Rope: Keeps the helmet from hitting the floor after impact.

Drop Carriage
-
Basket case: Used to support the helmet during the drop for the impact.
-
Velocimeter (Time Gate): Very precise electronic device that
calculates the time it takes for an object to pass in front of an infra-red
beam a few millimeters before impact. The time in milliseconds and the length
of the object are then used to determine the velocity.
-
Auto-retractable system: When an impact takes place, the
auto-retractable system will raise the head form and the attached helmet and
suspend them in the air. This helps prevent injuries and a second impact to the
helmet.
-
Cage: Used to prevent damage to the machine.
-
Remote Control: Can set the height and the speed, initiate the
test, perform an emergency stop, and activate pre-programmed settings.
