Blunt Trauma Torso Rig
Impact Dynamics Testing
Sydor Technologies offers the Biokinetics® Blunt Trauma Torso Rig (BTTR). The BTTR is a high-fidelity solution for assessing: blunt thoracic trauma from soft body armor impacts, kinetic energy less-lethal munitions, and other moderate to high-speed distributed impacts.
Key Benefits
- Dynamic Trauma Assessment
Captures high-rate loading data to evaluate crushing effects on the torso. - Non Contact Depth Measurement
Laser sensors detect chest-wall deflection without interfering with impact dynamics. - Injury Risk Quantification
Outputs validated chest deflection metrics, enabling classification of potential blunt trauma injuries. - Seamless Diagnostic Integration
Interfaces easily with Sydor’s ballistic and impact test setups for unified data collection.

Test-Ready Configuration
The BTTR arrives fully configured with a biomechanical thorax surrogate, rigid mounting frame, high-speed non-contact lasers, and integrated data recorder. Tailored for both soft armor and less lethal munition testing, it’s ready for immediate lab deployment.
