Blunt force and blast overpressure monitoring for service members.

Prevent Biometrics has been used since 2017 in military applications to monitor blunt forces and blast overpressure - assisted by the U.S. Department of Defense, which has awarded Prevent and its collaborators over $8 million in competitive, peer-reviewed funding.

Prevent Combination Sensor

The only system that measures blunt force and blast overpressure from a single sensor.

The "Combo Sensor" simultaneously estimates and reports blunt-force head impacts and blast overpressure in real time. Data uploads automatically over wireless sync - no effort from the user - and is available immediately for review, or integrated into other platforms via API.
