Police officers in safety vest from the Police Academy in Szczytno test lightweight bulletproof vests and protect against attacks with sharp objects. Life jackets are exactly matched to the body through the use of three-dimensional scanning.
Good fit vest's is one of the major challenges, since these are now mass-produced standard in several sizes and selection of the right vests, especially for people with special dimensions is a serious problem. The effectiveness of vests is strictly dependent on matching them to the user. The three-dimensional scan of the form allows you to create profiles accurately mapping the actual figure, which you can try on the vest before her sew.
Vests with reflective tape were created as part of the acronym "Secret". It performs scientific and industrial consortium, led by the Institute of Security Technology. The consortium also includes the Central Institute for Labor Protection - National Research Institute, the Military Institute of Armament Technology, Company Protective Equipment and the Police Academy in Szczytno.
Creators vests ensure that beyond the perfect fit to the shape of your body, they are lightweight, flame, and most importantly - protect both ballistic weapons grade TT (pistol with bullets of 7.62 mm), and melee weapons - knives, spikes and needles . Resistance to such different types of weapons is obtained by using two separate inputs, which protects the wearer against bullets, and a second front knife or any other sharp objects. Life jackets can hit the equipment, among others Police, BOR or the army. Currently they are tested and undergo tests polygonal.
- It vests the XXI century - says Grozny from the Institute of Security Technology in Lodz.
Vest with a single cartridge to protect against bullets weighs 2.5 kg, and additional protecting against impact with sharp objects is nice heavier. Specialized in this type of production companies even offer a lighter reflective vest. Produced by the British company PPS Group vest to protect against bullets and hitting sharp looks like the classic vest suits and weighs about 1.65 kg.
The "individualization design of multifunctional ballistic vests to wear a hidden" is funded by the National Centre for Research and Development Programmer of Research for Security and Defense State. The project is to be completed in September 2016. And the content and financial settlement by Nyberg, it will be at the disposal of the Ministry of Defense and is ready for deployment into production.
