Triax SIM-P: Smart Wearable Monitors Head Impact

Playing sports just for fun or competitively is not without risks. You certainly should not underestimate any head impact injury. Athletes certainly don’t want to stay in the game after a huge hit. Tools such as the Triax SIM-P help athletes and their coaches monitor the severity of all head impacts. This smart wearable device measures all head impacts by calculating its G-force and flags the ones that are problematic.

The SIM-P fits inside a custom headband or skullcap and works for athletes playing soccer, rugby, football, ice hockey, and other sports. The device connects to your smartphone app and syncs impacts recorded. The device not only alerts you of a high impact event but also tracks repetitive lower impacts over the course of a season.
