Blunt force trauma remains one of the most dangerous and life-threatening forms of injury that can be sustained during various physical activities. Though certain effects of blunt force trauma (BFT) may become externally visible (bruises, breaks, contusions, etc), the risk of internal injuries drastically increases the chance of lethality if
With the use and demand for commercial drones experiencing increasing demand across multiple industries and sectors, the question of moderating and standardizing safety efforts has become more important than ever. From agricultural applications to photography, infrastructure inspection, search and rescue efforts, and more, drones are an incredibly diverse tool that
Stab/Slash Testing Biokinetics tests to the NIJ 0115.00 and HOSDB test standards for assessing the penetration resistance against bladed and spike threats. The NIJ standard, “Stab Resistance of Personal Body Armor”, was developed in collaboration with the Police Scientific Development Branch (PSDB) in the UK, for classifying and regulating the
Biokinetics helps drone manufacturers, aftermarket suppliers and operators meet the latest CAA safety requirements, such as those issued by the FAA to address flight operations over people (OOP). Demonstration of compliance with the safety requirements is essential for OOP, where previously only exemption waivers were required.
Less Lethal Testing LESS LETHAL AMMUNITION STANDARDIZATION NEEDS Currently, there is an urgent need from the law enforcement acquisition community to evaluate the safety of less-lethal ammunition such as sponge grenades, and beanbag rounds and rubber bullets. Until recently there has been little to no policy or guidance and they
Body Impact Testing Blunt impact to the human body can cause a spectrum of injury from mild bruising to bony fractures and internal injuries. This context is usually treated separately from head and neck injury, but can include serious injuries to the thorax, abdomen and spine. Laboratory testing typically relies
HEAD IMPACT Testing Head impact can cause skull fractures and focal or diffuse brain injury which can result in threat to life. Impacts to the face and jaw can cause bony fractures and ocular injuries. Human protective equipment must be tested in ways that simulate the mass and energy of
Ballistics Testing At Biokinetics, we believe that there is no substitute for experience. For more than two decades, we have supported military and commercial test programs that focus on protecting the human body from impact threats. Whether it is armour for vehicles or personnel, Biokinetics has the tools, people, and
STAB/SLASH Test Equipment The resistance of body armour to penetration from commercial or street weapons, such as knives or spikes, can be assessed with the Stab Test Apparatus designed to meet international law enforcement and military standards. The system provides the ability to test soft and hard armour meeting the
