Designed to revolutionize traumatic brain injury prevention, an Impact Monitoring Mouthguard serves as both protective gear and real-time head impact measurement tool. Prevent Biometrics is one of several companies developing new sensors that aim to help identify possible concussions and provide data for studies of cumulative effects. The mouthguard seamlessly integrates into the wearer's mouth as a mouthguard while using sophisticated sensors to calculate force, direction, location, and frequency of impacts, relaying this data via Bluetooth for comprehensive assessment. By monitoring players in real-time, Prevent and World Rugby aims to empower coaches to promptly withdraw injured players for comprehensive assessment.
