Abstract: An apparatus and method for measuring the impact performance of a target material comprising a hollow structure comprising an outlet end located above a target. The hollow structure is dimensioned to allow free movement of a drop test object through the outlet end. A trigger is located proximate to the outlet end and a retaining member is located proximate to the outlet end and coupled to hollow structure. The retaining member is configured to retain the drop test object in the hollow structure upon activation of the trigger.
