Patent ID: 10864973

Abstract:
A self-inflating personal flotation device (“SIPFD”) configured to be worn by a wearer and aid the wearer automatically. The SIPFD may communicate with a global communication network and pressurized gas cartridge assembly based on a triggering event. The SIPFD may have a wearable data transmitter of a heartbeat device; a water depth device; and a geolocation device. The SIPFD may have a neck inflation device and a torso inflation device both connected to the pressurized gas cartridge assembly to enable the pressurized gas cartridge to inflate the neck and torso inflation devices when prompted. The prompt may be automatic or on request and be performed using an actuator mechanically communicating with the pressurized gas cartridge assembly to: (i) inflate the neck and torso inflation devices; and (ii) deflate the neck and torso inflation devices associated with a wearer.
