Superior vision, exceptional ease of use

Atomic

Revent Visor ski helmet

The Revent Visor is a groundbreaking ski helmet with an integrated visor that combines the flexibility and fit of ski goggles with the superior vision of a full-visor helmet. Developed in close cooperation between Atomic, the world leader in winter sports equipment, and our designers and engineers, this product represents an unprecedented and innovative approach to full-visor helmets.

Unparalleled ease of use and field of vision in a visor helmet

Atomic formulated strict requirements for the unique connection between the visor and the helmet. An ideal visor should offer an unobstructed field of vision combined with intuitive operation in all conditions. It must be a perfect fit for different facial shapes while mimicking the versatility of goggles. In addition, a visor must be able to withstand the challenging conditions of skiing: snow, wind, water and internal condensation.

Rapid ideation and testing

During the process, countless ideas and concepts were exchanged between npk design and the experts at Atomic. Promising new concepts were tested on various helmet prototypes and examined by Atomic for ease of use and reliability. The agile process, underlined by quick prototyping and testing, enabled us to filter the most promising ideas. The result is a completely new mechanism with perfect integration of the visor and helmet.

Intensive exchange and hands-on collaboration

The design of the visor mechanism actually influenced the design of the helmet itself. How can the visor and moving parts be integrated, how much space is required for this, and how do these parts produce an attractive whole? The entire process was implemented at a fast pace in a hybrid model based on continuous digital exchange and multiple hands-on workshops with active co-creation.

Product development in a hybrid physical-digital environment

To facilitate the digital and physical working environment, we used a hybrid design method: helmet shapes and visor integration were explored in sketches and clay models, which were then scanned and converted into CAD models. In iterative feedback loops with Atomic, we refined the shape of the helmet, creating a product that not only meets the functional and manufacturable requirements but also embodies the powerful design language of the renowned Atomic brand.
