Publication number: 20240281235Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for temporarily enabling use of an operation for access at a wrist-wearable device (e.g., a smart watch). A method includes installing, on a wrist-wearable device worn by a user, data to enable use of an operation on the wrist-wearable device only while an operation-use precondition is present, where the operation-use precondition is specifically associated with the operation. The method further includes, while the operation-use precondition is present, enabling use of the operation on the wrist-wearable device. And the method further includes, in accordance with determining that the operation-use precondition is no longer present, removing at least some of the data from the wrist-wearable device to make the operation unavailable on the wrist-wearable device.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2024Publication date: August 22, 2024Inventors: Willy Huang, Sabrina Ylan Vogeley, Yuxiao Tan, Nicolas Ramirez

Publication number: 20240201820Abstract: An example method of adjusting a detachable display capsule of a wrist-wearable device to operationally complement a wearable-structure attachment is disclosed. The method includes, while a display capsule is configured to use a default set of display characteristics for operating-system or application-level user interfaces, receiving identifying information for a respective wearable structure, the display capsule being configured to detachably couple to one of a plurality of wearable structures to form a wrist-wearable device. In accordance with a determination that the display capsule should be adjusted based on the identifying information, the method further includes adjusting the display capsule (i) to cease using the first set of display characteristics and (ii) to instead use a customized set of display characteristics associated with the respective wearable structure.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2023Publication date: June 20, 2024Inventors: Willy Huang, Nicolas Ramirez, Yuxiao Tan, Tanner Wirig Rhodes

Publication number: 20240004222Abstract: A goggle may include a goggle frame and a lens assembly that may be removably coupled by magnetic materials and a latch mechanism. The latch mechanism may couple the goggle frame to the lens assembly by mechanically engaging latch components. The latch mechanism may couple the goggle frame to the lens assembly by magnetically coupling latch components. Latch components may be included with the lens assembly and the goggle frame. The goggle frame may include an elastomer face gasket. The goggle frame may include outriggers fixedly coupled to the face gasket. The lens assembly may include an elastomer lens frame.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2023Publication date: January 4, 2024Applicant: Smith Sport Optics, Inc.Inventors: Will McNeal, Hans Lindauer, Mike Aaskov, John Ohran, Eric Thorsell, Matt Capozzi, Nicolas Ramirez, Scott Layton

Publication number: 20230263984Abstract: Methods and apparatus for automated detection of an airway device coupled to an automatic rescue breathing unit (ARBU) are disclosed. The automatic detection apparatus includes a keying system that utilizes color adapters coupled to specific airway devices to indicate to a controller that the airway device is a particular size and has a particular airway protection classification (e.g., protected or unprotected). The controller may then determine the proper rescue breath rate and volume (e.g., tidal volume) based on knowing the size and classification of the airway device. In some instances, the controller may also receive information on chest compressions applied to the patient. Automatic detection of the size and classification of the airway device, along with chest compressions, may improve the process of providing automated rescue breaths to a patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2022Publication date: August 24, 2023Inventors: Daniel A. McCarthy, Nicolas Ramirez, Alvin Hsieh, Anjalin Tomy, Randon Johnson, Riyad Ali, Alton Gerald Spears

Publication number: 20210236338Abstract: A goggle may include a goggle frame, a lens assembly magnetically coupled to the goggle frame, and first and second retention features securing the lens assembly to the goggle frame at first and second locations, respectively, to resist decoupling of the lens assembly from the goggle frame. The lens assembly may be removable from the goggle frame by actuating only one of the first retention feature or the second retention feature. A method of removing a lens assembly from a goggle frame may include actuating a first latch securing the lens assembly to the goggle frame; after actuating the first latch, pivoting the lens assembly away from the goggle frame about a second latch securing the lens assembly to the goggle frame; and after pivoting the lens assembly, laterally translating the lens assembly away from the second latch without actuating the second latch.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2021Publication date: August 5, 2021Applicant: Smith Sport Optics, Inc.Inventors: Keith Langenwalter, Eric Thorsell, John Ohran, Will McNeal, Nicolas Ramirez, Matt Capozzi
