Understanding how helmet tightening systems affect fit is far more complex than it first appears. In working with BOA, PPS customised its Modular TactileHead to investigate how loads shift across the head during adjustment, uncovering a series of engineering challenges behind reliable pressure measurement.
더 알아보기A palm sensor designed for grip force analysis was never supposed to end up in a neonatal CPR study. But when researchers tried it anyway, the data revealed something uncomfortable: trained clinicians performing the same life-saving procedure were applying vastly different levels of force — and nobody had been measuring it before.
