Blast sensing using a kinematic sensor

Abstract

A system for sensing and assessing blast events may include a sensing device configured for directly or indirectly securing to a user. The sensing device may include a kinematics sensor configured for sensing at least one of an acceleration and a velocity associated with an event and for generating kinematic signal data based on the event. The sensing device may also include a computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon for receiving the kinematic signal data from the kinematic sensor and storing the kinematic signal data and a processor for processing the instructions to capture the kinematic signal data. The system may also include a computing device configured for analyzing the kinematic signal data to classify the event as a blast event or not a blast event. A method of assessing a blast event using the sensing system may also be provided.
