Lincoln Tech Tips brings you coverage of CES 2015, brought to you by Phantom Glass, visit their store for the best darn screen protectors out there as well as HyperX. Guys, welcome to the i1 Biometrics booth where we will be checking out their Vector mouthguard. You may be wondering why I'm covering a mouthguard, I find the integration of technology into everyday things fascinating and concussive injuries are an issue that is very close to my heart, as I come from a heavy sports background.

I even had the chance to try it out myself, so we walked away from one of their booths with the mouthguard that was actually synced to the computer. So, I'm nervously going to have Burkle tackle me down right now, and we're going to see what the metrics are for me getting tackled by Burkle. Give me one moment... well, that was exciting, I think we startled a few people on the show floor.

The software for the consumer version will log all of your game collision data until you sync it back up when you're at home, once you sync your unit, your computer will be able to view all of the data from linear acceleration to rotational acceleration to head injury criterion. As you can see based on the model on the screen, when Nick Van Berkel hit me, I tucked my head down to the side which resulted in my brain impacting the other side of my skull. It wasn't a very heavy impact because it wasn't a direct hit to the skull, but the data is logged for referential reasons.

Regardless, safety in sports is incredibly important and this data can tell you more than just head injury information. A coach or parent would be able to use this data to easily identify bad habits like leading into a tackle with your helmet in football and then address that issue later on. Alright guys, hopefully you found this interesting, let me know in the comments down below or on Twitter.

And if you want to see all the rest of our CES content, which I can guarantee you is not mouth guards, please stay subscribed to Linus Tech Tips. Also, thank you to Phantom Glass for protecting our phones and helping us come here this year, we have a cool video coming from them soon, I know that sentence is burned into a few of your brains but anyways also thank you to HyperX check out youtube.com/hyperx for their channel.

If they get 100,000 subscribers before January 11th, they'll be doing a pretty big giveaway, I think they only have seven or eight thousand more to go so go jump on that and maybe you'll win something cool. Thanks for watching and I'll see you guys next time.
