Why should we back?
Intro
Welcome to KickstartNew! Today we’re featuring a project that’s redefining what an in-car smart display system can do. The CHIGEE AIO6 is a 6-inch smart HUD (Head-Up Display) designed for motorcycle and car enthusiasts who want a safer, smarter, and more connected riding experience. With advanced features like real-time navigation, Bluetooth calling, wireless CarPlay/Android Auto, and helmet camera connectivity, this compact device offers a futuristic upgrade to any vehicle dashboard.
Why should I back this project?
-
Safer Riding with Head-Up Display: The AIO6 is designed to minimize distractions by keeping vital information like navigation, speed, and incoming calls directly in your line of sight. It improves safety, especially for motorcyclists who need hands-free and eye-level access to data while on the move.
-
Versatile Connectivity: It supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, ensuring seamless integration with your smartphone for music, navigation, calls, and more—without needing to look down at your phone or fumble with wires.
-
Helmet Camera Integration: The AIO6 can connect to CHIGEE’s own helmet camera (ROCK), giving you live video display and recording capabilities. Whether for safety, fun, or documentation, this adds a unique value that most smart HUDs don’t offer.
-
Compact, Stylish Design: At only 6 inches, the AIO6 fits perfectly on both motorcycles and cars. It doesn’t clutter your dashboard and features a high-brightness touchscreen that’s visible even under sunlight.
-
Smart Software Updates: The CHIGEE team continues to improve the system via OTA (Over-the-Air) updates, so your investment keeps getting better over time with new features and fixes.
-
Built for Riders by Riders: The AIO6 is clearly built with bikers in mind—from glove-friendly touch controls to the rugged and weather-resistant design. It’s not just a repurposed car gadget; it’s engineered for two-wheel life.
What are the potential drawbacks you should consider when you back it?
-
Niche Market: While it’s advertised for both cars and motorcycles, most of the unique features (like helmet cam support and HUD emphasis) are tailored more for riders. Car owners might not fully utilize everything it offers.
-
Early Software Stability: Like many tech Kickstarter projects, the software may go through growing pains in the early stages. While updates are promised, some users might face minor glitches or feature gaps at launch.
-
Helmet Cam Sold Separately: If you’re hoping to take full advantage of the camera integration, keep in mind that the ROCK helmet cam is a separate purchase. This increases the total investment if you want the full package.
The reliability of the project
-
Proven Track Record: CHIGEE is not new to the scene. They’ve previously launched and delivered motorcycle-focused tech products, establishing themselves as a reliable brand in the riding tech niche.
-
Functional Prototypes: Unlike concept-only projects, the AIO6 already has working prototypes and detailed demo videos. This boosts confidence that the product is not just theoretical—it’s already functioning in real-world conditions.
-
Strong Community Engagement: CHIGEE is actively communicating with potential backers, answering questions, and sharing development updates. This transparency is a great indicator that they’re committed to delivering on their promises.
-
Backer-Focused Development: Features like OTA updates and software tweaks show that CHIGEE is thinking long-term and listening to its user base. They aim to grow the AIO6 ecosystem over time, not just deliver and disappear.
