Research abstract
Red Tail Hawk Corp. is partnering with Predictec, Inc. in researching a new method for taking impressions of the ear canal and concha. The impressions will be used to fabricate custom-molded earplugs (passive and communications) that provide the highest attenuation performance while maintaining comfort. A database system for disseminating the impression digital data will also be researched. The result of the Phase I effort will be a system for making digital impressions that has been tested and compared to traditional methods.
