OT- Understanding Concussions UM Engineering
Saw an interesting article from my UM Engineering newsletter (Few days old but I just recieved it). Talks about testing done to correlate two concussion testing systems.
Woo!, second try, and 2 successfull attempts below. go team.
“I think the ultimate goal is still that one could predict which hits are going to cause concussions based on the biomechanics of the impact,” Eckner said. “We’re a long way away from that goal, but it would be the greatest benefit that these systems could provide to help players, coaches, team doctors, and athletic trainers.”
I think its interesting that with all the technology of this day and age we still struggle with to sort this out.
