  • Patent number: 11813066
    Abstract: A wearable module assembly for an optical measurement system includes a first wearable module, a second wearable module, and a connector. The first and second wearable modules each include a light source configured to emit a light pulse toward a target within a body of a user, a housing that houses the light source and the plurality of detectors and includes a substantially hexagonal surface that faces a surface of the body of the user when the wearable module assembly is worn by the user, and a plurality of detectors each positioned at a fixed distance from the first light source and each configured to detect a set of photons included in the light pulse after the set of photons are scattered by the target. The connector directly connects the first wearable module and the second wearable module at mutually-facing side surfaces of the respective housings.

  • Publication number: 20210259618
    Abstract: An optical measurement system includes a wearable module assembly configured to be worn on a body of a user. The wearable module assembly includes a plurality of wearable modules and a connecting assembly. Each wearable module includes a light source configured to emit a light pulse toward a target within the body of the user and a plurality of detectors configured to receive photons included in the light pulse after the photons are scattered by the target. The connecting assembly physically and flexibly connects the plurality of wearable modules such that the wearable module assembly is conformable to a three-dimensional (3D) surface of the body of the user when the wearable module assembly is worn on the body of the user.
