  • Publication number: 20230091991
    Abstract: A wearable electronic device may include a housing defining a band slot and a protrusion further defining a camera cavity. A digital camera assembly may be positioned in the camera cavity defined by the protrusion and/or housing. Walls of the protrusion may at least partially define the band slot and the protrusion may further at least partially extend over the band slot. The digital camera assembly may be used to capture light used to generate images and/or videos and may be communicatively coupled to a battery and other electronic components positioned within an internal cavity of the wearable electronic device. A band configured to couple with the band slot to secure the wearable electronic device around a body part of a user may be provided and may be removeable with respect to the band slot.
