HERMAN FOR CONCUSSIONS

Herman sensors can measure body and head impacts, and Herman Interactive can work alone or with the Herman sensors to establish baselines, evaluate the immediate effect of the impact, provide recovery tools, and monitor head trauma rehabilitation improvement.  

Incorporating the conviction element to each question adds another unique, scaled evaluation measurement.  This conviction factor, along with some special red-flag questions, establish a truer baseline and a more fine-tuned evaluation of later changes. 

Using Herman Sensors provides another true evaluation measurement for actual physical activities as well as for the conviction level of a response.
