I think some version of this type of high tech motorcycle helmet will become a standard over the next few years. The unit is loaded with the latest in digital technology including a rear facing lidar sensor to  help avoid rear end collisions.

The Intelligent Cranium iC-R motorcycle helmet is a design concept stuffed to the gills with futuristic functionality. We’re talking twin full-colour LED heads-up displays, twin rear-facing cameras, built-in Bluetooth communications, phone connectivity, voice controls, LiDAR rear-ender collision warnings, and an electronically controlled LCD visor that tints itself dark at the touch of a button.

It’s a cool video. Looks like the retail will be $1,600 if they can get it to work.
