An Internet of Thing (IoT) sport device includes a sensor coupled to a processor; and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.

The invention includes a protective headpiece and components thereof and methods for their use. Preferred examples comprise a helmet component, a plurality of piers joining said helmet component to a shoulder pad component and an inner hat component permitting the wearer the ability to move the head from side to side and/or up and down within the helmet component without moving the helmet component. The helmet component may comprise a plurality of fluid-filled floating plates or floats on the inner surface thereof to cushion the head against impact during activities including, for example, football, race car driving, military activities and the like.

Athletic gear, such as an athletic garment and/or protective athletic equipment, providing enhanced moisture management to a wearer (e.g., a hockey, lacrosse, football, or other sports player). For example, the athletic gear may have a quick-drying capability to increase a rate of evaporation of moisture.

A neck support for a sport player, includes a fabric treated with a dilatant material, the fabric sized and shaped to be deployed about the player's neck to be supported by the player's shoulders and to be supportive of the player's head. The fabric can be disposed within a neck collar, the neck collar disposed between a helmet worn by the player and the player's shoulders. The collar can include a first component connected to a player's helmet; a second component connected to a player's torso; a ball bearing assembly interposed between the first and second component; and dilatant material arranged between the first component and the ball bearing assembly or between the second component and the ball bearing assembly.

An Internet of Thing (IoT) sport device includes a body with a processor, a camera and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.

An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a body and sensors including a camera and an accelerometer; a processor; and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.

A head and neck support and restraint system including protective headwear worn by a user; an article worn about the shoulders, chest and back of the user; and a dynamic connector that is disposed between and attached to the protective headwear and the worn article that dampens and distributes forces to which the head and neck are subjected during use. Such forces can include forces experienced as a result of acceleration, deceleration, or impact during a collision between the user and another person or object. The dynamic connector also supports and limits the rate and range of motion permitted between the head and neck relative to the shoulders, chest and back of a user when the head or body of the user is subjected to such forces.

An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a camera coupled to a processor; and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor. Blockchain smart contracts can be used with the device to facilitate secure operation.

A system for reducing trauma in the head or neck of a living being caused by acceleration of the head relative to a torso of the living being within a range of motion. The system includes a support engaging at least one of the head, neck, and shoulder of the living being without limiting the range of motion of the head or neck relative to the torso; a sensor in electrical communication with the system; a user interface in electrical communication with the sensor; and a damper associated with the support that is configured to mitigate the position, speed or acceleration of the head relative to the torso in response to information received by the sensor or user interface.
