REACTIVE: Personal Safety Platform

These patents introduce a breakthrough evolution in personal protection technology by transforming apparel into intelligent, active safety systems. Instead of relying solely on passive visibility or human-to-human signaling, this invention integrates real-time sensing, condition-awareness, and broadcast communication capabilities directly into clothing and personal wearables. The result is apparel that does not merely cover the body, it actively protects it and communicates on its behalf.

At the core of the platform is user-protection circuitry integrated seamlessly into the garment. This circuitry includes environmental condition-detection sensors that monitor surroundings and generate one or more data signals related to external conditions. These signals are processed by integrated control electronics, which in turn activate broadcast circuitry featuring at least one pulsing device, such as LEDs, visual indicators, haptics, or acoustic cues, to immediately communicate the wearer’s presence, motion intent, hazard status, or environmental alerts. In operation, the garment actively senses situational conditions and responds by delivering dynamic, meaningful, user-directed or autonomous signaling to those nearby.

This invention responds to a clear and growing need. Today, bicyclists, motorcyclists, pedestrians, emergency responders, and law-enforcement officers have limited, often outdated means of signaling their presence and intentions to others. Hand gestures, fixed turn signals, reflectors, or passive visual markings fail to address real-time safety demands, especially in low-light environments, high-traffic zones, and rapidly changing scenarios. Likewise, these individuals have limited ability to detect and interpret the intent and proximity of surrounding road users and pedestrians. These patents solve this two-sided communication gap by enabling wearables that perceive the environment and broadcast adaptive, attention-directing safety signals in response.

These patented wearable systems fundamentally rethink personal safety by providing a modular, self-contained, and intelligent platform that elevates human visibility, signaling clarity, and situational confidence. Whether worn by cyclists navigating traffic, officers directing scenes at night, workers in hazardous job sites, or pedestrians crossing busy intersections, this technology enhances human-machine and human-human communication at the street level and in field environments where milliseconds and visibility matter.

In effect, these inventions transform everyday apparel into a proactive safety network node, one capable of sensing, interpreting, alerting, guiding, and protecting. They offer the foundation for next-generation smart clothing and wearable safety systems across public, professional, and commercial applications. By placing situational awareness and responsive signaling directly on the individual, these patents establish a new standard in modern personal protection, visibility, and communication infrastructure.
