For all kinds of work that involves exposure to loud explosive sounds I believe the impact of mild repeated exposure to slight concussion has been quite largely missed in accounting for health, I hope these kinds of devices become standard issue for anyone involved in heavy machinery work or other contexts where this kind of exposure can happen.

Does it really make sense we normalized having radiation exposure badges for people before we normalized equivalent individualized repeated concussive force sensors?
