Measure Product Safety and Performance
Evaluating the performance of helmets and other protective equipment designed to prevent
injury requires detailed understanding of the pressure distribution on the body surface during
dynamic impacts. XSENSOR’s high speed HS Impact system combined with our thin conformable sensors allow you to accurately measure those pressures and evaluate how diﬀerent
design configurations aﬀect pressure distribution on impact.
Acquiring accurate pressure information during sudden impacts requires fast and responsive pressure
imaging sensors combined with powerful software tools. HS Impact provides detail on surface pressures
before, at, and after impact, allowing engineers to isolate issues and implement eﬀective changes that can thenbe measured and repeated. Our accurate and reliable sensors measure accurately with repeated impacts
without recalibration.

High Speed Data Capture

Impact Data Analysis

HS Impact’s HX sensors contain thousands of sensing points
that are sampled up to 7500 frames per second.* Our custom data logger is easily configured and ensures your datais captured.

XSENSOR’s feature-rich HS Pro V8 software allows you toview live or post-process and then analyze the data. Recordings can be triggered remotely and synchronized with otherhigh speed data acquisition devices allowing you to:

HX sensors are thin and conformable, with a fast response
rate and high-speed calibration that provides consistent andrepeatable results on a cell by cell basis so you are able tocapture exactly what happens during and after an impact.

- View pressure throughout the impact- See product performance throughout the impact scenario- Compare designs and modifications*Frames per second refers to the actual number of frames of data recorded and those can be viewed with the software. Frame rates estimated using theHS Controller in data logging mode.
