Introducing H.I.P.
Introducing Head Impact Prevention (H.I.P.), an innovative startup at the forefront of revolutionizing head protection in the defense industry. With a unique, patented helmet design inspired by the principles of biomimicry, our helmets draw inspiration from nature’s most resilient structures. H.I.P. has developed a groundbreaking force distribution helmet. This segmented, multi-shell, and multi-scale helmet, equipped with expansion joints, is designed to safeguard against concussions and impacts, offering unparalleled protection to our soldiers, service personnel, and more.
Founded by an NFL alum and participant in the NFL Helmet Challenge at Youngstown State University, H.I.P. was started to address the devastating effects of impact forces on the brain.
The H.I.P. Helmet was made to harness the designs of nature to help prevent Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Concussion (M-TBI), Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), and other injury to the brain.
