  • Patent number: 11924656
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for setting RF transmit power of a wireless device includes obtaining power response data for a power detector of the wireless device, the power response data providing a relationship between power detector readings from the power detector and measured transmit power of a transmitter of the wireless device; identifying a target power detector reading value corresponding to a target transmit power based at least in part on the power response data; initializing a transmitter gain of the transmitter to an initial transmitter gain value; obtaining a power detector reading value from the power detector; determining that a difference between the power detector reading value and the target power detector reading value is greater than a tolerance margin; and adjusting a transmitter gain value of the transmitter in a direction of the difference between the power detector reading value and the target power detector reading value.

  • Patent number: 11857336
    Abstract: Arousal events can be determined for a user associated with a wearable device, such as a user wearing a wearable computing device including one or more sensors. The one or more sensors may obtain EDA information that may determine a sympathetic nervous system response of the user, which may be responsive to an arousal event or an activation. Detection of events that increase the EDA response may provide information to the user regarding arousal events and provide recommendations to the user to address the arousal events to decrease their response.

  • Patent number: 11737675
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides computer-implemented methods, systems, and devices for improved skin temperature monitoring. Accurate estimates of skin and ambient temperature are generated based on determinations and comparisons of skin and internal device temperature sensor measurements contained on or within example devices. The estimates of skin and ambient temperature measurements facilitate monitoring skin and core temperature changes, detecting physiological events of a wearer of example devices, and determining when skin temperature changes are environmentally or physiologically induced.

  • Patent number: 11705082
    Abstract: A wearable computing device includes an outer covering, a housing, an electronic display configured to display an image, and a display drive integrated circuit (DDIC) comprising a processor and a memory device. The memory device(s) includes a blanking time programmed therein based on one or more parameters of the image and/or the DDIC, which generally refers to the time period in which the DDIC receives pixel data of the image from an external controller. The memory device stores instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to perform operations, including receiving an indication to rotate the image by a certain angle, upon receipt of the indication, starting to receive a transmission of the pixel data of the image from the external controller, and completing the transmission of the pixel data of the image during the blanking time and before the DDIC displays the image on the electronic display so as to avoid a tearing effect of the image on the electronic display.

  • Patent number: 11675830
    Abstract: System, apparatuses, and methods can provide customized exercise sessions and customized videos corresponding to the exercise session. Audio clips can be dynamically selected to make custom audio content for an exercise session. The audio clips and metadata can be obtained, where the audio clips correspond to categories. The exercise session can include one or more components. A destination timeline for a component can include one or more first segments that require audio, and one or more second segments that can optionally have audio. Audio clips can be selected for the various segments, where a segment can be designated for a particular category of audio clips. Identification information for the selected audio clips can be saved and used to generate the custom audio content.

  • Patent number: 11554372
    Abstract: This present disclosure provides devices, systems, and methods for performing point-of-care analysis of a target analyte in a biological fluid via a binding assay. The present disclosure includes a cartridge for collecting the target analyte contained in a fluid sample and performing an assay. The cartridge includes an assay stack having a first separation layer, a second separation layer, and a detection membrane. The cartridge also includes a plurality of first complexes comprising a capture molecule and a magnetic bead and a plurality of second complexes comprising a detection molecule and a detection label. Further, the detection membrane includes a substrate that interacts with the detection label to elicit a quantifiable response in the presence of the target analyte. The quantifiable response corresponds to an amount of detection antibody present in the detection membrane, and the amount of detection antibody present corresponds to an amount of the target analyte present.
