The real idea here for the “U-met” helmet is for a hands-free device for first responders–fire fighters, security personnel, and rescue workers. It is not for Cam-Girls, but somehow it sounds like Japanese AV industry might be more interested in the device.

For more info, see the official websites of Tanizawa Corporation for the “U-met” in Japanese and vague English.
