Blast Effects

SAP – Six Accelerometer Package

sapThe Six Accelerometer Package (SAP) measures the linear and rotational accelerations of a mannequin headform in all six degrees of freedom for kinematics analysis or for use with head injury assessment functions.

The SAP is designed for blunt impact, behind armour ballistic strike and blast loading environments. Whether you need head acceleration, velocity and/or translation data, the unique sensor layout and computational methods offer improved accuracy in a more economical package.

BOM – Blast Occurrence Monitor

ied_simwebMedics can treat the injuries they see, but what about ones they don't know about? The Blast Occurrence Monitor (BOM) is used by field medics, commanding officers and soldiers on the battle front to identify exposure to blast overpressure and subsequent possibility of traumatic brain injury (TBI).
