Reducing Injury Through Reliable Testing of Sport Protective Gear
Protective sports equipment is essential for protecting athletes at all levels, from amateur to professional play. To perform as necessary, rigorous testing against a wide range of standards set by global leaders like NOCSAE, ASTM, and ISO is crucial. At Biokinetics, we understand the importance of accurate performance testing to ensure equipment performs as intended […]
Reasons Blunt Trauma Testing Is Important For Protective Equipment
Protective gear is essential for keeping law enforcement members, military personnel, and security teams safe in intense and unpredictable conditions. While the popular focus tends to be on protecting against the most obvious threats—stabbings and ballistic injuries—less lethal threats caused by non-penetrative impacts pose a different challenge. Blunt force trauma (BFT) can result from impacts […]
How Does Helmet Testing Equipment Elevate Safety Standards?
Wearing a helmet is one of the most important ways to protect ourselves from serious injury. Whether being used while playing recreational sports, on an industrial job site, or in high-risk fields like military and law enforcement sectors. Helmet testing helps ensure protective equipment performs as intended when it matters most and helps to evaluate […]
Important Ways Ballistic Testing Equipment Empower Safety Standards
Ballistic testing is a critical process that ensures the development of protective gear that can withstand the dynamic and unyielding demands of military personnel, law enforcement personnel, and other high-risk industries. The ability to withstand high-velocity projectiles and impact forces is often a matter of life or death for individuals wearing body armour. Continuous advancements […]
Important Emerging Helmet Testing Methods For Better Player Safety
Football is a high octane, high-impact sport that runs the constant risk of head injuries for participants, particularly concussions and traumatic brain injuries. As our understanding of brain trauma continues to deepen, so does the undeniable need for more sophisticated football helmet testing methods. While traditional impact tests have help set existing standards, recent technological […]
Performance You Can Trust: Why Ballistic Testing Is Important
The performance and reliability of protective gear and ammunition in real-life scenarios are non-negotiable. In high-stakes environments like military operations, law enforcement, and security, ballistic testing is a critical component that ensures equipment acts as intended when it matters most. Thorough ballistic testing is critical for determining how projectiles behave when they encounter barriers, including […]
Ballistic Testing For Less Lethal Weapons: What You Need To Know
Less lethal weapons, including rubber bullets, bean bag rounds, and stun guns, play a crucial role in modern law enforcement, military, and security practices, enabling users to exercise control while minimizing the risk of harm in dangerous, highly dynamic situations. Designed to incapacitate rather than kill, these weapons can be extremely effective for crowd management and threat […]
Advancing Considerations for Impact Test Equipment: Leveraging Biokinetics’ Solutions for Superior Performance
For industries where product safety, reliability, and durability are non-negotiable, impact testing is a critical process that helps protect human users from serious threats of harm. From body armour that’s used by law enforcement and military personnel to personal protection equipment (PPE) used in the construction industry, protective material used in the automotive and aerospace […]
Exploring the Risks of Illegally Operated Commercial Drones
The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), better known as drones, continues to become increasingly common in today’s commercial sphere. With continual advancements in their technology and capabilities, drones have become vital for a wide range of applications, including aerial surveillance and photography, commercial delivery services, agriculture purposes and more.While the safety regulation industry has […]
