Configurable user tracking and site safety

A configurable site safety system includes a plurality of wearable signaling devices, each with an array of independently addressable lighting elements, a location receiver and one or more communication interfaces. The system may also include a site safety server to track location information received from at least each of the signaling devices, and to cause, based on a subset of the plurality of signaling devices satisfying defined geographical, event-based or other defined criteria, the lighting array of each of the subset of signaling devices to display a defined lighting scheme.

Protective headgear with integrally-formed layer

A helmet may be worn on a head of a wearer having a shape and a contour. The helmet may have a plurality of layers coupled together including an energy management layer and an outer shell layer disposed over the energy management layer. The plurality of layers are integrally formed with one another, and the energy management layer is configured to absorb and dissipate energy received by the helmet during an impact by an external force. The outer shell layer is configured to disperse and dissipate impact energy from the external force. Each of the plurality of layers has a density and a geometry, and the density or geometry of at least one layer differs from the density or geometry of at least another layer.

Hard hat communication system

The present invention relates to a hard hat, comprising: a rigid outer shell, a vibration transducer secured to the exterior of the rigid outer shell, the vibration transducer operative to vibrate the rigid outer shell when active; and a control system coupled to the hard hat, the control system further operably coupled to the vibration transducer such that the control system controls vibration of the vibration transducer. The control system converts received audio communication into a signal sent to the vibration transducer such that activation of the vibration transducer results in vibration of the rigid outer shell, with the rigid outer shell thereby acting as a harmonic resonance acoustic chamber replicating the received audio communication. A kit for converting a hard hat and a method of communication are also disclosed.
