Full system (armor + compute + batteries + sensors) targets 8.2 kg but risks 10+ kg with Level IV plates. Mitigation: carbon-fiber CapraPack frame distributes load to hips; modular design lets operators drop non-essential modules; Prosumer tier omits plates for 5.5 kg.
Active electronics and batteries increase IR signature vs. passive armor. Mitigation: IR-compliant outer fabric; thermal routing channels vent heat downward; sleep mode reduces emissions 90% during concealment.
Central 6-port manifold is single point of failure for all peripherals. Mitigation: each peripheral retains autonomous safety functions when disconnected; redundant CAN-FD bus with failover; IP67 sealed connectors tested at 10K+ mate cycles.
300 Wh Li-ion in close-quarters ballistic environment. Mitigation: CapraVolt modules use LFP chemistry (no thermal runaway); ceramic separator; hot-swap design allows field replacement without powering down system.
Soft armor carrier fit studies across body types. CapraCore compute bay thermal validation. CapraLink hub connector fatigue and environmental testing.
Full integration prototype with CapraPack, CapraVolt, and sensor array. Load distribution testing with 8-hour wear trials. CapraLink peripheral handshake protocol finalization.
Field trials with military and law enforcement. Level IV plate compatibility certification. Multi-climate testing (desert, arctic, maritime). Battery hot-swap under stress validation.
NIJ certification (armor). MIL-STD-810H environmental qualification. Prosumer tier (no plates, lighter frame). Consumer tier (impact-only, no compute).
The EarthShield ballistic package uses a triple-material composite: Kevlar EXO for flexibility and cut resistance, Dyneema UD (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) for the lightest ballistic protection per weight, and Twaron Next para-aramid for thermal stability. This combination delivers multi-threat protection that is lighter and more flexible than single-material solutions.
FlexScale uses auxetic textiles. Materials with a negative Poisson's ratio that expand when stretched rather than contracting. This means the armor gets wider when you reach, bend, or move, maintaining full ballistic coverage during dynamic activity. Traditional body armor creates gaps during movement; FlexScale eliminates them.
Active Mode is an ultra-lightweight shell for training and high-intensity movement. Executive Mode looks like professional attire for discrete protection. Urban Mode integrates into everyday streetwear like hoodies and jackets. Field Mode offers maximum coverage and modularity for security and high-risk environments. All modes use the same ballistic panels and NODE electronics.
The NODE is a self-contained electronics pod that houses all smart components: sensors, processors, communication modules, and battery. It's removable so you can wash your armor shells without damaging electronics, transfer your tech between apparel modes, and upgrade components independently without replacing the entire system.
Fit AI uses the SenseSkin pressure sensor mesh to detect panel placement, identify gaps in coverage, and confirm that ballistic protection meets the rated level. Every time you put the armor on, the system runs a verification check and alerts you if any panel is misaligned or missing coverage in a critical zone.
Yes. The CAPRASKIN™ and CapraHelm™ form a unified platform. The Goat Man Visor™ HUD displays armor status, impact alerts, and coverage maps. The armor shares thermal data, impact events, and battery status with the helmet through an encrypted mesh link. Together, they provide complete situational awareness of both your environment and your protection status.
SenseSkin is an embedded sensor mesh woven into the armor fabric that monitors pressure distribution, impact force, temperature, and panel integrity across the entire surface in real time. It feeds data to the AI systems for fit verification, thermal management, impact logging, and armor health monitoring.
Impact AI measures the force in real time, logs the exact location and severity, and can trigger emergency alerts if the impact exceeds thresholds. The Armor Health AI then tracks material degradation from the impact point and adjusts replacement schedules accordingly. Every impact event is documented in the Armor Passport digital lifecycle record.
Remove the NODE electronics pod, extract the ballistic panels, and the outer apparel shell can be machine-washed like regular clothing. The CORDURA re/cor outer shell and TENCEL comfort liner are designed for repeated washing without degradation. Ballistic panels are surface-cleanable. The NODE reconnects after the shell dries.
The Armor Passport is a digital lifecycle tracking system that documents every ballistic panel from manufacture to retirement. It records production data, usage hours, impact events, environmental exposure, wash cycles, and material degradation. This ensures you always know the exact protection level and remaining service life of every component.
The CoolGrid layer is a 3D spacer fabric that creates airflow channels between the ballistic panels and your body. Thermal AI monitors your body temperature and activity level, managing ventilation in real time. The system prevents overheating during high-intensity activity without compromising ballistic coverage.
Yes, especially in Executive and Urban modes. Executive Mode is designed to look like professional attire with a slim profile and muted hardware. Urban Mode integrates into everyday clothing like hoodies and jackets. The FlexScale system maintains a low profile while ensuring full coverage during movement.
BioLock is a patent-pending biometric locking system that ensures armor modules only activate for authorized users. This prevents unauthorized use of the smart features and ensures that AI verification, impact logging, and emergency protocols are tied to the registered wearer's profile.
Panel lifespan depends on usage intensity, environmental exposure, and impact history. The Armor Health AI continuously monitors material degradation and provides proactive replacement alerts before protection levels drop below rated specifications. The Armor Passport tracks exact service life data for each individual panel.
Yes. The modular design allows individual ballistic panels, sensor meshes, and NODE electronics to be replaced or upgraded independently. You don't need to replace the entire system when one component advances or wears out. The NODE carries your settings and data between upgrades seamlessly.
