Did you read the article? It is an interesting and seemingly balanced story about balances between innovation and standards, the evolution of a threat model (from death to concussion) and what some of the most recent innovation is. It even covers some of the contemporary anti-helmet arguments.

Oh, I did, and I love the whole Tech/bordering into SciFi angle about how we can build on that concept.

But we can not possibly divorce the bicycle helmet from its' origin, effects and the economical pressures at work here.
