  • Patent number: 12248630
    Abstract: A wearable computing device with bio-signal sensors and a feedback module provides an interactive mediated reality (“VR”) environment for a user. The bio-signal sensors receive bio-signal data (for example, brainwaves) from the user and include bio-signal sensors embedded in a display isolator, having a deformable surface, and having an electrode extendable to contact the user's skin. The wearable computing device further includes a processor to: present content in the VR environment via the feedback module; receive bio-signal data of the user from the bio-signal sensor; process the bio-signal data to determine user states of the user, including brain states, using a user profile; modify a parameter of the content in the VR environment in response to the user states of the user. The user receives feedback indicating the modification of the content via the feedback module.

  • Patent number: 12186074
    Abstract: There is provided a wearable system for determining at least one movement property. The wearable system includes a head-mounted device including at least one movement sensor; a processor connected to the head-mounted device; and a display connected to the processor. The processor includes a medium having instructions stored thereon that when executed cause the processor to: obtain sensor data from the at least one movement sensor; determine at least one movement property based on the obtained sensor data; and display the at least one movement property on the display. There is also provided a method for displaying the at least one movement property.
