An easy-to-use and near-autonomous system

Hand holding three Blast Gauge sensors in open palm

The Blast Gauge® System is a set of 3 wearable sensors that collect multidirectional overpressure, acceleration, and body loading data for detailed blast event data collection, analysis, and exposure monitoring.

Next-Generation Mobile App

Cloud-based monitoring

Automatically syncs data across devices for large scale monitoring and data management.

Complete gauge management

Mobile app allows users to activate gauges, erase data, and perform updates.

Enhanced view

New user interface simplifies viewing and assessing data during training.

Management applications are availabe for both MS Windows and Android enabling both device configuration and analysis of captured data.

Key Benefits

Research suggests that repetitive exposure to blast overpressure, even at low levels, can cause concussion- like symptoms and long-term neurodegenerative disease, including: structural changes in the brain, increased PTSD, acceleration of age-associated neurological disorders, and persistent concussion symptoms. The blast gauge was built to protect soldiers from this difficult to detect threat.

Automated and Reprogrammable

Blast overpressure and acceleration data are automatically collected and characterized.

Hermetically sealed housing

Design allows for submersion at up to 15 ft dive depths without adverse effects.

FAST-CT+ integrated

Automatic calculation of incident overpressure, alongside actual body-loaded measurements.

Exposure tailored treatment

Data is transferred wirelessly to a mobile app or via USB to a PC for detailed event analysis.

Triage capable

Identify individuals exposed to dangerous levels of overpressure, allowing for targeted medical assessment.

Snag resistant

Flat sensor protector for greater robustness and reduced snag risk.

Small

Less than two cubic inches.

Flexible

Instantly mounts to helmet, gear, and vehicles.

Inexpensive

Quickly outfit deployed troops and personnel.

Multipurpose

Route clearance, training, SOF, breaching, SWAT, and bomb squad.

Made in the USA

Proudly keeping jobs at home.
