Helmet damage sensor?

Nope!! Never seen anything like it. I think you'd know if your helmet was cracked or not, you head would probably be throbbing a little.

Man they use these things on the outside of box shipments that require gentle handling.. Never seen it used for this before. LOLOL

seems kinda lame, unless you dont realize that you just wrecked... then the helmet shape isnt a reeeaal important issue at the moment...

Eyes

I love the title of this thread and had to comment similarly.

I'd say eyes are a pretty good helmet damage sensor. When one no longer points in the same direction as the other it's a pretty good indicator of helmet damage. :lol:

The Shok SpotR folks tell us that the device is calibrated for the weight of a helmet on a human head,
MMM, I fell off the bike and the helmet hit the ground, should I get a new helmet ....lol

Yeah it sounds like a gimmick too me. I've only seen these things on shipping boxes. I wonder if they make one for the human head? A paramedic could take one look and know if the cheese had slid off your cracker! :lol:

I would think a fall from a shelf for example would depend on what it hit and how high it was. I always thought as long as the shell wasn't damaged in a drop the helmet would be ok and in a wreck if the internal foam was compressed from an impact the helmet would need to be replaced.

I have never heard about helmet damage sensors before. This is something new to me and I am glad you have posted the link. I’m looking forward to knowing more about the helmet damage sensors.
