Description

“MULTI-FUNCTIONAL HEADGEAR” TECHNICAL FIELD [001] The disclosed subject matter relates generally to wearing device. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to multi-functional headgear for providing conditioned air to the head and face of the wearer/user. BACKGROUND [002] Helmets are essential safety gear for various activities, including sports, industrial work, and transportation. However, prolonged use can cause discomfort due to increased temperature, humidity, and sweat. To address this issue, some helmet manufacturers have incorporated blower fans in their designs. Unfortunately, most of these designs only provide air to the top of the head, rather than circulating it around the entire head. Other solutions include helmets with integrated air conditioning or ventilation systems, but these can be expensive and complicated to set up due to the challenge of designing an efficient HVAC channel/air distribution channel. [003] Moreover, there is an issue with how to attach an air channel to a helmet. One common approach is to pump air to the top of the head without using any channel at all, which is often not optimal. Another approach is to attach a designed channel to the helmet using tape, which is unsightly and poses a risk of detachment upon impact. Once affixed, the channel cannot be removed, leading to increased weight and discomfort when not in use. [004] There is also a growing demand for helmets with IoT features, such as GPS, communication, vitals tracking, and cameras. However, companies often offer multiple specialized products to meet various user needs, which can be inconvenient for users who do not require all these features. Ideally, IoT features should be offered as modular attachments that can be easily mounted and dismounted onto helmets. However, there is a lack of user- friendly systems that enable seamless attachment and detachment of such IoT modules onto helmets. [005] In the light of the aforementioned discussion, there exists a need for developing headgear with detachable air conditioning and IoT systems. 1 SUMMARY [006] The following presents a simplified summary of the disclosure in order to provide a basic understanding of the reader.
