Abstract: A ballistic resistant panel can be configured to be quickly and easily installed in a vehicle door. The ballistic resistant panel can include a plurality of ballistic sheets arranged in a stack. The stack can have an outer perimeter sized to fit within a cavity of the vehicle door. The panel can include a cover disposed over the stack, and the cover can be sealed around a perimeter of the stack to form a waterproof barrier that prevents moisture from reaching and altering the performance of the ballistic sheets. At least one anti-wear strip can be adhered to an outer surface of the cover. The anti-wear strip can provide a low friction surface that protects the panel from damage caused by moving internal door components, such as moving window components that repeatedly rub against the panel.

Abstract: A protective case for an electronic device includes a protective shell and a flexible portion. The protective shell has an inner surface, an outer surface, and side members that define a perimeter of the protective shell. The side members at least partially cover respective sides of the electronic device when the electronic device is in the protective shell. The protective shell also has cutouts extending from the inner surface to the outer surface. The flexible portion is disposed on the inner surface of the protective shell and extends through cutouts of the protective shell to at least the outer surface of the protective shell.

Abstract: A protective helmet can reduce the likelihood of a player sustaining a brain injury while engaging in a contact sporting event. The helmet can include a hard outer shell with exterior and interior surfaces. The helmet can include an impact-absorbing layer adjacent to the interior surface of the outer shell. The impact-absorbing layer can have a base layer and flexible raised portions extending from the base layer toward the interior surface of the outer shell. During a collision with another player, the flexible raised portions can topple over to allow the outer shell to rotate relative to the impact-absorbing layer. The flexible raised portions can topple over and increase the duration of a collision, thereby reducing the peak rotational acceleration experienced by the player's head's center of gravity and, in turn, reducing the likelihood of the player sustaining a brain injury from the collision.
