IMPACT SENSING BALLISTIC VEST AND METHOD FOR COMMUNICATING DATA THEREOF

摘要

A system for detecting impact on a ballistic vest and determining the extent, if any, of penetration and a resulting trajectory through a wearer of the ballistic vest. The ballistic vest is operable to communicate data to a mobile device to determine which organs have experienced trauma. Data is collected by sensor panels on the ballistic vest for analysis and to calculate the resulting trajectory. The resulting trajectory is correlated to organ locations to determine the potential internal damage to the wearer.

1. A ballistic vest comprising:
ballistic material configured between sensor panels; the sensor panels including sensors configured to trigger impact signals; a processor configured to identify the impact signals from the sensor panels, and determine locations of impacts on given ones of the sensor panels; and a communication module configured to transmit data comprising the location of the impacts on the given ones of the sensor panels to a mobile device.
