Thats an Easy one!  Just use the Shelter Power with the Packing up option.
Take a frame 2 device, (16 slots)
leave 3.5 slots free for the human head (Dead space rules pg 56)
shelter power with packing up option 15% of frame's slots 2.4 slots
Sensor power, Enhanced Senses, (either night vision or telescopic), 100 yds, 90
degree scan area 4 slots
commo power, tiny monitor for output, 2 slots
Targeting power, negates 1 pt of movement penalty, 2 slots
power jack to connect to a spirit battery or a 20pt power pack, 2 slots
Total 15.9 slots
Drain of 4/hr or something.

There you go a helmet that folds itself down to size 1 (which could be viewed as
a large necklace, though in the movie, I think a lot of that device was kept on
his back).  Also, a lot of that stuff can be beefed up with good use of the
miniaturize power, just remember that shelter can't be miniaturized.  Also, if he
want's it to look as snazzy as it did in the movie, I'd say he has to use the
Finish Power.

Can anyone do better?

more to come later.
