Linx IAS
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY TO MAKE SPORTS SAFER
Concussions have become an epidemic in sports, with new research continuing to shed light on the harmful long-term effects of repeated head impacts. Now anyone can receive immediate and cumulative impact data on a smartphone or tablet by wearing the Linx IAS during activity. Parents can get notified the moment a potential concussion-causing impact occurs during practice or a game—even if they are at home or work. Athletes can tap a button on the device to see a green, yellow, or red LED to know when a hit was too hard to shrug off. Coaches can connect over 128 players to one iOS or Android device for an up-to-the-second dashboard of their players’ statuses. Even doctors and trainers can benefit from the crucial information gathered to more accurately triage and treat any head injuries.
