An adaptive support garment integrating directional fabrics to assist in providing adaptive support to select portions of the garment is discussed herein. The adaptive support garment can include a first directional fabric, a second direction fabric, and a tension device. The first directional fabric includes first directional fibers, and the first directional fabric can be coupled to a fixed portion of the adaptive support garment. The second directional fabric includes second directional fibers, and the second directional fabric can be coupled to a movable control structure portion of the adaptive support garment. The tension device can be coupled to the movable control structure and configured to apply a tension in a first direction on the movable control structure. In operation, the first directional fibers can engage with the second directional fibers to resist movement in a second direction opposite the first direction.

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

A mouth guard senses impact forces and determines if the forces exceed an impact threshold. If so, the mouth guard notifies the user of the risk for injury by haptic feedback, vibratory feedback, and/or audible feedback. The mouth guard system may also remotely communicate the status of risk and the potential injury. The mouth guard uses a local memory device to store impact thresholds based on personal biometric information obtained from the user and compares the sensed forces relative to those threshold values. The mouth guard and its electrical components on the printed circuit board are custom manufactured for the user such that the mouth guard provides a comfortable and reliable fit, while ensuring exceptional performance.

A physiological signal collection electrode comprises a signal collection pad having a skin contact portion, a signal output pad and an elongate bridging portion interconnecting the signal collection pad and the signal output pad. The signal collection pad, the signal output portion and the bridging portion are integrally molded of a flexible, conductive and resilient material. The width of the bridging portion is substantially smaller than that of the skin contact portion. A narrowed bridging portion operates to concentrate collected physiological signals collected by the skin contact portion before the signals are output to the signal output pad. An elongate bridging portion reduces skin covering area for better wearer comfort as well as providing better resiliency to the electrode when the bridging portion is extended.

The present invention relates to a device, system and method for generating information on musculoskeletal recovery of a subject. To enable the generation of additional information on recovery of a subject to better avoid over-fatigue, injuries and overuse fractures, the device (10) comprises a sensor input (11) configured to receive a motion parameter and/or motion signal related to motion of the subject performing an activity; a processor (12) configured to determine from the motion parameter and/or motion signal a measure of impact load, determine from the measure of impact load a measure of musculoskeletal damage, and determine from the measure of impact load information on musculoskeletal recovery indicating to which extent the musculoskeletal damage recovers over time; and an output (13) configured to output the determined information on musculoskeletal recovery.

A method according to one embodiment includes receiving baseline health data of a user, receiving activity-based health data of the user collected by a sensor device worn by the user while participating in physical activity, and receiving environmental-based data of the user. A baseline core body temperature of the user is calculated. It is determined whether a core body temperature of the user has increased a predetermined amount from the baseline core body temperature of the user for a predetermined amount of time during each of a predetermined number of time intervals. In response to a determination that the core body temperature has increased the predetermined amount from the baseline core body temperature of the user for the predetermined amount of time during each of the predetermined number of time intervals, a personalized schedule is generated for the user to follow while participating in the physical activity.

A method according to one embodiment includes determining whether a user has successfully heat acclimatized to a predetermined environment. Subsequent to a determination that the user has successfully heat acclimatized, it is determined whether the user has heat de-acclimatized to the predetermined environment. In response to a determination that the user has heat de-acclimatized, a predetermined process is performed. The predetermined process includes determining whether the user has successfully heat re-acclimatized to the predetermined environment. The predetermined process further includes updating a personalized schedule and outputting the updated personalized schedule to a user device of the user in response to a determination that the user has successfully heat re-acclimatized to the predetermined environment, and outputting an alert to the user device of the user and/or to a user device of a second user in response to a determination that the user has not successfully heat re-acclimatized to the predetermined environment.

A method according to one embodiment includes receiving baseline health data of a user, receiving activity-based health data of the user collected by a sensor device worn by the user while participating in physical activity and receiving environmental-based data of the user collected by the sensor device worn by the user. An alert is output for display on a user device in response to a determination that a core body temperature of the user is greater than a predetermined threshold temperature. A personalized schedule is generated for the user to follow while participating in the physical activity. The personalized schedule includes at least one instruction of when to start participating in the physical activity and at least one instruction of when to stop participating in the physical activity. The method further includes outputting the personalized schedule for display on the user device.

Systems and methods for detecting athletic performance and fatigue are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method for monitoring athletic performance of an athlete includes: monitoring a heart rate (HR) of the athlete by a wearable electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor carried by the athlete; determining a rate of change of the HR over a period of time; comparing the rate of change to a predetermined threshold; and based on the comparing, determining whether the athlete is fatigued.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method operating at a processing system including a processor, including detecting a difference between current biometric information of a user and target biometric information of the user exceeding a threshold at a performance event of the user to identify a biometric deficiency, detecting an absence of a desired environmental component for the user at the performance event, selecting a remediation experience responsive to the detecting the biometric deficiency and the detecting the absence of the desired environmental component, facilitating presentation of the remediation experience to the user at the performance event to generate a modified performance by the user, and adjusting the presentation of the remediation experience to the user at a termination of the performance event. Other embodiments are disclosed.
