Abstract: Biometric information about a person may be collected and analyzed to gain insight into the person's physical and/or emotional conditions. The collection and analysis may be performed using a uniquely designed sensing device that includes multiple sets of sensors configured to collect EEG, EOG, EMG, EDA, and/or PPG signals from the person's head and/or facial areas. The sensing device may include a multi-layered facepad and may be coupled to a VR/AR headset and/or a scalp engagement apparatus to monitor the person's physiological and/or neural reactions to audio/visual stimuli.

Abstract: A multi-layer headgear system may comprise one or more of a head-mounted display adapter plate, a headgear frame, a sensor-engagement assembly, and/or other components. A first side of the head-mounted display adapter plate may be configured to be attached to a head-mounted display. A second side of the head-mounted display adapter plate may be configured to be attached to a first side of the headgear frame. A first side of the sensor-engagement assembly may be configured to be attached to a second side of the headgear frame. The sensor-engagement assembly may be configured to position one or more sensors with respect to a face.

Abstract: An ear apparatus may comprise one or more of a housing, an electrode, a biometric sensor, a speaker driver, and/or other components. The housing of the ear apparatus may be configured to be attached to an ear. The electrode may be carried by the housing. The electrode may be configured to measure an electrical signal from the ear. The electrical signal may include a reference signal, a ground signal, or a bias signal. The biometric sensor may be carried by the housing. The biometric sensor may be configured to measure one or more biometric characteristics from the ear. The speaker driver may be carried by the housing. The speaker driver may be configured to produce sound.
