This is Part 2 of 3 Concussions have been a major concern across every sport outside the professional level, especially when the dangers of concussions are hitting the youth. A new Kickstarter campaign has been launched by Ben Harvatine called the Jolt Sensor which detects concussions through a wearable sensor at the moment of impact. Ben joined TYT Sports hosts Ben Mankewiecz and Francis Maxwell to discuss the Jolt Sensor, concussion in sports and how his product can pave the way for a much lesser risk with all types of head injuries. What is the Jolt Sensor? The Jolt Sensor is a small clip that can easily attach to any piece of head-worn athletic equipment. Whether you wear a helmet, a headband, goggles, or headgear, it’ll work. The sensor enclosure has a soft rounded silicone rubber exterior to prevent injury and is fully waterproofed to stand up to dirt, dust, sweat, and rain. It has a multi-week battery life and is rechargeable via a standard micro USB port. - kickstarter.com/joltsensor -- Jolt Sensor on TWITTER: @JoltSensor Follow Ben on TWITTER: @bdharva Donate to Jolt Sensor: kickstarter.com/joltsensor -- Subscribe For More FREE Sports News!! www.youtube.com/tytsports TWITTER: www.twitter.com/TYTSports FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com/TYTSports WEBSITE: www.tytsportsonline.com INSTAGRAM: @tytsportsonline Follow our hosts and producers on Twitter: Ben Mankewicz - @benmank77 Francis Maxwell - @francis_maxwell Jason Rubin - @jasonrubin91 Do Us A Favor and Give This Video A Thumbs Up!
