US12510332 - High-visibility ballistic safety vest
![]()
The patent describes a high-visibility ballistic safety vest equipped with multiple pockets for housing a removable ballistic panel and an energy wave sensor that detects ballistic events. The vest includes a notification system that alerts emergency services when a ballistic event is detected, powered by an integrated power supply.
Claim 1
1 . A ballistic vest system comprising: a vest comprising: one or more exterior pockets; and multiple interior pockets, wherein at least one interior pocket is configured to house a ballistic panel and at least one energy wave sensor, and wherein a front of the vest and rear of the vest contain at least one interior pocket; at least one ballistic panel, wherein the at least one ballistic panel is configured to be housed in the interior pocket of the vest, wherein the at least one ballistic panel is removable from the interior pocket of the vest, and wherein the at least one ballistic panel is constructed from a ballistic-resistant material; and a ballistic detection system comprising: the at least one energy wave sensor configured to measure an energy level generated by a ballistic event within a predetermined distance of a wearer of the ballistic vest system, wherein the at least one energy wave sensor generates an energy waveform based on the measured energy level, and wherein the at least one energy wave sensor is mounted to the ballistic panel; a notification system, wherein the notification system configured to generate a notification to an emergency service when the energy waveform measured by the at least one energy wave sensor is indicative of a ballistic event; and a power supply configured to supply power to the ballistic detection system. a vest comprising: one or more exterior pockets; and multiple interior pockets, wherein at least one interior pocket is configured to house a ballistic panel and at least one energy wave sensor, and wherein a front of the vest and rear of the vest contain at least one interior pocket; one or more exterior pockets; and multiple interior pockets, wherein at least one interior pocket is configured to house a ballistic panel and at least one energy wave sensor, and wherein a front of the vest and rear of the vest contain at least one interior pocket; wherein at least one interior pocket is configured to house a ballistic panel and at least one energy wave sensor, and wherein a front of the vest and rear of the vest contain at least one interior pocket; at least one ballistic panel, wherein the at least one ballistic panel is configured to be housed in the interior pocket of the vest, wherein the at least one ballistic panel is removable from the interior pocket of the vest, and wherein the at least one ballistic panel is constructed from a ballistic-resistant material; and wherein the at least one ballistic panel is configured to be housed in the interior pocket of the vest, wherein the at least one ballistic panel is removable from the interior pocket of the vest, and wherein the at least one ballistic panel is constructed from a ballistic-resistant material; and a ballistic detection system comprising: the at least one energy wave sensor configured to measure an energy level generated by a ballistic event within a predetermined distance of a wearer of the ballistic vest system, wherein the at least one energy wave sensor generates an energy waveform based on the measured energy level, and wherein the at least one energy wave sensor is mounted to the ballistic panel; a notification system, wherein the notification system configured to generate a notification to an emergency service when the energy waveform measured by the at least one energy wave sensor is indicative of a ballistic event; and a power supply configured to supply power to the ballistic detection system. the at least one energy wave sensor configured to measure an energy level generated by a ballistic event within a predetermined distance of a wearer of the ballistic vest system, wherein the at least one energy wave sensor generates an energy waveform based on the measured energy level, and wherein the at least one energy wave sensor is mounted to the ballistic panel; wherein the at least one energy wave sensor generates an energy waveform based on the measured energy level, and wherein the at least one energy wave sensor is mounted to the ballistic panel; a notification system, wherein the notification system configured to generate a notification to an emergency service when the energy waveform measured by the at least one energy wave sensor is indicative of a ballistic event; and wherein the notification system configured to generate a notification to an emergency service when the energy waveform measured by the at least one energy wave sensor is indicative of a ballistic event; and a power supply configured to supply power to the ballistic detection system.
