Use of Attachments in Motorcycle Helmets

Hi! I would like to request some information with regards to the use of attachments in motorcycle helmet.

I can see while travelling on the road that more and more motorcycle riders are installing small devices like communications devices (FreedCon FX) and cameras (GoPros). 

I was wondering if these kinds of attachments are allowed by law and if these are still within the safety standards of the Department of Trade and Industry which allows them for use.

I am hoping for your kindest consideration for my request. Thank you very much

Thanks for the input.

We are already in contact with the Land Transportation Office. What we want to clarify is that if such attachments are within the safety standards of DTI for motorcycle helmets. I will attach a photo for reference of the device.
