Clockwork Technology Innovations LLC (CTI), an intellectual property company dedicated to improving human health and wellbeing through tech innovation, is pushing to reduce the severity of head injuries in sports and the military.
In this pursuit, the company developed a new technology (HTx10) that augments and improves the design of helmets via shock avoidance technology that is available today.
CTI said its new technology is a set of 10 inter-related innovations that work to reduce the forces of heavy impacts, with particular attention to the issue of rotational concussion, which involves a twisting of the head and neck – it’s these types of injures that spurred the National Football League to ban deliberate helmet-to-helmet contact.
“The significant reduction of concussions and other brain injuries is just one of many ways that CTI intends to fulfill its mission of improving human health and safety around the world,” said a representative for the company.
“Our goal is to be a positive and disruptive force across several industries,” added CTI Director of Product Development Leonard Lasko.
Other members of the CTI team include “The Sports Doctor” Dr. Robert A. Weil, a sports podiatrist and Internet radio host; Paul Rode, retired CEO of Motorola, Rich Mattas, retired nuclear engineer from Argonne National Laboratory and John Harmata, award-winning author and leading authority on injuries related to figure skating equipment.
Among the first wave of patentable inventions from CTI will be medical and surgical devices, shock avoidance technology, industrial tools and hardware and cosmetology products.
