The High Speed I-Scan force and pressure measurement system can be used in crash test
dummy studies to capture the dynamic pressures and forces that are exerted during an
impact. High-Speed I-Scan can identify the temporal, local, peak, and spatial pressures of
two objects colliding. With scanning speeds at up to 10kHz, even extremely rapid strikes
can be recorded.
This information can be used to create safer cars, and bolster dashboard
and restraint design, minimizing injury. Sensors are available in different shapes, are
reusable, and provide accurate pressure readings. With the help of Tekscan's highly
qualified sales and engineering support team, each system may be configured to meet your
specific needs.
