Headr

Headr has been designed to discreetly record and store the linear and angular accelerations of a footballer’s head during training and match play. The product acts as a tool for quantifying heading exposure - in turn helping advance the medical studies into traumatic brain injury in football, and also forming a clearer picture of the player’s overall health.

It is hoped that gathering each player's impact data over the span of their career would reveal trends which link to later brain disease diagnoses - in turn making the sport safer for future generations of athletes.
