A unitary garment heating device that integrates with a garment to provide uniform heat throughout the garment. The device includes a plurality of nodes that position on various areas of the garment to distribute the heat. The nodes are fabricated from a conductive metallic yarn. A continuous conduit having no junctions carries current for generating heat, and connects the nodes to form a unitary heating device. The conduit is fabricated from the same material as the nodes, thereby forming a unitary device. The lack of junctions on the conduit helps eliminate problems such as shorts, and moisture exposure form rain or sweat. The conduit runs in a series circuitry to minimize shorts and arcing. The conduit is covered with a laminate and urethane to inhibit contact with moisture. A communication apparatus, such as a smart phone, monitors and regulates the temperature. A power supply and microprocessor are also attached.

The head and neck support system includes a pair of rods, a frame having an upper portion and a lower portion, and a pad having an attachment device, a first surface and a second surface. The pad wraps around the frame so as to form a loop to hold the head of a user against the second surface. The pad can have an eye mask or face mask section for a resting or sleeping position for the user. The lower portion of the frame is aligned with the back of the user so that the weight of the user stabilizes the frame. The rods connect the lower portion and the upper portion of the frame so that stabilization from the back of the user supports the pad and head of the user.

A system includes a wearer role identification device, a garment with a dynamically modifiable display, and a hardware controller for the dynamically modifiable display. The wearer role identification device identifies a dynamically changeable role of the wearer of the garment. The hardware controller adjusts the dynamically modifiable display based on real-time inputs received from the wearer role identification device.

Provided is an intelligent self-heating garment, whereby the temperature of the garment is adjusted according to the user's intuitive action based on the experience. The garment includes: a garment body; a heater provided in the garment body; a controller adjusting a heating temperature of the heater; and a temperature adjusting unit inputting an adjusting signal to the controller, and the adjusting signal being used for adjusting the heating temperature, wherein the temperature adjusting unit adjusts intensity of the adjusting signal according to a change in a size of an aperture provided in the garment body through which a body part of a user passes.

An athletic shoe with a legging sleeve connected thereto. The athletic shoe may take any of a variety of high-performance shoes known in the art, such as tennis shoes, basketball shoes, and the like. The legging sleeve component is integrally connected as part of the shoe and is extensible over the calf, knees and thigh of the wearer and operative to form a compressive fit thereabout. Integrated as part of such legging sleeve may include pockets, channels and pouches for receiving brace structures, support devices, protective coverings and a variety of other implements to facilitate movement, support and promote proper form when playing sports. Such device may further include integration with sensors so as to monitor physical activity, or measurement of a variety of other physiological parameters for use in a variety of applications.

A ventilated garment is configured to be supported on a wearer to provide ventilation to a body part of the wearer. The garment can include an air flow guide that is defined by inner and outer panels. A blower is positioned in the air flow guide to draw air in through an intake and discharge the air through an outlet of the guide. The guide can be arranged on the garment so the intake is adjacent the base of the back of the wearer and the outlet is adjacent the neck. The garment can include a support cushion in operative alignment with the blower to cushion the body part from the blower when the blower is pressed between the body part and a support surface.

A glove comprises a textile component and an electronic module component wherein the textile component comprises in order: a flame-resistant fabric having inner and outer surfaces, a first temperature detecting sensor located next to the inner surface of the flame-resistant fabric, at least one thermally insulating fabric having inner and outer surfaces, a second temperature detecting sensor located on the inner surface of the thermally insulating fabric that is closest to the skin of the wearer and an electronic module component capable of predicting body burns comprising a removable encapsulated electronic module located in a pocket of the glove.

A smart sweater suit made of sweater material, such as cotton, wool, polyester, or any other suitable fabric. It can be rain-proofed or adapted for use in all weather. There are fringed epaulettes on the shoulders removably attached by hook and loop fasteners. There are pockets for an electronic device capable of interactive voice communication and answering questions posed by the wearer, which may be sold in combination with the suit, and for a laptop computer and a cell phone. In a first preferred embodiment, it has a conventional collar, with a button-down front. The waistband has belt loops. In a second preferred embodiment, the smart sweater suit is made of the same material, but the top is a pullover with no buttons, and a turtleneck. The ends of the sleeves can be elastic or an elastic and drawstring combination. The suit pants have an elastic waistband and drawstring.

A head for a walk-around costume is provided that is adapted for enhanced visibility. The costume head includes an outer shell defining an interior space for receiving a head of a human performer. The outer shell includes an aperture allowing incoming light from an exterior space to enter the interior space, and an eye location for the human performer is spaced apart from the aperture when the head is received in the interior space. To provide an enlarged field of view, the costume head includes an optical viewfinder assembly disposed within the interior space of the outer shell between the aperture and the eye location. The optical viewfinder assembly is adapted for receiving the incoming light and transmitting the incoming light to the eye location to move a viewpoint of the human performer to the aperture to provide a larger field of view of the exterior space.
