Collar Computer Patent

Wearable Computer specialist, Xybernaut, has patented a "WEARABLE COMPUTER SYSTEM INTEGRATED WITH A GARMENT COLLAR".

Computer components --a display, monitor, a microphone or audio headset-- can be placed in a collar the user wears around the neck or can be moved, for example, near the face. When the components are not in use, they can be retracted back inside the collar and out of the way and/or protected by the collar.
