SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DESIGNING AND MANUFACTURING A PROTECTIVE HELMET TAILORED TO A SELECTED GROUP OF HELMET WEARERS

Abstract: the invention relates to a protective sports helmet purposely designed for a selected group of helmet wearers from amongst a larger population of helmet wearers. a multi-step method for helmet design starts by collecting information from a population of players that may include information about the shape of a player's head and the impacts the player has sustained. this information is then processed to create player population information that is sorted to create categories. advanced mathematical techniques are utilized to further sort these categories into player groups or data sets based on player attributes. once the player groups are identified, another multi-step process is utilized to design optimized helmet prototype models for each player group. these optimized helmet prototype models are then further processed into complete helmet models by determining a structural design and chemical composition that is manufacturable and has mechanical properties that are substantially similar to the optimized helmet prototype model. physical helmet prototypes are then created and tested using a unique helmet standard derived from information associated with each player group. once the prototypes pass testing, the complete helmet models can be manufactured to create actual stock helmets or stock helmet components for future players whose characteristics and attributes place them within the selected player group.
