Publication number: 20230396815Abstract: A system for communicating a plurality of sensations from a first person perspective of an athlete to one or more observers may include a head attachment device having imbedded therein a computer connected to one or more cameras, one or more microphones, and a plurality of impact sensors. The cameras, microphones, and impact sensors may be powered by a battery also imbedded in the head attachment device. The system may also include a broadcast server which may include a wireless receiver in communication with the wireless transmitter of the computer, a processor receiving video, audio, and impact signals from the computer via a receiver. The system may also include an audio/visual display device in communication with the transmitter of the broadcast server. The audio/visual display device may include a processor which converts signals so that the audio, video, and impact signals may be perceived by observers.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2021Publication date: December 7, 2023Inventors: Michael Choren, Jonathan Holloman Metcalf, Brian Hallett Payne, Jonathan Holloman Metcalf, Jr., Douglas Earl Brafford
