Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates to a multi-functional self-defense device designed to protect the wearer from physical attacks and harmful gases, incorporating features such as detection of attackers, camouflage gas release, physiological monitoring, and real-time location tracking, all aimed at enhancing the wearer’s safety, situational awareness, and ability to respond effectively in dangerous environments.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] A vest or jacket is a protective garment designed to safeguard individuals from plastic batons, and other projectiles, playing a critical role in the safety of individuals. Its primary need arises from the increasing risks in dangerous environments, where life-threatening injuries are a constant concern. vests, made from high-strength materials like Kevlar or ceramic plates, provide essential defense by absorbing and dispersing the energy from incoming threats, reducing the risk of serious injury. Beyond battlefield and law enforcement scenarios, vests are also used by security teams, journalists in conflict zones, and even civilians in high-risk areas, reflecting their versatile importance. Advances in vest technology now offer lightweight, more comfortable options without compromising protection, making them suitable for extended wear. By enhancing personal safety, vests support the morale and confidence of wearers, enabling them to perform their duties with greater security and resilience.
[0003] Traditional protective garments designed to shield the wearer from physical threats like plastic batons. Made from materials like steel, ceramic, and later Kevlar, these vests provide vital defense, and security applications. However, traditional vests have notable drawbacks. First, these vests can be extremely heavy, restricting the wearer’s mobility and agility, which is especially challenging in high-movement or combat situations. Additionally, due to their rigid or layered construction, traditional vests can be uncomfortable over prolonged use, causing fatigue and reducing effectiveness. Heat retention is another issue, as the vests limit airflow, leading to overheating in warm climates or during intense physical activity. Moreover, traditional vests often only protect specific areas, leaving other vital body parts exposed, which reduces the wearer’s overall safety. These limitations have driven the development of lighter, more flexible materials to improve comfort, mobility, and comprehensive protection in modern vests designs.
[0004] US3595227A discloses a self-contained underwater breathing apparatus, provided with a nonstretching jacket extending to the user''s waist, inside which a flexible double-walled jacket, connected to a transparent helmet, is pressurized so that it seals water out at waist and sleeve ends, and provides a compliance to allow breathing without any change in the total volume of water displaced by the diver and jacket, since inhalation deflates the flexible bladderlike jacket by approximately the volume inhaled. Improved thermal insulation, ease of breathing, freedom of breathing circuit from water entry, and ready leak detection result.
[0005] US5524293A relates to a cooling vest arranged with a pocket between a denim outer layer and a linen inner layer to receive a flexible vessel containing separate pockets filled with water. The vessel is releasably attachable to the vest and in use the water is cooled or frozen before the vessel is fitted in the pocket. The vest is used for cooling the body of a user either during recreation, or while working in hot conditions or a person who is allergic to dust particles mixed in air emitted from electric air-conditioner or a sick person to reduce his abnormal body temperature or when sickness raises his temperature above normal body temperature.
[0006] Conventionally, many vests are designed primarily to protect against physical impacts; however, these vests fail to provide comprehensive protection by addressing additional threats such as harmful airborne gases, including tear gas or toxic fumes. Unlike traditional vests, the present invention integrates advanced features such as real-time threat detection, camouflage gas release for concealment, physiological monitoring to track health indicators, and location tracking to alert authorized personnel, offering a multifaceted defense system that not only protects against physical harm but also enhances the wearer’s ability to respond to a broader range of environmental and situational hazards.
[0007] To address the limitations of existing vests, there is a need to develop an advanced protective system that not only defends the wearer against physical attacks but also protects from harmful airborne threats like tear gas and toxic fumes, incorporating cutting-edge features such as real-time detection of chemical and biological hazards, camouflage mechanisms for gas neutralization, continuous physiological monitoring to assess the wearer's health, and integrated location tracking for enhanced situational awareness, ensuring comprehensive protection in diverse, high-risk environments while maintaining mobility and adaptability for personal defense applications.

[0010] Another object of the present invention is to develop a device capable of detecting the proximity, number, and direction of attackers by analyzing body heat signatures, providing the wearer with physical alerts through varying vibration patterns based on the threat level, and offering guidance for a safe escape route, thereby enhancing situational awareness and response in dangerous environments.
[0011] Another object of the present invention is to develop a device that detects the presence of attackers and, in response, release a camouflage gas into the surrounding area to conceal the attackers’ visibility, thereby reducing the risk of detection and facilitating the wearer’s escape by creating a temporary visual shield.
[0012] Another object of the present invention is to develop a device capable of detecting the real-time location coordinates of the wearer and automatically notifying authorized personnel with this information during an incident, enabling prompt response and ensuring the wearer’s safety by providing immediate situational awareness to those monitoring or assisting in the emergency.
[0013] Yet another object of the present invention is to develop a device that continuously monitors the wearer's heart rate, stress levels, and other physiological parameters, and sends alerts to authorized personnel if elevated stress levels or abnormal heart rates are detected, enabling timely intervention and ensuring the wearer's health and safety during critical situations.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0020] The following description includes the preferred best mode of one embodiment of the present invention. It will be clear from this description of the invention that the invention is not limited to these illustrated embodiments but that the invention also includes a variety of modifications and embodiments thereto. Therefore, the present description should be seen as illustrative and not limiting. While the invention is susceptible to various modifications and alternative constructions, it should be understood, that there is no intention to limit the invention to the specific form disclosed, but, on the contrary, the invention is to cover all modifications, alternative constructions, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the claims.
[0021] In any embodiment described herein, the open-ended terms "comprising," "comprises,” and the like (which are synonymous with "including," "having” and "characterized by") may be replaced by the respective partially closed phrases "consisting essentially of," consists essentially of," and the like or the respective closed phrases "consisting of," "consists of, the like.
[0022] As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” designate both the singular and the plural, unless expressly stated to designate the singular only.
[0023] The present invention relates to a multi-functional self-defense device that provides comprehensive protection for the wearer, defending against physical attacks and harmful airborne gases, such as tear gas or toxic fumes, by incorporating features like real-time detection of threats, camouflage gas release, physiological monitoring, and location tracking, all of which work together to enhance the wearer's safety, concealment, and situational awareness in hazardous environments.
[0024] Referring to Figure 1, a perspective view of multi-functional self-defense device is illustrated, comprising a multi-layered wearable body 101 designed to fit around torso of a wearer via fastening straps 102 placed on left and right sides, a helmet-shaped head cover 103 with a transparent frame provided with the body 101, a pneumatic rod 104 mounted on front portion of the body 101 with secondary motorized hinges, an imaging unit 105 mounted on said body 101, a microfiltration flap 106 connected with free-end of rod 104, a head-up display panel 107 mounted on front side of head cover 103, a holographic projection unit 108 mounted on shoulder area of the body 101, a small gas cylinder 109 mounted on each corner of the body’s 101 back area with an electronic nozzle 110 via a collapsible pipe 111, an extendable transparent curved-shaped flap 112 provided with frontal portion of the head cover 103, and a fingerprint scanner 113 embedded in the body 101.
[0025] The device disclosed herein features a multi-layered, wearable body 101 designed to securely fit around the torso of a wearer using fastening straps 102 on the left and right sides, with multiple ballistic panels embedded in compartments within the body 101. Each ballistic panel consists of several layers, including coir fiber composite, synthetic fibers, Kevlar fibers, green coconut coir fibers, and rattan fibers, providing optimal protection against plastic baton penetration and fragmentation, ensuring enhanced durability, flexibility, and safety for the wearer in high-risk situations.
[0026] A helmet-shaped head cover 103, featuring a transparent frame, is integrated with the body 101 to shield the wearer's head, face, and neck, providing comprehensive protection. Multiple primary motorized hinges securely attach the head cover 103 to the wearer’s head, allowing for an adaptable and customizable fit. These hinges enable the head cover 103 to adjust to the wearer’s movements and provide a secure, comfortable fit, ensuring optimal safety and flexibility while maintaining ease of use and protection in various environments.
[0027] In order to activate functioning of the device, a wearer is required to manually switch on the device by pressing a button positioned on the body 101, wherein the button used herein is a push button. Upon pressing of the button, the circuits get closed allowing conduction of electricity that leads to activation of the device and vice versa.
[0028] Upon activation of the device by the wearer, a fingerprint scanner 113 embedded in the body 101 is activated by the microcontroller for performing authentication of the wearer. The fingerprint scanner 113 works on the principle of processing which includes two elements like enrolment and matching. In enrolment, the wearer has to put the finger on the scanner 113, so that the scanner 113 checks the fingerprints to process and generate the finger pattern and it will be stored. In matching, once the wearer places the finger then the scanner 113 will generate a pattern of the finger and sends the acquired data to an inbuilt microcontroller embedded within the body 101. The microcontroller then compares the data with a stored pre-fed data to authenticate the wearer. Thus, the fingerprint sensor authenticates and recognize the fingerprints of the wearer for performing authentication of the wearer and preventing unauthorized use of the device.
[0029] Upon successful authentication of the wearer, a MQ7 sensor embedded on the head cover 103 detects any presence of harmful airborne substances such as tear gas, methane, carbon dioxide, or nitrous oxide in the surrounding. The MQ-7 gas sensor detects harmful airborne substances such as carbon monoxide, methane, and carbon dioxide by utilizing a sensitive semiconductor material that reacts to specific gases. When exposed to harmful gases like tear gas, methane, CO₂, or nitrous oxide, the sensor’s heating element causes the gas molecules to interact with the semiconductor surface, leading to changes in the electrical resistance. These changes are measured and processed by the microcontroller to determine the presence of harmful airborne substances such as tear gas, methane, carbon dioxide, or nitrous oxide in the air.
[0030] In response to the determined presence of harmful airborne substances, a pneumatic rod 104 mounted on front portion of the body 101, with secondary motorized hinges is actuated by the microcontroller to position a microfiltration flap 106, assembled with free-end of rod 104, over wearer’s nose and mouth. The pneumatic rod 104 are powered by a pneumatic arrangement (not shown in figure) including a pneumatic cylinder, air compressor, electronic valve, cylinder and piston. The valve is an electronic valve that allows entry/exit of compressed air from the compressor. Furthermore, the valve opens and the compressed air enters inside the cylinder thereby increasing the air pressure of the cylinder. The piston is connected to the cylinder and due to the increase in the air pressure, the piston extends. For the retraction of the piston, air is released from the cylinder to the air compressor via the valve. Thus, providing the required extension/retraction of the rod 104 in order to position the microfiltration flap 106 over nose and the mouth to provide protection from inhaling harmful particles or gases.
[0031] The microcontroller synchronously actuates the secondary motorized hinges to provide movement to the flap 106 for ensuring appropriate positioning of the microfiltration flap 106 over nose and the mouth. The motorized hinge joint comprises of a pair of leaf that is screwed with the surfaces of rod 104 and the body 101. The leaf is connected with each other by means of a cylindrical member integrated with a shaft coupled with a DC (Direct Current) motor to provide required movement to the hinge. The rotation of the shaft in clockwise and anti-clockwise aids in movement of the hinge respectively. The microcontroller actuates the hinge that in turn provides movement to the rod 104 to provide movement to the flap 106 for ensuring appropriate positioning of the microfiltration flap 106 over nose and the mouth.
[0032] An extendable transparent curved-shaped flap 112 provided with frontal portion of the head cover 103 is subsequently actuated by the microcontroller to cover face of the wearer for providing a purified air source for the wearer. The extension of the extendable transparent curved-shaped flap 112 is operated by the microcontroller by employing a drawer arrangement installed within the flap 112. The drawer arrangement consists of multiple plates that are overlapped to each other with a sliding unit, wherein upon actuation of the drawer arrangement by the microcontroller, the motor in the sliding unit starts rotating a wheel coupled via a shaft in clockwise/anticlockwise direction providing a movement to the slider in the drawer arrangement to extend the flap 112 to cover face of the wearer for providing a purified air source for the wearer.
[0033] A thermal sensor integrated with an imaging unit 105 mounted on the body 101 detects proximity, number, and direction of attackers based on body 101 heat signature. The thermal sensor integrated with the imaging unit 105 detects the proximity, number, and direction of attackers by capturing the infrared radiation emitted by the body 101 heat. The sensor creates a thermal image (thermogram) of the environment, where warmer objects, such as human bodies, appear distinct from cooler surroundings. By analysing the intensity and location of heat signatures, the microcontroller determines the number of individuals and their relative positions. Advanced protocols embedded with the microcontroller allows the microcontroller to process this data to track movement and assess the direction of the attackers.
[0034] Based on the detected proximity, number, and direction of attackers, a head-up display panel 107 mounted on front side of head cover 103 is activated by the microcontroller for displaying the detected information. The head-up display panel 107 as mentioned herein is typically an (Liquid Crystal Display) screen that presents output in a visible form. The LCD screen works by using liquid crystals that align in response to an electric current, controlling the passage of light. The screen consists of several layers, including a backlight, polarizers, and electrodes. When an electric current is applied to the liquid crystals, they change their orientation, allowing or blocking light from the backlight to pass through the display's color filters, creating images. Each pixel in the display is made up of red, green, and blue sub-pixels, which can be adjusted to form a wide range of colors, enabling the LCD panel 107 to display text, images, and video for displaying the detected information, including proximity, number, and direction of the attackers.
[0035] The microcontroller subsequently activates a haptic feedback unit integrated into the body 101 for providing physical alerts to the wearer about incoming threats, with varying vibration patterns depending on threat level. The haptic feedback unit provides physical alerts to the wearer by using vibrating motors embedded into the body 101. These motors create vibrations that are felt on the skin, offering a tactile response to incoming threats. The microcontroller adjusts the vibration pattern based on the threat level: a light, steady vibration may indicate a low-level threat, while a rapid or intense vibration signals a higher-level threat providing physical alerts to the wearer about incoming threats.
[0036] The body 101 is integrated with a global positioning system (GPS) module to track real-time location coordinates of the wearer. The GPS (Global Positioning System) module is a satellite-based navigation system. The satellites present in space moving in fixed orbits transmits information about the real-time location of the wearer. The signals travel at the speed of light and are intercepted by the GPS module such that the GPS module calculates the distance of each satellite and based on the time taken by the information to arrive at the receiver. The GPS module locates four or more satellites and calculates the distance between each of them. Using this information, the GPS module finds out the current location of the wearer. Once the distance is determined, the GPS module uses a trilateration method to determine the exact position of the wearer and thus fetching the real-time location coordinates of the wearer.
[0037] The fetched real-time location coordinates of the wearer are then relayed to a computing unit accessed by authorized personnel via a communication module. The communication module as mentioned herein includes but is not limited to a Bluetooth, Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) module which is capable of establishing a wireless network between the microcontrollers for relaying the fetched real-time location coordinates of the wearer to computing unit of the authorized personnel.
[0038] Based on the fetched real-time location coordinates of the wearer, a holographic projection unit 108 mounted on shoulder area of the body 101 is actuated by the microcontroller to display a safe escape route from place of the incident. The holographic projection unit 108 works by creating and projecting holograms, which are three dimensional images formed by the interference of light waves. Firstly, the laser light from the holographic projection unit 108 is split into two beams, the object beam which interacts with the surrounding and light waves are altered based on the surrounding features and the reference beam which remains unchanged. The altered object beam and the reference beam intersect to create an interference pattern. This pattern is reordered on a photosensitive surface such as a holographic plate. The interference pattern contains information about the phase and amplitude of the light waves preserving the three-dimensional details of the surrounding during projection, a laser beam is directed onto the recorded interference pattern diffracting the laser light, reconstructing the original wave fronts from the surrounding and the reference beams. The reconstructed wave fronts create a three-dimensional image that appears to float in space to display a safe escape route from place of the incident.
[0039] In case the microcontroller via the imaging unit 105 detects presence of attackers in the surrounding, an electronic nozzle 110 connected to small gas cylinder 109 mounted on each corner of back area of the body 101 via a collapsible pipe 111 is actuated by the microcontroller to release a camouflage gas in the surrounding. The electronic nozzle 110 works by utilizing electrical energy to automize the flow solution in a controlled flow pattern by converting the pressure energy of a gas into kinetic energy, which increases the gas's velocity to get released. Upon actuation of nozzle 110 by the microcontroller, the electric motor or the pump pressurizes gas within the cylinder 109, increasing its pressure significantly. High pressure enables the gas to get released out with a high force in the surrounding, thus concealing attacker’s visibility and aiding in escape.
[0040] A Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor embedded in fabric of the body 101 monitors heart rate, stress levels, and other physiological parameters of the wearer. The Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor monitors physiological parameters by measuring changes in the reflection wavelength of light as it travels through an optical fiber with a grating structure. When the wearer moves or experiences physiological changes (like heartbeats or stress), the strain and temperature variations alter the grating's periodicity. These changes shift the reflected wavelength, which can be precisely measured. The sensor detects subtle variations in heart rate, respiration, and stress levels by analyzing these shifts, allowing the microcontroller to monitor heart rate, stress levels, and other physiological parameters of the wearer and synchronously sending an alert to the authorized personnel if elevated stress levels or abnormal heart rates are detected.
[0041] Lastly, a battery is installed within the device which is connected to the microcontroller that supplies current to all the electrically powered components that needs an amount of electric power to perform their functions and operation in an efficient manner. The battery utilized here, is preferably a dry battery which is made up of Lithium-ion material that gives the device a long-lasting as well as an efficient DC (Direct Current) current which helps every component to function properly in an efficient manner. As the device is battery operated and do not need any electrical voltage for functioning. Hence the presence of battery leads to the portability of the device i.e., wearer is able to place as well as moves the device from one place to another as per the requirements.
[0042] The present invention works best in the following manner, where the multi-layered, wearable body 101 as mentioned in the invention is designed to securely fit around the torso of the wearer using fastening straps 102 on the left and right sides. Upon activation of the device by the wearer, the MQ7 sensor detects any presence of harmful airborne substances such as tear gas, methane, carbon dioxide, or nitrous oxide in the surrounding. In response to the determined presence of harmful airborne substances, the pneumatic rod 104 with secondary motorized hinges is actuated by the microcontroller to position the microfiltration flap 106 over wearer’s nose and mouth. The microcontroller synchronously actuates the secondary motorized hinges to provide movement to the flap 106 for ensuring appropriate positioning of the microfiltration flap 106 over nose and the mouth. The extendable transparent curved-shaped flap is subsequently actuated by the microcontroller to cover face of the wearer for providing the purified air source for the wearer. The thermal sensor integrated with the imaging unit 105 detects proximity, number, and direction of attackers based on body 101 heat signature. Based on the detected proximity, number, and direction of attackers, the head-up display panel 107 is activated by the microcontroller for displaying the detected information. The microcontroller subsequently activates the haptic feedback unit for providing physical alerts to the wearer about incoming threats, with varying vibration patterns depending on threat level. The global positioning system (GPS) module tracks real-time location coordinates of the wearer. The fetched real-time location coordinates of the wearer are then relayed to the computing unit accessed by authorized personnel via the communication module. Based on the fetched real-time location coordinates of the wearer, the holographic projection unit 108 is actuated by the microcontroller to display the safe escape route from place of the incident.
[0043] In continuation, in case the microcontroller via the imaging unit 105 detects presence of attackers in the surrounding, the electronic nozzle 110 is actuated by the microcontroller to release the camouflage gas in the surrounding. The Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor monitors heart rate, stress levels, and other physiological parameters of the wearer allowing the microcontroller to monitor heart rate, stress levels, and other physiological parameters of the wearer and synchronously sending the alert to the authorized personnel if elevated stress levels or abnormal heart rates are detected.
[0044] Although the field of the invention has been described herein with limited reference to specific embodiments, this description is not meant to be construed in a limiting sense.
