Brown University’s campus newspaper featured an article describing the brain injury research conducted by Profs. Haneesh Kesari, Diane Hoffman-Kim and David Henann.
To test their device, Kesari’s lab recruited participants at numerous Navy bases. The team also created a full-size dummy — named the “Accelo-Randy” — to evaluate their sensor technology in situations unsafe for human testing, such as riding a military stealth boat. Composed of 11 bodily sensors, the “Accelo-Randy” can mirror the impact of trauma on the human head. These efforts culminated in a lab presentation of their findings and technology at the White House in 2023.
