I had an interesting conversation at a recent snow trade show with a guy who has started a company to produce helmets with gps, camera, video, radio communication, WiFi, etc all built in and controlled by a powerful mini computer.
His original idea was to service first response emergency workers so they could instantly communicate a scene to their controllers and co-workers. They have decided to target the adventure sports market now as well, starting with the snow sports.
Of course, the first question I wanted and answer to was, "what is the type and brand of GPS chip in the helmet?". It is some Russian chip and it was the one thing he didn't know the technical details of. He is getting back to me on that. I told him all it needed was a HUD and he was nearly there! 
The downside is that he anticipated a price of over $800, and they were still working on the waterproofing level.

For some reason unknown to me I cannot embed the home page video.
But this video should work:

You forgot about such essential like Head up Display,
If will be useful for path , track direction or showing actual speeds and other parameters.
Maybe even rear view camera.
I guess that guy could copy most from fighter pilot helmet already.
EDITED >>> Sorry you covered it already and HUD stand for Head up Display, That only means that there are more people like me that wish the newest and the best.
Looks cool and the guys are smart enough to pitch to government agencies. Those guys will have no problem justifying using public money to buy a $800 helmet. It may be a harder sell to private buyers. Nice ergonomics. Maybe they should sell an upgradeable helmet and you can add the tech you need or gradually add things so the initial sticker price is not a sales killer.
I like this too
