New Invention - FITGuard The Impact Indicating Mouthguard For Athletes

FITGuard -The Brain's Check-Engine LightSupport this Project Here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-fitguard-impact-indicating-mouthguardForce Impact TechnologiesCurrently on Reddit's AMAThe FITGuard™ is the first mouthguard that can measure the force of an impact and illuminate LEDs to visually display the force from the impact. The color-coded LEDs provide an instant visual indication to the coaches and officials... when a player needs to come off of the field to be properly evaluated.What we doForce Impact Technologies provides a comprehensive approach to identify, document, and respond to potential head injuries in athletic activities.Our FITGuard™:Measures linear and angular accelerationProcesses those inputs through our proprietary algorithmLEDs in the mouthguard illuminate to indicate when a user should be removed from playThe LEDs have a blue indication for a “medium” force impact and a red indication for a “severe” force impactThe LEDs provide an instant, visual, indication to coaches and officials, that a player should be removed from the fieldBluetooth technology to transmit impact data to our FIT smartphone applicationThe LEDs do not signal that a player has suffered a concussion, rather the LEDs indicate that an impact was severe enough that the player should seek a more comprehensive evaluation. After a severe impact, the FIT application prompts individuals to perform an Acute Concussion Evaluation (A.C.E.) for the player that has been removed for play.The A.C.E. does not diagnose a potential concussion, however, the results will be useful to provide to a physician, when they are making their official clinical diagnoses. In addition, the impact data (without any names or identifying information) is uploaded to our servers in hopes that it will create the first database of cranial forces in youth sport. This is important because it will allow further research to be conducted to better understand the risk athletes expose themselves to.We target youth athletics because this demographic is the most vulnerable to concussions and typically has the fewest medical support resources at the time of an incident. The youth of today are the stars of tomorrow!Earn a free FITGuard™ by referring friendsHelp us by spreading the word via email and social media.
