Skully Finishes $2.8 Million Indiegogo Round

October 24, 2014 By Dan Rosenbaum

skully diagramSkully Helmets, the virtual reality motorcycle helmet, has finally closed a 2-month funding round on Indiegogo, clearing the $2.8 million mark. The company says it’s the most successful tech funding ever on Indiegogo.

The company has pre-sold 1950 units at about $1500 each. It had originally tried to raise just $250,000, a goal it hit in 8 minutes.

Now comes the hard part: manufacturing and shipping. The AR-1 helmet is slated for a “mid-2015” launch.
