Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has developed a field-ready screening tool for traumatic brain injury (TBI). The Advanced Military Measure of Olfaction (AMMO) kit includes an array of scents, deployable anywhere from the battlefield to the football field, to help screen for TBIs in minutes. 

“The AMMO test kit is not intended as a diagnostic test but as a screening tool,” said SwRI Senior Research Engineer Kreg Zimmern, the project’s leader.

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) is using markerless motion capture to identify musculoskeletal injury risks in military service members during specialized training. A new study published in the journal Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology describes how the SwRI-developed Engine for Automatic Biomechanical Evaluation (ENABLE™) analysis tool can help identify individuals at risk for noncombat injuries before they occur.
