that it can prevent a cloth helmet cover (sometimes used in games such as Roller Derby) from easily sliding off the helmet.
