A system including a head-mounted device having a face shield; a respirator coupled to or embodied in the head mounted device; a light having a light intensity; a light detector, and a computing device communicatively coupled to the at least one light detector that receive from the light detector data indicting a type and intensity of light, and determine that the light matches a particular type of light and whether it exceeds a threshold, and on the basis of this determination, modifies the intensity of the light.

An apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is for automatically managing a helmet. Because the inside of a helmet may be sterilized and dried in a short time, a comfortable safety helmet may be ensured even during a short break time. Also, because charging may be performed without removing attachments such as an IoT device, an electronic device, and an illumination light from the helmet, the inconvenience of time and effort spent on attaching and detaching the attachments may be eliminated. Also, because the attachments such as the IoT device, the electronic device, and the illumination light may be charged at every break in the middle of work, a required capacity of a rechargeable battery may be reduced, a weight of the attachments may be reduced, and thus, the burden on the user to use the helmet may be reduced.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide measures, including apparatus, methods, circuitry, and computer program products for use in impact detection. Example apparatus comprises a plurality of sensors. The apparatus is configured to determine whether a user is wearing an item in which the apparatus is comprised, and in response to a positive determination, operate the apparatus in an active operating mode. The active operating mode comprises operating one or more sensors in the plurality to generate data associated with motion of the user at a first sampling rate.

A shared ride system comprising a SIPV further comprising at least an integrated safety device wherein the safety device is a coupled safety helmet.

A SIPV system comprising: a SIPV network connecting to at least a SIPV that is available for rental where an integrated safety control apparatus is operably connected to a safety device mounted on the SIPV and upon rental of the SIPV, the safety device is deployed for use from the SIPV.

A safety integrated electrically powered vehicle (SIPV) apparatus comprising an electric vehicle further comprising at least an integrated safety control apparatus wherein the integrated safety control apparatus polls a plurality of sensors to detect current SIPV data related to safe use, a communication link to an integrated safety control apparatus to transmit a plurality of data representative of the current use of a SIPV, and receive from the SIPV system at least an instruction received from the integrated safety control apparatus via the communication link to direct a plurality of control units on the SIPV to modify current operation parameters to bring the SIPV back to a safe use.

A medical garment for use with a helmet, wherein the garment comprises a shell and a transparent face shield configured to define a barrier between the wearer and the environment. The transparent face shield may comprise a tab configured to be at least partially disposed within an alignment channel of the helmet when the medical garment is attached to the helmet to orient the shell relative to the helmet. The tab may also be separate from the transparent face shield and disposed on the shell of the medical garment. The transparent face shield may also comprise an attachment element configured to removably couple with a coupling member of the helmet, wherein the attachment element and coupling member comprise complementary coupling surfaces.

The present invention is directed to a helmet wearing determination system including a imaging means that is installed in a predetermined position and images a two-wheel vehicle that travels on a road; and a helmet wearing determination means that processes an image imaged by the imaging means, estimates a rider head region corresponding to a head of a person who rides on the two-wheel vehicle that travels on the road, compares image characteristics of the rider head region with image characteristics according to the head at a time when a helmet is worn or/and at a time when a helmet is not worn, and determines whether or not the rider wears the helmet.

The present disclosure includes a retrofit sensor module for use with a protective head top with a helmet and a visor. The sensor module includes a sensor housing and an attachment mechanism. The sensor housing encloses a head presence sensor to sense when the protective head top is being worn. The sensor housing also encloses a position sensor to sense the position of the visor relative to the helmet. The retrofit sensor module further comprises an attachment mechanism secured to the housing. The attachment mechanism mates with a first hinge component of a hinge assembly in the protective head top to removably install the sensor module into the protective head top, wherein the hinge assembly allows the visor to move relative to the helmet.
