Description

Neck/back pain is a significant problem in aircrew of the US Navy (USN) and US Service Branches; prevalent across all platforms including fixed-wing ejection-seat (FWES), fixed-wing non-ejection-seat (FWNES), and rotary wing/tilt rotor (RW/TR). It accounts for an extensive burden in time and resources to the US and international partners in Europe. Triton Systems will design, build, and demonstrate a portable, ergonomically appropriate device for the relief of neck/back pain during long-haul flight operations. Triton’s solution will provide relief on-demand as needed, require no manipulation on the part of the aircrew outside turning on or off, be compatible for use across all current-generation flight seats independent of platform type and aircrew position, and not interfere with the operation of flight, safety, and life-support gear.
