===ODST helmet===
{{Main|ODST armor}}
The standard helmet worn by [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s, which was originally designed for use with the MJOLNIR system,<ref>'''Halo: Reach''': ODST helmet Armory description: ''"Many technologies initially developed for MJOLNIR have gained widespread adoption."''</ref> was also derived from the CH252 helmet. Like the Beta-5 Division MP helmet, the ODST helmet is enclosed and can provide oxygen for fifteen minutes; unlike the Beta-5 Division MP helmet, however, the ODST helmet features a distinct, more rounded visor. This version is made of titanium and is coated with a heat-dispersing material; the inside of the helmet is lined with padding to provide comfort for the user. The visor is capable of polarizing, fully obscuring the user's face, or depolarizing, becoming nearly transparent, at the user's whim; the visor is generally colored silver-blue, though red,<ref>'''Halo: Helljumper''', ''[[Halo: Helljumper Issue 2|Issue 2]]''</ref> dark orange,<ref>'''Halo 3'''</ref><ref name="H:R"/><ref>'''Halo: Fall of Reach - Boot Camp''', ''Issue 3'' and ''Issue 4''</ref><ref>'''Halo: Landfall'''</ref> silver,<ref name="H:R"/> black,<ref name="H:R"/> and golden polarization are also possible.<ref name="H:R"/>
The newest version of the helmet links with the wearer's [[neural interface]] and features a head-up display; this HUD provides a targeting reticule, weapon and ammunition information, and a bio sign readouts. It also features thermal imaging equipment and [[motion tracker]]s.<ref name="HE"/> The most remarkable aspect of the ODST helmet is the [[Visual Intelligence System, Reconnaissance]] (VISR), which provides on-the-fly access to [[Unified Earth Government|UEG]], [[Colonial Administration Authority|CAA]], and UNSC databases, as well as enabling the storage up to 610 megabytes of secure data. More significantly, VISR provides the user with access to a dynamic [[TACMAP]] and outlines hostile personnel in red, friendly personnel in green, weapons in blue, and objects of interest in yellow. VISR also provides the user with low-light vision enhancement.
