The study of impact protection under high speeds and energies is well suited with the Linear Impactor. When paired with the test table and headform, the system can be used to study high severity head collisions, the performance of helmets or it can also be used to study body armour, vehicle armour, riot shields and personal protective equipment with additional test equipment. The system is available with an adjustable Linear Impactor Table and headforms for the measurement of translational and rotational head kinematics such as the Hybrid III NAP headform. The Linear Impactor operation and data collection is facilitated with the BioDAQ software.
