Xian-Jie Yang

A headwear assembly is provided that measures physiological changes, e.g., oxygen saturation, pulse, blood pressure, and body temperature of a user during physical exercise, to include athletic activities and other situations. The headwear assembly can provide integrated functionality with an external device such as a smart phone. The headwear assembly can be embodied in various configurations, e.g., stand-alone headband, cap, visor, or a helmet.

Electronic headwear

An electronic helmet is provided that includes a helmet body and an integrated electronic system disposed in the helmet body, providing a number of convenient functions. The helmet body has a hard outer shell and a hard inner shell mounted to the outer shell such that a cavity is defined between the outer and the inner shells. The inner shell can include suitable material to provide the wearer effective RF shielding from the electronic system, such as, nickel-plated carbon fiber to provide RF shielding. The helmet body further includes a shock-absorbent structure disposed between the inner shell and the head of a wearer.

Electronic helmet

The invention provides compositions and methods for ameliorating defects in myosin VIIa (MYO7A) expression and/or function, including providing vectors for myosin VIIa expression and formulations comprising them, and methods of using them, for treating human retinitis pigmentosa (or retinal degeneration), and blindness and deafness such as that found in Usher syndrome. The invention provides in vivo gene therapy for ameliorating defects in myosin VIIa (MYO7A) expression and/or function, including compositions and methods for gene transfer of the human myosin VIIa (MYO7A) gene (the MYO7A gene.
