Skully AR- 1, is the world’s first helmet to feature with the built-in 180° Blindspot Camera on the back and heads up display for the safety and unparalleled situational awareness and focusing on what matters most and the road ahead.
Skully is the crowdfunding campaign project and raised more than $14 million from the investors and bakers. The company has reportedly mentioned that it will deliver all the 3000+ helmets to the customers by this summer. But surely this is not going to happen.

Weller said in the phone conversation that “I am shocked and deeply saddened that they would now shut this company down. We were raising a Series B to continue raising capital but then we had a buyer; I’m almost dubious to this.”
