Shock SpotR Helmet Sensor

Shock SpotR Helmet Sensor monitors the acceleration level on your helmet’s outer shell, and activates (turns red) if the acceleration exceeds a predetermined level for more than a certain amount of time. This acceleration level has been calibrated with your helmet type and data from your sport. A red Shok-SpotR™ indicates a severe impact and probable helmet damage, which can be invisible. A significant fraction of the shell acceleration seen in a typical sporting accident or vehicle crash will set it off. The sensor, it’s housing, mounting system, and mounting location have all been carefully calibrated in independent laboratory tests. The tests utilize headform weights to simulate an accident. It is possible to activate the sensor when you are not wearing the helmet also. This may or may not damage the helmet, but it is abusive handling and indicates returning the helmet to its manufacturer to ensure your safety.
