One way, I believe, to address the problem of under - reporting and increase the chances a concussion will be identified early on the sports sideline may be to rely less on athletes themselves to remove themselves from games or practices by reporting concussion symptoms (which the most recent study shows occurs at a shockingly low rate, [9] or on game officials and sideline observers to observe signs of concussion and call for a concussion assessment, but to employ technology to increase the chances that a concussion will be identified by employing impact sensors designed to monitor head impact exposure in terms of the
force of hits (both linear and rotational), number, location, and cumulative impact, in real time at all levels of football, and in other helmeted and non-helmeted contact and collision sports, where practical, to help identify
