Football has a concussion problem, the head as a weapon on every single play of every single game of every single practice.

足球有一個腦震盪的問題，在每一場比賽每一次訓練中，頭部都是一個武器。

Today's football helmets are effective at doing what they were invented to.

今天的足球頭盔有效地發揮了它們發明的作用。

Dio prevent skull fractures and brain bleeds, but they don't do much to decrease the force placed on a player's brain in a collision.

迪奧可以防止顱骨骨折和腦出血，但對於減少碰撞中玩家大腦所受的力並沒有什麼作用。

Have you yourself ever had a concussion?

你自己有過腦震盪的經歷嗎？

Yes, ma'am, multiple concussions.

是的，女士，多次腦震盪。

There's some that are just a little stingers that you can feel a slight headache and then it goes away.

有的只是一點刺痛，你能感覺到輕微的頭痛，然後就消失了。

There's some that I've had that you don't recognize where you are, the product that we have now.

我有一些，你不認識你在哪裡，我們現在的產品。

It's the same part of we've had for three entirety of our careers and childhood growing up.

這也是我們在職業生涯和童年成長中整整三個月的部分。

So you know, there's not really much available in terms of the innovation for safety.

所以你知道，在安全的創新方面，其實並沒有太多的可用之處。

Really, there's not much you can be concerned about because of the fact that either you play or you don't play.

真的，你可以關注的不多，因為你要麼玩，要麼不玩。

That's where vices comes in.

這就是惡習的來源。

A startup that's turning helmet design on its head.

一家創業公司，正在顛覆頭盔設計。

We've completely redesigned the helmet from scratch.

我們從頭開始完全重新設計了頭盔。

Linear forces are less likely to cause a concussion than rotational forces What we wanted to do is trying to dress rotational force and reduce the energy that came to the outside of the head.

直線力比旋轉力更不容易造成腦震盪 我們想做的是嘗試裝扮旋轉力，減少傳到頭外的能量。

Current helmets on the market have two layers.

目前市場上的頭盔有兩層。

Ah, hard outer shell and an inner liner of foam padding.

啊，堅硬的外殼和保麗龍填充的內襯。

The Vices helmet has four layers.

Vices頭盔有四層。

The helmet works much like a car bumper, crumpling to absorb force before it can reach a player's brain.

頭盔的工作原理很像汽車的保險槓，在它到達玩家的大腦之前，就會皺縮吸收力量。

We wanted to employ some of those principles that have been used in automotive safety, the idea of a crumples owner bumper helmet that yielded and therefore slowed impact forces before they reach the head and brain.

我們想採用一些在汽車安全方面已經使用的原則，即崩潰車主保險槓頭盔的想法，讓步，是以在衝擊力到達頭部和大腦之前，減緩衝擊力。

It's not a soft, as you might think, uh, because it has to withstand the impact forces that you see on the football field on Sunday.

它並不像你想象的那樣是軟的，呃，因為它要承受週日在足球場上看到的衝擊力。

Why columns and the columns air able to buckle when there's four supplied, but they can also move what we call on the directionally.

為什麼柱子和柱子的空氣能夠扣，當有四個供應，但他們也可以移動我們所謂的在方向上。

So if you get one of these side impacts or shearing type impacts, the columns can actually moved back and forth.

所以，如果你受到這種側面衝擊或剪切型衝擊，柱子實際上可以前後移動。

And so by doing that, they can absorb these rotational type forces that occur vices.

所以通過這樣做，他們可以吸收這些旋轉型的力量，發生惡習。

One half a million dollars is part of the NFL's Head Health Challenge with General Electric and under armor, and the company has a roster of current and former players supporting its efforts.

50萬美元是NFL與通用電氣和盔甲下的頭部健康挑戰的一部分，該公司有一個現役和前球員的名單支持其努力。

Why invest?

為什麼要投資？

Why not just say, I'll wear the helmet?

為什麼不直接說，我要戴頭盔？

You gotta put your money where your mouth is, right?

你必須把你的錢放在你的嘴，對不對？

We're dealing with something right now that is threatening the future of our sport.

我們現在正在處理一些威脅到我們運動未來的事情。

And the only way that we can attack that and solve the issue is by making innovative technology available for the athletes that are playing the game.

而我們能攻克這個問題並解決這個問題的唯一方法，就是為正在比賽的運動員提供創新技術。

Vices is careful to say that no helmet, including its own, can prevent concussions.

維斯小心翼翼地說，包括自己的頭盔在內，沒有任何頭盔可以預防腦震盪。

In fact, experts don't fully understand if there's any way to prevent concussions, period.

事實上，專家們並不完全瞭解是否有什麼方法可以預防腦震盪，就這樣。

The best treatment for concussion is prevention linemen and football who have sub concussive blows.

腦震盪最好的治療方法是預防內線和足球有亞震盪性打擊。

They get hit on every play.

他們每場比賽都會被擊中。

Is it possible that their brains are being injured?

難道是他們的大腦受到了傷害？

Not big injuries once, but multiple injuries.

不是一次大傷，而是多次受傷。

Every play now will improve technology partially prevent.

現在的每一個玩法都會提高技術部分預防。

One could only hope so, but that's necessary but not sufficient.

只能希望如此，但這是必要的，但並不充分。

How do we know that your helmet will actually be effective?

我們怎麼知道你的頭盔是否真的有效？

Currently, helmets are assessed based on their ability to reduce impact forces.

目前，頭盔的評估依據是其減少衝擊力的能力。

Our job is to create a helmet that mitigates those impact forces more effectively than others.

我們的工作是創造一個比其他頭盔更有效地減輕這些衝擊力的頭盔。

How?

怎麼說？

That translates to concussion risk.

這就轉化為腦震盪的風險。

We don't know Right now.

我們現在還不知道

We can demonstrate improve that we can reduce impact forces.

我們可以證明改善，我們可以減少衝擊力。

We can do that better than any helmet on the market.

我們可以做到比市場上任何一個頭盔都要好。

Yeah.

是啊。
