Developing test benches to speed up R&D on Infl8

A project with
Bumpair

Project Context

Bumpair makes inflatable bike helmets. They came to us in the early stages of their Infl8 technology, a patented solution that combines air & fabrics to design highly protective and sustainable products. At the time they were trying to build a new type of protective helmet.

Being a safety equipment, they needed approval to label their equipment as such.

We took on the challenge of building 2 test benches that would push the helmets to their full capacity and speed up their internal R&D process.

How do we make sure our measurements are precise?
How do we build a test bench that can inflate and deflate the helmet quickly enough to conduct 1,000s of tests?
How do we make the tests as lifelike as possible?

The solution we built

We built 2 custom bench tests to make sure the helmet prototypes fit the imposed security standards. One that measured fatigue resistance. The other one that measured acceleration on impact with different surfaces.
