Protective head gear with sensors

Abstract

A head gear device is provided which includes at least one sensor attached to a user's helmet to detect objects around and about a user of the head gear device to avoid impact. Each sensor may be attached or embedded in the helmet and may be wirelessly connected to device (such as cell phone, cloud, etc) to collect data regarding the activity around the user.

1 . A smart helmet comprising a helmet and a sensor system embedded in said helmet, wherein said sensor system includes at least one sensor to detect objects around said helmet to alert a user of said helmet. 
     
     
         2 . A smart helmet comprising a helmet and a sensor system attach to an external surface of said helmet, wherein said sensor system includes at least one sensor to detect objects around said helmet to alert a user of said helmet. 
     
     
         3 . The smart helmet of  claim 1  wherein the helmet further comprises at least one transmitter to transmit information from the at least one sensor to a remote device. 
     
     
         4 . The smart helmet of  claim 1  wherein the helmet further comprises at least one receiver to receive information from a remote device to the at least one sensor. 
     
     
         5 . The smart helmet of  claim 1  wherein the helmet further comprises at least one signal device to alert a user of an object or person around said user. 
     
     
         6 . The smart helmet of  claim 1  wherein the helmet further comprises at least one signal device to alert a user of an object or person around said user. 
     
     
         7 . The smart helmet of  claim 7  wherein said at least one signal includes a sound signal, a visual signal, a sensory signal or combinations thereof. 
     
     
         8 . The smart helmet of  claim 1  wherein the helmet further comprises plurality of sensors and at least one signal device. 
     
     
         9 . The smart helmet of  claim 1  wherein the helmet further comprises at least one transmitter to transmit information from the at least one sensor to a remote device. 
     
     
         10 . The smart helmet of  claim 2  wherein the helmet further comprises at least one receiver to receive information from a remote device to the at least one sensor. 
     
     
         11 . The smart helmet of  claim 2  wherein the helmet further comprises at least one signal device to alert a user of an object or person around said user. 
     
     
         12 . The smart helmet of  claim 2  wherein the helmet further comprises at least one signal device to alert a user of an object or person around said user. 
     
     
         13 . The smart helmet of  claim 12  wherein said at least one signal includes a sound signal, a visual signal, a sensory signal or combinations thereof. 
     
     
         14 . The smart helmet of  claim 2  wherein the helmet further comprises plurality of sensors and at least one signal device. 
     
     
         15 . A smart helmet comprising a helmet and a sensor system embedded in said helmet, wherein said sensor system includes at least one sensor to detect a status change due to an object around said helmet, a transmitter to transmit the status change of the at least one sensor, a receiver to accept the status change from the transmitter, a processor to process the status change from the receiver and transmit a warning action and a signal device to receive the warning action and implement said warning action to warn the user of a potential danger.
