Claims20
A neck brace comprising:
- one or more support segments,
- a computing device;
- and
- a series of connected coils integrated on outer and inner surfaces of the one or more supportive segments,
- wherein a tension level of the series of connected coils adjusts based on an output from the computing device.

A system for protecting the head or neck from injury, the system comprising:
- a neck brace comprising one or more support segments;
- a series of connected coils integrated on outer and inner surfaces of the supportive segment;
- a computing device comprising:
- a sensors;
- a memory;
- a processor communicatively coupled to the memory;
- wherein the memory stores a set of instructions, which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- receive data from the sensor;
- determine an ideal coil tension setting for a user based on the sensor data using a Force machine learning model;
- provide a result of ideal coil tension settings;
- compare the result of the ideal coil tension settings with real-time sensor data;
- determine if a tension level of coils needs to be adjusted;
- and
- output a signal to adjust the tension level of the series of connected coils.
