1. A device for reducing traumatic brain injury, the device comprising:

  • a first sensor coupled to a head component configured to measure an acceleration of a user'"'"'s head as a result of motion of the head component and to generate a sequence of real-time measured samples;

    a first linkage element configured to connect the head component to a body component, the first linkage element switchable between a first state in which it is relatively flexible and a second state in which it is relatively rigid based upon a locking signal; and

    a processing element electronically coupled to a memory element, the processing element configured to receive the real-time measured samples and to generate the locking signal when each of a portion of the real-time measured samples is greater than one of a corresponding portion of a plurality of dynamic concussion thresholds.
