Research abstract
CRG, Inc. is proposing to develop a low-profile, conformal helmet-mounted sensor that leverages ultra-low power, miniature components with optimized low-power circuitry to gather acceleration data during an ejection event. This, combined with a smart algorithm to reduce power consumption and energy harvesting, will enable a system that is compatible with routine aircrew wear. The device will be small enough to fit with existing aircrew gear, such as the helmet, and will not need regular upkeep to maintain functionality.CRG has experience with ejection event sensing through a development effort which used changes in the cockpit environment to activate a release mechanism for helmet-mounted night vision goggles. CRG will leverage this and other deployable and body worn sensor systems they have developed, to include environmental health sensors, and an e-health monitoring garment.
