Abstract

A garment with prepositioned, definite sensory stimulating devices attached. These sensory stimulating devices include, but are not limited to, electrical stimulation, audio and physical stimulation such as localised force generation, compression, constriction, vibration, and surround sound. Predetermined and defined actuators allow the wearer to receive tissue, nerve and / or muscle stimulation and / or contraction so that the stimulation is precise as determined by its ability to conform to the scientific methodology of repeatability, reproducibility and reliability; this being due to consistency of actuator positioning in one or multiple locals on the human body. A personal surround sound can also be integrated to the garment to ensure the wearer is always in the optimal position relative the speakers. These actuators can be force generators within the garment for the wearer to feel impact or apparatus or electrodes included in the garment to locally constrict and increase pressure on the wearer.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments disclosed herein relate to wearable devices, systems, methods and architectures for sensory stimulation and manipulation and physiological data acquisition. Devices, systems, methods and architectures can be used to stimulate and manipulate sensory and physiological assessments for entertainment, medicine, training and education, simulation, virtual reality, research, augmented reality, enhanced perception, and the like. Background technique [0002] electrical stimulation [0003] Physiological nerve muscle stimulation (NMES) (also known as energized muscle stimulation, functional muscle stimulation, and other terms), electrical muscle stimulation (EMS), transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), microcurrent stimulation (MC / FSM), Interferential Stimulation (IFS), Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) and others are techniques with many different uses. Examples include, but are not limited to, medicine and therapy, physical t...
