Introducing Mesh Intercom To The Cycling World

Mesh Intercom™ makes its debut in our cycling helmet line. With the press of a button, you can communicate with other R1 EVO users within a half-mile (900 meters) of you. Multi-channel open mesh supports nine channels, letting you switch between different groups on different frequencies. Now you can have conversations going with your family, friends, or whomever else is along for the ride!

Voice Commands Allow You To Take Control Of Features

The R1 EVO accepts voice commands, giving you control of features by speaking rather than pressing a button. Simply say “Hello Sena,” and after the helmet response, you can tell it to turn on the tail light, enable Mesh Intercom™, play music, or configure settings.

Built-in speakers keep your ears clear of obstructions, leaving you attentive to traffic cues while you listen to fellow riders or your music.

Connect To Your Smart Devices And Other Riders With Bluetooth

Bluetooth technology allows you to connect to your smartphone, enabling you to make phone calls, listen to your music, hear GPS navigation, and connect to fitness apps. The tech also connects you to other R1 EVO users to converse using a multi-way intercom.

As far as I am aware the only camera option is a standalone attachment, such as the Prism Tube WiFi
