Force Measuring Helmet

Head injuries have always been a menace for recreational sport, and now growingly for commuting cyclists. Skiing for example, where a quarter of all injuries after collision are to the head; or more broadly, cycling, which produces the most injuries each year, show that head injuries are on the increase. Thankfully, the use of helmets is increasing, reducing the risks of injury. Unfortunately, helmets are not always successful in reducing the damage. Goal of the research : learn in detail the role of helmets during injuries and a method for measuring the force of impact during an accident Mean : design an electronic device that would measure the force of impact using force sensitive resistors and accelerometers
