I am a student and am making a helmet for a class project. I only know basic soldering and am pretty good with computers.
I would like the helmet to have some cool features like lights and moving parts. More specifically:
The helmet will be hallow and can hold items such as batteries / wires / etc. I would like the battery to last at least a year without being replaced with occasional use.
Please see attached image to get an idea.
I don't know enough about electronics to make this happen. Can anyone tell me how I would best set the aforementioned system up? Also, where is the best place to buy the components?
Thank you in advance for your time.

- When you get within 3 feet of the helmet, it turns on EL tape in the left eye and an LED light in the right eye.
- Two fans in either side of the helmet would turn on
- Hidden speaker would play one of 3 programmed sentences (I can record the voice).
