I have written about SyncThink before. I’m a big fan of what they are doing for athletes today. The Palo Alto based company has produced EYE-SYNC technology that utilizes eye-tracking analytics to objectively diagnose concussions inside of 60 seconds.
Former Saints and Stanford University tight end, Coby Fleener joined SyncThink’s athletic advisory board one year ago. Less than two months later, he would be placed on injured reserve after suffering his fifth documented concussion.
Fleener was never able to clear concussion protocol, but has not officially retired. Many fans were incensed when Fleener was allowed to re-enter the game against the Rams after taking a crushing hit from Blake Countess, which Countess was penalized and later fined for.
