Helmet Comprising Visor Position Detection and Associated Helmet Position Detection

The general field of the invention is that of helmet position detection systems for aircraft including a helmet comprising a substantially spherical mobile visor that is able to occupy a position of use and a stowage position, the visor being arranged in front of the pilot's eyes in the position of use. The helmet according to the invention comprises detection means for detecting the position of the visor and the helmet position detection system comprises means making it possible to introduce an angular correction due to the mobile visor in the orientation measurements when the visor is detected in the position of use by the detection means. The detection means are preferably optical sensors.
