Project Overview
• Alleviate risks by providing a cushion
between the player’s head and the world
• Real time monitoring of player impacts
• Hardware in high stress environment
• Keeping player happy while improving
functionality of an old tool
Project-Specific Success Criteria
• An ability to recharge and monitor an
integrated (lithium ion) battery.
• An ability to sense impact data using 3-D
accelerometers.
• An ability to alert sideline personel when a
dangerous hit is received.
• An ability to log/timestamp impact data on a
removable memory device (SD card).
• An ability to remotely monitor real-time impact
data and tune impact detection thresholds via
an embedded web server.
