Abstract
Various methods and systems are provided for impact sensing and recording. In one embodiment, an impact recording sensor includes an impulse sensing system configured to sense impacts experienced by the impact recording sensor in three dimensions and a microcontroller unit (MCU) configured to obtain impact data from the impulse sensing system and store an impact data set including the impact data in memory in response to an impact experienced by the impact recording sensor. The impact recording sensor may also include a rechargeable power source configured to supply power to the MCU. In another embodiment, an impact recording system includes and impact recording sensor and a control interface unit configured to communicatively couple with the impulse recording sensor. The control interface unit may be configured to download impact data set stored in memory of the impulse recording sensor.
