SENSOR MODULE FOR SENSING FORCES TO THE HEAD OF AN INDIVIDUAL AND WIRELESSLY TRANSMITTING SIGNALS CORRESPONDING THERETO FOR ANALYSIS, TRACKING AND/OR REPORTING THE SENSED FORCES
Sensor module for sensing forces to the head of an individual and wirelessly transmitting signals corresponding thereto for analysis, tracking and/or reporting the sensed forces.
ALL-IN-ONE WATER APPAREL
An article of water resistant clothing that includes a water resistant underlay layer. The water resistant underlay layer includes at least one compression panel to compress a portion of a body of a user wearing the water resistant clothing. The article of swimwear includes a water resistant overlay layer disposed over the water resistant underlay layer. The water resistant overlay layer exposes at least a portion of the water resistant underlay layer through material of the water resistant overlay layer. The article of water resistant clothing includes a set of fasteners embedded in at least one of the water resistant underlay layer or the water resistant overlay layer to couple the water resistant underlay layer to the water resistant overlay layer.
UTILITY JACKET FOR DOG WALKING
A jacket that is worn by a person walking a dog includes a main torso covering portion which can be closed to protect and provide warmth to the wearer's torso. A leash that can be utilized as a belt can be used to snuggly fit the jacket around the user's waist. The jacket also includes an exterior pocket that includes a roll of waste bags, typically in a roll. The exterior pocket includes an opening on the front surface of the pocket where a grommet is typically attached around the perimeter of the opening. The bag is pulled through the opening in the grommet to gain access to the bag. The lead bag is removed from the roll along the perforation separating the bags such that the walker can manually remove a bag from the pocket and tear the first bag away from the following bag while leaving the following bag in a position that is easily gripped for the next required cleaning.
COVER SYSTEM
A method and apparatus can include: providing a cover, the cover including face cover, neck cover, crown cover, side cover, and back cover; creating a cover opening in the cover above the face cover for exposure of facial features of a user from the cover; attaching a helmet cover at an attachment point near the back cover configured to expand around a helmet; and forming a helmet cover opening in the helmet.
Hooded Sweatshirt Securing Device
A hooded sweatshirt securing device includes a plurality of bags which each has a unique engagement element with respect to each other to releasably engage a respective type of article of head wear that is worn on a user's head. A band is included which is continuous such that the band can be positioned around a headband that is worn on the user's head. A plurality of first disks is positioned within a respective one of the plurality of bags and the band. A coupler is provided that has a coupling element which is releasably matable to the first disk associated with a respective one of the plurality of bags. The coupler can be positioned on a hood of a hooded sweatshirt thereby facilitating the coupler to attach the hood to the article of headwear to which the respective receiver is attached.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING TRANSCRANIAL MAGNETIC STIMULATION (TMS) TO A PATIENT
Apparatus for applying Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to a patient, wherein the apparatus comprises: a head mount for disposition on the head of a patient; and a plurality of magnet assemblies for releasable mounting on the head mount, wherein each of the magnet assemblies comprises a magnet for selectively providing a rapidly changing magnetic field capable of inducing weak electric currents in the brain of a patient so as to modify the natural electrical activity of the brain of the patient; wherein the number of magnet assemblies mounted on the head mount, their individual positioning on the head mount, and their selective provision of a rapidly changing magnetic field is selected so as to allow the spatial, strength and temporal characteristics of the magnetic field to be custom tailored for each patient, whereby to provide patient-specific TMS therapy, to assist in diagnosis or to map out brain function in neuroscience research. In one preferred form of the invention, each of the magnet assemblies comprises a magnet for selectively providing a rapidly changing magnetic field of at least 500-600 Tesla/second corresponding to a magnet movement speed of no less than 400 Hertz.

System For Applying Indicia To A Reversible Garment
A system (10) for applying indicia to a reversible garment. The system is comprised of an indicia barrier (12) typically in the form of a square (14) and a reversible garment (38) that includes a first layer (40) with an inner section (42) and an outer section (44), and a second layer (46) with an inner section and an outer section. A re-sealable opening (58) having an opening fastener (60) allows the indicia barrier (12) to be inserted between either of the layers, thereby creating an impediment between the layers. Once the indicia barrier (12) is in place, indicia can be applied to one surface of the layer without also being applied to the adjoining layer. The reversible garment (38) can be turned inside-out and indicia can then be applied to the other surface of the layer.
