The purpose of the Kinetic Dispersion Tester (KDT) is to give users, specifically the U.S. Army, a tool that accurately monitors and records impact data on the human body created by the impact of high-speed, lethal projectiles. The successful creation of the KDT would aid in the study and development of effective ballistic projectiles along with the development of equipment to defend against the very same projectiles.
