Smart athletic wear and related systems and methods
An athletic wear includes at least one of an athlete garment, a helmet, a glove, a wristband, a headband, a mouth guard, and a pad. A plurality of sensors and at least one camera are integrated into the at least one of the athlete garment, the helmet, the glove, the wristband, the headband, the mouth guard, and the pad. A processor is in signal communication with the plurality of sensors and the at least one camera for receiving, analyzing, and transmitting data signals obtained by the plurality of sensors and the at least one camera. The plurality of sensors are configured to obtain a wearer's physiological data, position data and movement data.
1. A smart athletic wear system comprising:
a processor;
a mouthguard including at least one sensor in communication with the processor, the at least one sensor being configured to supply information about biometric data sensed in a wearer's mouth to the processor;
a helmet including a fluid packet and a medication packet configured to supply fluid and medication, respectively, to the mouthguard via respective dispensing lines;
a spine connected to the helmet via a joint; and
an oil reserve connected to the joint such that oil can fluctuate through the spine and the helmet to absorb weight.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sensor includes a dehydration sensor configured to determine a dehydration condition of the wearer based on an amount of saliva produced in the wearer's mouth.
3. The system of claim 2 , further comprising a user device having a display in communication with the processor, the user device being configured to display the dehydration condition on the display.
4. The system of claim 3 , wherein the at least one sensor further includes a temperature sensor, the user device being further configured to display a body temperature of the wearer determined by the temperature sensor.
5. The system of claim 3 , further comprising a speaker in communication with the processor, the processor being configured to audibly indicate a need for water through the speaker.
6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the speaker is carried by the helmet.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the at least one sensor further includes at least one eye movement sensor carried by the helmet and configured to monitor eye movement of the wearer.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the processor is configured to identify a wearer health condition based on the eye movement of the wearer.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the health condition includes at least one of a concussion, a seizure, and a stroke.
10. A smart athletic wear system comprising:
a processor;
a mouthguard including at least one sensor in communication with the processor, the at least one sensor being configured to supply information about biometric data sensed in a wearer's mouth to the processor;
a user device having a display in communication with the processor;
a speaker in communication with the processor; and
a helmet including a fluid packet and a medication packet configured to supply fluid and medication, respectively, to the mouthguard via respective dispensing lines,
wherein the at least one sensor includes a dehydration sensor configured to determine a dehydration condition of the wearer based on an amount of saliva produced in the wearer's mouth;
wherein the user device is configured to display the dehydration condition on the display;
wherein the processor is configured to audibly indicate a need for water through the speaker;
wherein the speaker is carried by the helmet;
wherein the at least one sensor further includes at least one eye movement sensor carried by the helmet and configured to monitor eye movement of the wearer; and
wherein the at least one sensor further includes a pressure sensor responsive to the wearer biting the mouthguard, the processor being further configured to determine if the wearer is in pain based on the pressure sensor and the at least one eye movement sensor, the user device being further configured to display the user pain determination.
11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the medication packet is configured to dispense an aerosol or gas medication.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the helmet further includes:
a packet door controlling access to the medication packet; and
a trigger button usable by the wearer to dispense medication.
