Abstract
A projectile impact simulation device comprising a housing, a mounting attachment, at least two high-voltage pins, and a shock zone. The housing has a circuit board electrically coupled to high-voltage receptacles that are configured to receive a first end of a high-voltage pin. The housing also has a back surface configured to rest adjacent to a user when the user wears the device. The mounting attachment is coupled to the back surface and configured to couple the device to the user. The high-voltage pins are embedded within the housing and configured to couple with the high-voltage receptacles. Two contact pads exposed on the back surface each have an electrical contact coupled with the high-voltage pins. When a voltage differential is applied across the contact pads, the device is configured to cause an electric arc in the shock zone. When the device is worn by a user, the electric arc shocks the user.
