Pallas Helmet

Pallas Marine Helmet

A hardened ballistic plastic/CADM helmet with retractable visor for a full seal, the Pallas contains an advanced multi function communications/cpu. Operated by pupil tracking and a verbal short hand, it allows a Marine full hands free operation of the unit while concentrating on fighting or attention intensive tasks. The Helmet's multi function communications/cpu unit can send the Marine's coordinates to units nearby, perform mapping and navigation functions, and project command and mission data on the VISOR. It also includes a helmet-to-helmet infrared communications link, allowing discrete, short distance communications between individual marines while lessening the chances of interception, com signal encryption, as well incorporating standard com badge traffic. As mentioned above, the Pallas' VISOR also operates as a datascreen for the user's Taccorders and other linked or integrated systems. The VISOR's systems open programming structure allows it to accept multiple signals and upgrading on the field. It also features a 360* proximity and target/threat tracking display, low light vision enhancement with rapid polarization, and audio enhancement/suppression, to prevent sight/hearing loss. Sensory enhancements and protections can be modified to accommodate different species' sensory requirements, though after a certain point of acuity, the helmet is configured to allow a Marine's senses to work without the helmet's interference. Each Marine's helmet is equipped and programmed to assist them in tasks specific to their position and MOS- such as target designation, range finding, chemical analysis, etc. Officers and NCOs get units with more processing power and a broader range capabilities and command functions- including signal interception, analytical functions and troop status readouts. The Pallas also rapidly adjusts for casualties , so that the chain of command to be sustained among widely dispersed troops regardless of casualties. This function saves minutes of confusion in emergency situations... thus saving lives., It should also be noted that the Helmet can be modified to fit the ergonomic, mission, and to a limited extent, aesthetic needs of the individual Marine.
