Abstract
A handheld communication device for monitoring protective headgear includes a device interface that receives event data that includes power data that represents power of impact to the protective headgear. A processing device executes an event simulation module that processes the event data to generate simulation display data that animates the impact to the protective headgear. A user interface includes a display device that displays the simulation display data.
Claims20
A handheld communication device for monitoring protective headgear, the handheld communication device comprising:
- a device interface that receives event data that includes power data that represents power imparted at impact to the protective headgear;
- a processing device, coupled to the device interface, that executes an event simulation module that processes the event data to generate simulation display data that animates the impact to the protective headgear;
- and
- a user interface, coupled to the processing module, that includes a display device that displays the simulation display data.
A computer readable storage medium for use in a handheld communication device for monitoring protective headgear, the computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor of the handheld communication device, cause the processor to:
- receive, via a device interface of the handheld communication device, event data that includes power data that represents power of impact to the protective headgear;
- process the event data to generate simulation display data that animates the impact to the protective headgear;
- and
- display the simulation display data via a display device of the handheld communication device.
