Een hoofdletsel is een grote uitdaging voor de volksgezondheid en de omvang ervan wordt nog onvoldoende erkend. Er wordt geschat dat ongeveer de helft van de wereldbevolking een of meerdere keren in hun leven een hoofdletsel zal oplopen.
Ribcap beschermt − niet zoals een helm, maar wel veel meer dan een gewone muts, dankzij de ingenaaide protectoren. Het binnenste van de muts bestaat uit zachte visco-elastische protectoren in plaats van uit een harde schaal. In tegenstelling tot hard materiaal, dat bij een schok ofwel zijn vorm houdt, ofwel breekt, neemt het visco-elastische materiaal een andere vorm aan, waardoor het de energie van de schok kan absorberen. Dat is zachte bescherming.
