Abstract
A method for producing a customized helmet including a computer designed composite helmet liner to be incorporated into existing and new helmet designs is provided by scanning a user's cranial region, creating a computer rendering surface model of the scan, modifying the surface model using computer aided design software, overlaying and aligning an outer helmet shell model onto the modified cranial model to define the custom liner three-dimensional space to configure the composite liner with a software algorithm including shock absorbing segments having optimal sizes, shapes, and materials, fabricating the liner in a heat sealing process to include an optional encapsulating or serial air bladder, and assembling the liner and outer helmet shell together.
