Abstract

A glove having a display device is described. The glove comprises a glove; a display device connected with the glove, the display device comprising: a controller; a display coupled with the controller; and an input/output device coupled with the controller and arranged to be coupled with a wireless camera; and wherein the controller is arranged to receive an image from the I/O device and cause the display to display the received image. In alternate embodiments, the glove is a wristband or other user-wearable garment. In still further alternate embodiments, the display device may be carried directly by a user without use of a garment. In alternate embodiments, the glove is a wristband or other user-wearable garment. In still further alternate embodiments, the display device may be carried directly by a user without use of a garment. The display device (or a matched pair of display devices) with or without the glove or wrist-band (or a matched pair of gloves or pair of wrist-bands) may also be an integral part of a vehicular system.

Claims

1. A glove having a display device, comprising:

a glove;

a display device mounted on the glove, the display device comprising;

a controller;

a display coupled with the controller; and

an input/output (I/O) device coupled with the controller and arranged to be coupled with a wireless camera; and

wherein the controller is arranged to receive an image from the I/O device and cause the display to display the received image.

2. The glove as claimed in claim 1, wherein the controller is arranged to display the received image overlaid with the results of an augmented-reality based image processing function.

3. The glove as claimed in claim 1, wherein the controller is arranged to display the received image overlaid with the results of an augmented-reality based image processing function, in the form of text, image, animations, video, sound, tickers or a combination thereof.

4. The glove as claimed in claim 1, wherein the display device is positioned on a sleeve portion of the glove adjacent an opening of the glove.

5. The glove as claimed in claim 1, wherein the I/O device is arranged to communicate wirelessly using a protocol selected from the group comprising at least one of Bluetooth or WiFi.

6. The glove as claimed in claim 1, wherein the controller is arranged to receive user commands via the glove and to cause transmission of the commands via the I/O device.

7. The glove as claimed in claim 4, wherein the controller is arranged to receive user commands via at least one of user manipulation of the display or user gestures.

8. The glove as claimed in claim 1, the display device further comprising an antenna coupled with the controller.

9. The glove as claimed in claim 1, wherein the I/O device comprises an antenna.

10. A glove system comprising:

a glove having a display device, the glove comprising;

a glove;

a display device connected with the glove, the display device comprising;

a controller;

a display coupled with the controller; and

an input/output (I/O) device coupled with the controller and arranged to be coupled with a camera; and

wherein the controller is arranged to receive an image from the I/O device and cause the display to display the received image.

11. The glove as claimed in claim 10, wherein the camera is coupled with the glove system.

12. The glove as claimed in claim 10, wherein the camera is a wireless camera.

13. The glove as claimed in claim 10, wherein the camera is arranged to communicate wirelessly with the I/O device.

14. The glove as claimed in claim 10, the display device further comprising an antenna coupled with the controller.

15. The glove as claimed in claim 10, wherein the I/O device comprises an antenna.

16. The glove as claimed in claim 10 wherein the glove is a wrist-band.

17. The glove as claimed in claim 10, wherein the display is mountable to a flexible material.

18. A vehicular-based system comprising one or more wireless cameras arranged to communicate with one or more wireless display-based garments, the garment comprising a display device connected with the garment, the display device comprising:

a controller;

a display coupled with the controller;

an input/output (I/O) device coupled with the controller and arranged to be coupled with at least one of the one or more wireless cameras; and

wherein the controller is arranged to cause the display to display a received image from the I/O device.

19. The system as claimed in claim 18 wherein the garment comprises at least one of a glove or a wristband.

20. The system as claimed in claim 18, wherein at least one of the wireless cameras is coupled with the display device.

21. The system as claimed in claim 18, wherein the vehicular-based system comprises two garments, each garment in the form of a glove.
