The Rooster Posted November 11, 2019 Author Share #3 Posted November 11, 2019 Under the pads its got a Trauma sensor. When it comes in, I'l update this with better pics of the sensor. I'l see what I can find out about these in the interim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aznation Posted November 11, 2019 Share #4 Posted November 11, 2019 Wow, that's pretty neat Dave. I've never seen nor heard of those before. Cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rooster Posted November 11, 2019 Author Share #5 Posted November 11, 2019 Wow, that's pretty neat Dave. I've never seen nor heard of those before. Cool! Thank you Matt! Ive been reading a little about these. Very little in fact but Im going to see what I can find out. Apparently if you are injured in say an IED blast, they can measure the force etc etc registered on the helmet. Not sure what good that does? But Its interesting for sure. https://www.army.mil/article/26829/helmet_sensors_providing_data_that_may_decrease_brain_injury https://sftt.org/military-helmet-sensors-big-contracts-but-no-findings/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1canpara Posted November 11, 2019 Share #7 Posted November 11, 2019 Thank you Matt! Ive been reading a little about these. Very little in fact but Im going to see what I can find out.

Thats my understanding of it anyway. Maybe some others who have actually used these can fill in the blanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rooster Posted November 11, 2019 Author Share #8 Posted November 11, 2019 8 year old video off of youtube. Concearning the sensors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedLegGI Posted November 11, 2019 Share #9 Posted November 11, 2019 Nice lid and harder to find with the TBI sensors. These were issued out to units within the 101st for trial during one of their deployments. This is either the second or third generation sensor they trials with the first one being an externally mounted version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
