Audio quality from the masters of sound

The Sena Impulse offers an unparalleled audio experience with SOUND BY Harman Kardon. The speakers and microphone were designed by the audio experts at Harman Kardon for premium sound in the helmet. The internal construction has been optimized for harmonious sound attenuation of the SOUND BY Harman Kardon speakers. The precisely positioned premium speakers and internal acoustic design combined with the new microphone make the Impulse sound experience unparalleled. The speakers deliver crystal clear sound to the driver's ears, while the microphone uses a newly developed sensor to ensure reliable communication while driving.

Mesh and Bluetooth communication

The Impulse features mesh as well as Bluetooth intercom platforms, allowing users to connect to virtually any Sena headset. Mesh Intercom ensures stable and reliable connections and flexible routing of intercom signals, and provides an exceptional level of intercom audio quality with two mesh modes: Multi-Channel Open Mesh Intercom™ and Group Mesh Intercom™.

Multi-Channel Open Mesh Intercom (Open Mesh) is the industry's first channel intercom system. Like traditional CB radios, Open Mesh mode allows the user to switch between nine channels. Open Mesh is activated with just the push of a button to connect to the intercom network and supports a virtually unlimited number of users within an extendable range of up to 8 km (minimum 6 riders with a distance of 1.6 km).

For private group calls, the Impulse offers Group Mesh intercom mode. Group Mesh supports a single, private group for up to 24 participants and offers the same range as Open Mesh. To ensure privacy, only invited users can participate in the Group Mesh chat.

The classic four-way Bluetooth intercom is still an option to connect Impulse with other Sena Bluetooth users. Finally, you can use an Impulse helmet to connect to a Sena Bluetooth user and act as a bridge between them and a Group Mesh".

Modular design and high quality features

One of the many features of the Impulse is the LED tail light. The DOT and ECE certified Impulse has a comfortable modular design and a lightweight fiberglass composite shell. The ventilation system with four air inlets ensures a constant air flow. The helmet is equipped with a retractable sun visor that protects the rider from excessive glare. The Impulse is Pinlock® compatible and a Pinlock® anti-fog lens is included. The ratchet strap keeps the helmet comfortably and securely in place while riding.

Intuitive voice commands allow you to focus on what's important

Voice commands allow the rider to control helmet functions without having to take their hands off the handlebars, so for example a phone call can be answered or the mesh intercom switched on by voice command. Voice commands are supported in 8 languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese and Russian.

By accessing the smartphone's digital assistants, Impulse can connect to Google Assistant and Apple's Siri via voice commands and access your smartphone's functions. Just say, "Hey Siri" or "Hey Google"! I'm out of petrol. Please find me directions to the nearest petrol station".

Automatic firmware updates & Pogo charging port

With the Impulse, we are providing a new charging system that works via a magnetic Pogo connection. The new charging port, located on the back of the helmet, is securely sealed so that the port is protected even during a rain ride. Furthermore, the Impulse has a built-in WiFi circuit to automatically update the firmware while charging. Talk time is up to 10 hours when using Mesh Intercom™ and up to 18 hours when using Bluetooth Intercom.

Keep everything under control with the Sena Motorcycles App

The new Sena Motorcycles app gives users the ability to visually configure their Impulse helmet settings. Download the app to customize Impulse's settings and features so you can, for example, manage channel settings for Open Mesh, set up a private group for Group Mesh or control the LED tail light from the Sena Motorcycles app. The Sena Motorcycles app is of course available in the App Store or Google Play shop.
