A face mask with embedded technology is provided. The face mask may include a face covering portion with attachment members. The attachment members are configured to secure the face covering portion to a face of a wearer. Technology may be embedded within the face covering portion, wherein the embedded technology enhances human expression of the wearer. The embedded technology may be a digital screen with a micro controller, a speaker with a micro controller, an air intake sensor, a visual element, a GPS device, a timer, or the like. Further, in some embodiments, the embedded technology is coupled to a user computing device, wherein the user computing device operates to provide additional control of the embedded technology.

A device for indicating appropriate social distancing includes the ability to project light (in various forms and in a various ways) onto the ground in a manner visible by the user and those around them. A boundary of the projected light can be set to an acceptable social distance and can include different colors to indicated varying social distances for varying levels of trusted individuals. Proximity sensors set to appropriate distancing requirements, along with the varying levels of trust can be implemented into multiple devices being used in a group setting.

A helmet which has a plurality of substantially longitudinal members arranged side-by-side, the longitudinal members being in fluid communication with each other. It has a first inflated state in which the longitudinal members are distributed to form a substantially concave shape, and a second compressed state in which the longitudinal members lie flat and substantially coincident against each other. Each longitudinal member is separated from neighbouring longitudinal members by a tubular connecting member in a lattice configuration. The helmet may be made of HDPE or nylon.

An impact resistance spreading helmet is disclosed. The helmet includes a frontal section configured to interface with the forehead of an individual and extend upward over the cranium; a medial section for extending over a portion of the cranium rearward of the frontal section; an occipital section for extending rearward from the medial section and configured to cover a portion of the neck of the individual; a first compressible structure disposed between the frontal section and the medial section; and a second compressible structure disposed between the medial section and the occipital section. The interface between the frontal section and the first compressible structure is disposed at an angle vertical to a force direction perpendicular to the frontal section above the forehead of the individual.

A device for indicating appropriate social distancing includes the ability to project light (in various forms and in a various ways) onto the ground in a manner visible by the user and those around them. A boundary of the projected light can be set to an acceptable social distance and can include different colors to indicated varying social distances for varying levels of trusted individuals. Proximity sensors set to appropriate distancing requirements, along with the varying levels of trust can be implemented into multiple devices being used in a group setting.

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for providing training opportunities based on data collected from monitoring a physiological parameter of persons engaged in physical activity. The physical activity can be a sporting activity, such as a contact sport (e.g., football, hockey, lacrosse) or a recreational activity or sport (e.g., biking, hiking, skiing, snowboarding, motorsports). The system is configured with select components that perform a method of (i) recording data related to a physiological parameter of a person engaged in a physical activity (e.g., an impact received by a player engaged in a contact sport), (ii) analyzing the recorded data related to the physiological parameter while the person is engaged in a physical activity (e.g., is the received impact greater than a predetermined threshold), and (iii) providing post-physical activity analysis of the recorded data to make suggested changes in how the person engages in the physical activity.

A method of synchronizing flashing between a plurality of marker system components mounted on a helmet includes receiving a signal from at least one global positioning satellite receiver, the signal comprising a time value. When the time value indicates illumination is needed, initiating illumination of at least one light emitting device of each the marker system components, thereby, synchronizing of the initiating of illumination to the time value for all marker system components.

Methods, systems and wearable devices are provided, which are associated with users in communicating group(s). Devices receive or derive their position, calculate their device axis orientation with respect to an axis of a reference frame and a line of sight (LOS) of associated component(s) or user, and deliver specified data to other users according to their position with respect to the LOS and predefined rules. The systems may be configured to understand the nature of the situation and to enable automatic sharing of relevant digital information among the users within a dynamic network according to specified criteria (e.g., thresholds). Pictures and videos may be shared automatically with the relevant friends assuming that those friends are within the position and orientation of the taken image, linked within a private network to the user sharing the image, and approved to receive such data from the network.

The present disclosure relates to the field of riding equipment, and particularly to a headband and a multifunctional helmet. The headband comprises a strap configured to bind a head, an adjustment assembly that adjusts the tightness of the strap, and an electronic device that endows the headband with intelligent properties. The strap is connected to the adjustment assembly, and the electronic device is disposed within the adjustment assembly and connected to the adjustment assembly. The headband is an accessory of the helmet, electronic devices are combined with the headband such that the headband has electronic functions associated therewith, expanding the use range of the headband.

A helmet for communicating with a vehicle function controller and method for operating the same has a first memory, a first transmitter, a first receiver and a first controller in communication with the first memory, the first transmitter and the first receiver. The first receiver receives a plurality of vehicle function settings. The first memory stores the vehicle function settings within a memory of the helmet. The first transmitter communicates the vehicle function settings from the first memory to the vehicle function controller.
