Abstract:Instrumented mouthguards (iMG) measure head kinematics in sport, but their measurements have not been validated at high levels of accelerations observed in those sports like rugby. In addition, the effects of filter cut-off frequency on the measured kinematics are still unknown. To address these questions, a drop testing helmeted head-form of an anthropometric testing device (ATD) was used to produce a range of accelerations and accurately control them. Peak linear acceleration (PLA), rotational velocity (PRV)… Show more
