  • Publication number: 20230263279
    Abstract: System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to performing an interactive activity using a band. In one embodiment, a method includes touching a subset of inputs, associated with a touch sensor of a first band, relating to an interactive activity with a second band. The method may also include communicating, by the first band, first data to a first mobile device, the first data including information that identifies completion of the interactive activity and indicates a time that the subset are selectively touched. The method may also include the first band triggering the first mobile device to communicate second data to a second mobile device to replicate the interactive activity.

  • Patent number: 11395531
    Abstract: System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to performing an activity by a band. In one embodiment, a method includes touching a subset of virtual inputs, on a surface sensitive to touch associated with a first band, for an activity with a second band. The method may also include communicating, by the first band, first data to a first mobile device. The first data may include information that identifies completion of the activity and indicates a time period that the subset are touched. The method may also include communicating, by the first mobile device, second data to a second mobile device to replicate the activity.

  • Patent number: 11039669
    Abstract: A first bracelet having physical buttons may be touched in a defined sequence and for a length of time to complete a shared activity across a group of bracelets. The first bracelet may communicate a signal that includes information identifying completion of the shared activity. A second bracelet may receive a signal that programs physical buttons such that they may be touched for the length of time to complete the shared activity by repetition of the defined sequence.
