If you've been watching the Women's Rugby World Cup, you may have noticed players have been wearing special mouthguards that light up when they've suffered a significant knock to the head.
It's the first time these concussion-predicting mouthguards have been trialled at a major competition.
So in the wake of recent concussion concerns, from professional AFL and rugby league to community competitions, is this the future of sport?
