How to make a Daft Punk helmet in 17 months



volpin | July 17, 2010

For more info on the build and process, check out my blog: www.volpinprops.blogspot.com

This video chronicles my odyssey with replicating the iconic gold Daft Punk helmet worn by Guy Manuel de Homem-Christo. Over the process, I took hundreds of pictures, mostly because my crummy digital camera I shoot with has a bum autofocus. What you see are the collection of all of these images, and a little hint of video as well.

Programming for the helmet code was done by James Moss.

Custom PCBs printed by batchPCB.com (designed by me)
Visor vacuum-forming performed by Mike Iverson

THIS PROJECT WAS A ONE-OFF. I AM NOT TAKING ORDERS FOR DUPLICATES.
