I am looking for input on design/material selection for a custom
protective helmet for a 4 y/o girl with primordial dwarfism. The
helmet will be used primarily for recreational activities, like riding
her bicycle or scooter. Her head is similar to the size of an average
3-6 month-old infant.
My initial thought was to make a helmet with a 3/16 copoly shell,
with an interface of multiple removable layers (onion skin) of 1/8 vs
3/16 aliplast.
Any thoughts or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you all!
Tim Russo, CPO
