An ostomy pouching system is described. A baseplate includes a seal adapted to be securely placed on the skin about the perimeter of tissue defining a stoma incised into a patient. An ostomy reservoir forms a sealed space within which discharge can be received and held. A flex layer includes a seal that is airtight, watertight, or both, and which is structurally interposed between at least a portion of two or more of the skin, tissue, stoma, baseplate, and ostomy reservoir. The flex layer includes a resiliently and elastically malleable phase change material. The flex layer is deformable such that at least one portion of the flex layer can transmute the magnitude of a force applied to the flex layer and redirect the force. External forces acting upon at least one of the skin, tissue, stoma, baseplate, and ostomy reservoir are mitigated, transmuted, and isolated by the flex layer.

A wearable computing device that is secured or attached to a resilient strap, the resilient strap sized to fit around at least a part of a circumference of a human head. The device has a waterproof storage volume housing a plurality of sensors. The wearable computing device may calculate a plurality of swimming metrics based at least partly on data received from the at least one sensor. The wearable computing device may include a wireless communication subsystem secured to the resilient strap within the waterproof storage volume and may transmit at least one of the calculated plurality of swimming metrics to at least one computing device via the wireless communication subsystem. The wearable computing device may include at least one user output component and may present an indication of at least one of the calculated plurality of swimming metrics at the at least one user output component for communication to the user. The indication may be audio played in an ear piece connected to the strap, or may be visually displayed on a display in an eye goggle portion of the strap.

The present disclosure provides a pair of swimming goggles comprising a glass insert in each goggle lens. Each goggle lens comprises a body constructed form a substrate material and a glass insert received within a lip extending upwardly from around the perimeter of the body. The glass insert may be installed on top of a coating on a substrate material of the goggle lens. The glass insert may comprise a glass plate having an adhesive sheet on an underside thereof.

The invention relates to spectacles, systems and methods for visibility enhancement, including by glare suppression. The spectacles, systems and methods for visibility enhancement includes spectacles and a spectacle lens having a liquid crystal cell (LC), the transmission (TR) of which may be varied by a suitable control and the liquid crystal cell (LC) designed so that the transmission (TR) of the liquid crystal cell (LC) may be switched between high and low transmission states. The liquid crystal cell (LC) includes a control for regulating the times of the state of high transmission (T.sub.on) of the liquid crystal cell (LC) such that the temporal position of the times of the high transmission state (T.sub.on) within a period of times of the high transmission state (T.sub.on) and times of the low transmission state (T.sub.off) may be altered continuously or discontinuously; and/or the duration of a period of times of the high transmission state (T.sub.on) and times of the low transmission state (T.sub.off) may be altered continuously or discontinuously. Such changes may be determined by a secret coding key.

The present invention relates to water goggles, and particularly relates to water goggles having an excellent waterproofing effect, including a rim, a lens sealedly arranged on the rim, an elastic waterproofing ring sealedly arranged on an inside edge of the rim, and a head band whereof two ends are separately connected to the elastic waterproofing ring. The flexible waterproofing ring includes a first connection part connected to the rim, a support part connected to the first connection part, a left-eye contact part connected to the support part and pressed against the rim of a person's left eye, and a right-eye contact part connected to the support part and pressed against the rim of a person's right eye. The left side of the head band is connected to the left-eye contact part, and the right side of the head band is connected to the right-eye contact part.

A pair of eye goggles is provided. The pair of eye goggles includes a nosepiece fittable over a portion of a wearer's face, the nosepiece comprising one or more strands, at least a portion of the nosepiece comprising a phase change material, wherein a shape of the nosepiece changes upon an application of an energy to the phase changing portion to conform to the face; and a pair of eyepieces connected to the nosepiece.

A swimming training aid is provided and comprises an elongate buoyant body. The body has a generally circular section along substantially the entirety of its length, and the diameter of the body is non-constant along at least the majority of its length.

An apparatus and method for measuring a swimmer's speed and conveying the speed to the swimmer in real time includes a plurality of ultrasonic beacons each having a transducer configured to emit ultrasonic signals in a pool or other body of water within which the swimmer is swimming. A wearable, waterproof, ultrasonic receiver worn by the swimmer, receives the ultrasonic signals and generates corresponding signal data. The receiver's microcontroller captures and uses the signal data to calculate the swimmer's position and speed in real time, and conveys this information to a wearable, waterproof, user interface device worn by the swimmer, the user interface device including a near-eye display disposed on the swimmer's goggles.

A cushion pad assembled on a frame of a swimming goggles is provided, which includes a connecting portion that has an inner peripheral surface and outer peripheral surface, and a face-attaching portion that is connected to the connecting portion and has an outer ring surface and an inner ring surface . The cushion pad is characterized in that: the inner ring surface of the face-attaching portion is of a wavy curve that conforms to the depth and height of the outer periphery of the eye socket. A plurality of independent buffering bodies are provided between the outer peripheral surface of the connecting portion and the outer ring surface of the face-attaching portion, and each of the buffering bodies is jointly composed of a first supporting member, a second supporting member and a joint at an intersection of the first supporting member and the second supporting member.

A system for the color coding of objects in the field of view of a plurality of spectacle wearers includes a pair of spectacles per spectacle wearer. Liquid crystal cells of at least one spectacle lens of the spectacles are so designed that a transmission (TR) of the liquid crystal cells may be switched between high and low transmission states. The system also includes one RGB light source per spectacle wearer and means for controlling or regulating the luminance times, color and intensity of the RGB light source such that the light source for a first spectacle wearer illuminates with a first color at a time of the state of high transmission of the liquid crystal cell and the light source for a second spectacle wearer illuminates at a time of high transmission of the liquid crystal cell of their spectacles with a second color different from the first.
