  • Publication number: 20200197785
    Abstract: 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.

  • Publication number: 20170238850
    Abstract: A mouth guard, or wearable device, senses impact forces, calculates risk factors for injury, and displays status of risk and potential injury. A mouth guard may be used to identify, treat and prevent exacerbating brain injury. A wearable device can be programmed with biometric data to better calculate and anticipate impact thresholds and more precisely predict and prevent injury.

  • Publication number: 20150119759
    Abstract: A mouth guard senses concussive forces, calculates risk factors for head injury, and displays status of risk and potential injury. The mouth guard may be used to identify, treat and prevent exacerbating injury. The mouth guard can be programmed with biometric data to better calculate and anticipate impact thresholds and more precisely predict and prevent injury.
