Abstract
A protective headwear assembly is provided having a built-in camera, including a camera lens disposed in a front portion thereof. The camera lens is configured to provide a downward orientation relative to a horizontal plane of the headwear so that the camera captures imaging near the feet of the wearer. In an exemplary embodiment, the headwear is adapted for use by skateboarders and provides, among other things, for the recording of tricks and feet placement/technique. The camera lens can be pivotally mounted to an outer shell of the headwear assembly.
