  • Patent number: 11765508
    Abstract: A wearable electronic device includes an anterior pendant and a posterior pendant. A first neck strap couples a first side of the anterior pendant to the posterior pendant, while a second neck strap couples a second side of the anterior pendant to the posterior pendant. The posterior pendant includes a first single channel posterior audio output delivering a left channel audio signal through a first port and a second single channel posterior audio output delivering a right channel audio signal from a second port.

  • Publication number: 20230288957
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a first device housing and a second device housing that are slidable relative to each other. A flexible display spans a major surface of the electronic device. A strap can be attached to the electronic device so as to span a second major surface of the electronic device, where sliding the first device housing toward the second device housing changes the perimeter of an arm insertion aperture defined by the strap and device housings. A deformable device housing arm can extend between the device housing(s) and the strap and can wrap around a user's arm. The first device housing and second device housing can be manufactured from a flexible material to wrap around an arm allowing a first coupler coupled to the first device housing to attach to a second coupler coupled to the second device housing.
