New Helmet?

After seeing the helmet industry not make any real improvements to their design in 30 years or more (70's-90's), it is good to see some work is going into making a better helmet. I also like that there are small companies out there trying to make a difference.
Now the NFL has to mandate the use of some of the new technology.
Last night the NFL TV booth official mentioned that the NFL may demand all players have to use some type of knee, elbow, thigh and hip pads. I always wondered about why they did not do this years ago? It should not be up to the player.
