Hard hits and tackles are part of Football.\u00a0 The effect those hits can have on a player\u2019s brain is no joke. That\u2019s why <\/span>VICIS <\/span><\/a>(which means change in Latin) is trying to bring <\/span>change<\/i><\/b> to the helmet industry. <\/span><\/p>\n

Unlike standard helmets, which have a hard outer shell and foam interior, VICIS helmets are different. They have multiple layers that all work together to slow impact forces before they can reach the head. The outermost layer is a small-flexible shell which bends like a car bumper. The second layer is made of columns which bend and buckle on impact. So together, the layers slow impact forces before they can reach the head.<\/span><\/p>\n

The concept for the bendable helmet follows the engineering principles in modern auto manufacturing where <\/span>crumple zones<\/i><\/b> better protect the passengers by transferring energy when hit. <\/span><\/p>\n

VICIS is constantly researching<\/span><\/a>, testing, and developing technology to ensure their helmets have the highest quality to reduce head injury risk.\u00a0 Go To Team\u2019s <\/span>Seattle crew<\/span><\/a> member, <\/span>Zach Caby<\/span><\/a>, visited VICIS for The Henry Ford’s Innovation Nation\u00a0<\/em>to help capture it all.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our crew spent the day shooting interviews, interactive segments, hero shots, and tons of B-roll on a Sony F5. The day was structured nicely as we had a lot of material to cover in a short amount of time. \u00a0In order to keep the day on track, and to stay mobile, Zach utilized three 1×1 LED bi-color panels. <\/span><\/p>\n

Interacting with and interviewing the three founders of VICIS was a pleasure, as they are three unique individuals from totally different backgrounds that came together to develop a truly innovative product that is changing the way we protect our athletes.<\/span><\/p>\n
