Objective neurological assessment for elite athletes
When a hit happens, you need objective data, not subjective judgment. The COMBAT MIRROR™ provides the neurological assessment technology elite organisations use to make data-driven return-to-play decisions.
Why elite organisations choose Combat Mirror™
Built for the sideline, not the lab
Objective return-to-play
Data-driven clearance decisions based on neurological recovery metrics, not subjective assessment. Reduce liability risk.
Cognitive baseline tracking
Establish and monitor cognitive baselines throughout training and competition seasons. Track over time.
Rapid assessment
Measure reaction time and cognitive function courtside or fieldside in under 60 seconds. Immediate results.
Player welfare protection
Medical staff get objective data to support diagnoses, protecting players and organisations. Evidence-based care.
Assessment time
Rapid courtside or fieldside testing.
Objective data
No subjective interpretation required.
Cloud monitoring
Track player baselines over time.
Real-world applications
What it looks like in practice
The COMBAT MIRROR™ training apparatus provides the objective neurological data that elite organisations need for player safety, performance optimisation, and liability protection.
Objective return-to-play protocols
An NFL linebacker takes a hard hit. Test their reaction time immediately, then again 24 hours later. Only clear them to play when their neurological function returns to baseline - no guesswork, no liability.
Track cognitive impact from headers
A Premier League midfielder heads 20+ balls per match. Track their cognitive function weekly to detect cumulative neurological impact before it becomes a career-ending problem.
High-speed decision making
An NBA point guard gets knocked down. Measure their reaction time and cognitive processing speed courtside to determine if they can safely continue making split-second decisions.
Player welfare & medical support
A rugby player absorbs multiple high-impact tackles. Medical staff use objective neurological data to support their diagnosis, protecting both the player and the organisation from litigation.
Combat-level impact assessment
An NHL enforcer takes a punch during a fight. Measure their neurological function before and after to quantify the impact, just as combat sports athletes have done for years.
Elite cognitive baseline tracking
Olympic athletes train year-round at peak intensity. Establish cognitive baselines during training camps, then monitor for neurological changes throughout competition seasons.
Scenarios are illustrative. The organisations and leagues named are examples of the settings the technology is designed for, not customers or endorsements.
Backed by scientific research
The research behind the assessment
Our technology is supported by independent R&D studies on concussion assessment and neurological impact in professional athletes.
CTE & concussion assessment research
Adj. Prof. Alan Pearce's research on Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy and concussion assessment addresses the need for objective neurological monitoring in contact sports.
Objective assessment protocols
The COMBAT MIRROR™ system is designed to provide the objective reaction time and cognitive function data that research indicates is important for concussion protocols and return-to-play decisions.
