You never know when a life threatening heatstroke could strike your loved ones in the middle of a rigorous physical activity such as sports and take away their life. Hotbed Technologies has come up with RFID Football Helmet which prevents athletes from falling prey to deadly heatstroke. In this RFID football helmet, lightweight and shock resistant transponder attached to it takes note of body temperature of the player wearing it. The body temperature is tracked by the transponder and the information is transmitted in real time to a handheld computer.

In case the body temperature exceeds the limit an alert is sounded so that paramedics can react in a timely manner. Not just sports this RFID football helmet could be deployed for firefighters and military personnel's who have to work in some of the most inhuman conditions where survival rates tends to drop to bare minimum. Probably had such system hit the earlier before we would not have lost Minnesota Vikings star Korey Stringer in 2001.
