Shock-absorbing system and method

A shock-absorbing assembly implemented on a device, comprising:

• a plurality of impact-diverting modules attached to the device, wherein each of the plurality of impact-diverting modules is fluidly isolated and wherein each of the plurality of impact-diverting modules comprises:
• a pair of impact units, including a first impact unit having a first volume of fluid and a second impact unit having a second volume of fluid, wherein when the first impact unit receives an external impact, a displaced volume of the fluid is forced to egress from the first impact unit and enter the second impact unit;
• an egress fluid conduit that conducts the displaced volume of the fluid from the first impact unit;
• a first one-way valve that controls an egress flow rate of the displaced volume of the fluid from the first impact unit, wherein the first one-way valve allows a unidirectional egress flow of the displaced volume of the fluid and prevents an ingress flow of the displaced volume of the fluid;
• an ingress fluid conduit that conducts the displaced volume of the fluid from the second impact unit back to the first impact unit;
• a second one-way valve that controls an ingress flow rate of the displaced volume of fluid from the second impact unit back into the first impact unit and prevents an egress flow of the displaced volume of the fluid from the first impact unit into the ingress fluid conduit;
• and
• wherein a position of the first impact unit on the device in each of the plurality of impact-diverting modules is different from a position of the second impact unit on the device in a corresponding one of the plurality of impact-diverting modules such that the external impact is unlikely to affect both the first impact unit and the second impact unit.
