ActiveProtective is a consumer device company that produces smart garments to reduce traumatic injury using wearable airbag technology. The company's proprietary technology uses 3D motion sensors to determine the stereotypical motions and accelerations that govern the body’s normal, daily activities, in order to determine ’departures’ from what is allowable. This technique called "fall disambiguation", allows users to determine falls prior to impact, intercept hip fractures, and protect themselves from risks during sports and military sessions by deploying micro-airbag protection. ActiveProtective was founded in 2006 and is based in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
