Abstract: System and techniques for an apparel compute device connection are described herein. A base for a removable apparel compute device is bonded to a garment. The base includes connector portions to interface between the apparel compute device and traces within the garment electrically. The apparel compute device is secured to the base via a magnet and oriented via a physical arrangement of the connector portions.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a number of embodiments related to a fabric having one or more embedded wires, with the computer node integrated into the fabric that has a base conductive fabric and one or more system leads coupled to the base conductive fabric to electrically couple a computer node removably seated in the computer node seat with one or more embedded wires in the fabric, where the computer node seat has a thickness or a flexibility substantially similar to the fabric and is substantially flat. In other embodiments, the computer node may include a single housing or double housing and may attach to the computer node seat such that a portion of the computer node is disposed both above and below a plane of the computer node seat.

Abstract: Devices and techniques for an e-textile power module are described. A battery housing and a battery housing seat are provided. The battery housing seat includes four concentric circles alternating between insulating and conducting materials, a first trace electrically connecting the first inner circle to e-textile wiring through the fabric, a second trace electrically connecting the third inner circle to the e-textile wiring through the fabric, and a magnet. The battery housing includes a conductive ring, an insulating layer with a lumen arranged to permit contact of a first battery terminal of a battery via the lumen and a second lumen of the conductive ring, and a conductive cap. The4 conductive cap is arranged to engage to the conductive ring to hold the battery against the insulating layer against the conductive ring and electrically connect to a second terminal of the battery when the battery is placed within the battery housing.

Abstract: Particular embodiments described herein provide for an electronic device that can be configured to determine that an unobtrusive gesture has been received on a first electronic device and send a signal to a second electronic device in response to the unobtrusive gesture. The first electronic device can also be configured to receive a signal from the second electronic device, determine an unobtrusive output in response to the signal, and generate an unobtrusive notification in response to the received signal. In an example, the first electronic device is a part of jewelry worn by a user.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods incorporate biometric testing and standards, textile standards, processor specifications and conductive fabric specifications to provide a way to efficiently design and produce technology embedded garments and/or apparel. The systems, apparatuses and methods may provide a design visualizer to retrieve specifications for conductive materials, decorative materials, sensors, design patterns and physiological models to design and produce technology embedded garments and/or apparel to monitor one or more biosignals. Using the design visualizer, the design patterns may be edited and/or refined to position the sensors to increase (e.g. maximize) performance of the sensors and/or accuracy of the sensors measurements and biosignals measurements, and reduce (e.g., minimize) the number of sensors.

Abstract: Various systems and methods for providing wearable device feedback based on detected gestures and patterns of the gestures are described herein. A system for providing feedback based on detected gestures and patterns of the gestures includes an accelerometer; a gyrometer; a magnetometer; a gesture detection circuit to: detect a gesture performed by a user of the system based on data from the accelerometer, gyrometer or magnetometer; and determine a pattern of the gesture; a processor subsystem to determine a feedback pattern and a feedback intensity based on the gesture and the pattern of the gesture; and at least one feedback element to provide feedback according to the feedback pattern and the feedback intensity. The at least one feedback element may include LED lights and/or haptic motors.

Abstract: Techniques to determine depth for a number of wearable devices, which may be worn in layers are provided. A wearable device can receive measurements from sensors to include sensors from a number of other wearable devices. Based on the sensor measurements, the wearable device can determine a depth for the wearable devices. The depth can include an indication of which wearable device is closest to a user, which wearable device is closest to an external environment, or the like.

Abstract: A mechanism is described for facilitating smart placement of devices for implicit triggering of feedbacks relating to users' physical activities according to one embodiment. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes detecting scanning, in real-time, of a body of a user during one or more physical activities being by the user, where scanning is performed by one or more sensors placed in one or more items located within proximity of the user. The method may further include receiving data from the one or more sensors, where the data includes biometric data relating to the user. The method may further include forming a feedback based on processing of the biometric data, and communicating, in real-time, the feedback using an object or one or more feedback devices.
