Abstract: Disclosed herein are wrist-worn devices with a camera which enable a person to record images of food or environmental scenes without contorting their arm. Devices can allow a camera to be moved independently from the rest of the device. A camera can be on a flip-up display with features which decrease the chances of the display snagging on an object and breaking off. A camera can be on the rim of an enclosure held on the dorsal side of a wrist with a bifurcating band, so that the band does not block the camera's view.

Abstract: This invention is an article of clothing with electromyographic (EMG) sensors which measures body motion and/or muscle activity. This clothing can be a short-sleeve shirt or a pair of shorts, wherein the electromyographic (EMG) sensors are on the cuffs. The electromyographic (EMG) sensors can be modular; they can be removably attached to different locations in order to create a customized article of electromyographic clothing which optimally measures the muscle activity of a particular person or muscle activity during a particular sport. This clothing can also include bending-based motion sensors.

The device can further comprise a split ring resonator located between the energy emitter/transmitter and the energy receiver.

Abstract: A biometric wearable device (e.g. finger ring or smart watch) has optical sensors to measure body oxygenation level, hydration level, glucose level, heart rate, heart rate variability, and/or blood pressure. Light from light emitters is transmitted through body tissue and changes in the light are analyzed. In an example, the device can include body-facing protrusions where the light emitters and/or the light receivers are located.

Abstract: In an example, a compact, dual-display optical structure for each eye of augmented reality eyewear can include: a first image display on a first side of a person's eye; a second image display on a second side of the eye; a first waveguide which reflects light rays from the first image display multiple times before those light rays are directed toward the eye; and a second waveguide which reflects light rays from the second image display multiple times before those light rays are directed toward the eye.

Abstract: This invention is an intrasaccular aneurysm occlusion device with an expandable mesh which is inserted and expanded within an aneurysm sac. The expandable mesh can be steered in a selected direction and/or expanded in a radially-asymmetric manner by moving a joint, sliding catheter sections, pulling or pushing wires, detaching constraints, or filling chambers in the mesh with embolic material. There can be a plurality of non-central openings with remotely-controllable valves in the expandable mesh through which embolic material is inserted into the aneurysm sac.

Abstract: A smart bra with optical sensors for detecting, imaging, and/or evaluating abnormal breast tissue includes a cup with a proximal outer ring, expandable chambers inside the proximal outer ring, and light emitters and light receivers between the expandable chambers and a person's breast. Changes in light emitted from the light emitters and received by the light receivers which are caused by transmission of the light through breast tissue can be analyzed to detect, image, and evaluate abnormal breast tissue.

Abstract: This invention is a band, strap, or sleeve with neuromuscular activity (e.g. EMG) sensors which is worn on a person's wrist and/or forearm to track the motion of the person's arm, wrist, and fingers and recognize gestures. It can serve as a human-to-computer communication interface. The ventral portion of the device can be wider than the dorsal portion of the device. Also, the device can further comprise: length-adjusting mechanisms at both ends of the band, strap, or sleeve; and tracks or channels on the band, strap, or sleeve along which sensors can slide.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are optical structures for augmented reality eyewear with a dynamic waveguide, wherein the dynamic waveguide has an array of individually-movable reflective components or an array of adjustable-reflectivity components. These optical structures enable a person to see a bright, opaque virtual object in a portion of their field of view and also see their environment clearly in the rest of their field of view.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a pair of EEG glasses or other electroencephalographic eyewear comprising an eyewear frame with a frontpiece and two sidepieces (e.g. temples), wherein there is an arcuate arm which extends out from the sidepiece toward the person's head and an electrode on the arcuate protrusion. The electrode collects data concerning the person's brain activity.

Abstract: A wearable ring or band can have spectroscopic sensors on its inner circumference. The ring or band can change: the angles at which light beams from sensors are transmitted; the radial locations of sensors around the inner circumference; and/or the distances between sensors and a person's body. The ring or band can also have an expandable and/or compressible chamber or layer on its inner circumference. The ring or band can also have a flexible, elastic, and/or articulated segment as part of its circumference.

Abstract: A wearable device or system for monitoring food consumption can include a wrist-worn or finger-worn device which is worn by a person, a motion sensor on the wrist-worn or finger-worn device, eyewear which is worn by the person, and a camera on the eyewear which is activated to record food images when analysis of data from the motion sensor detects that the person is eating. This device can be used alone or as part of a closed-loop glucose level management system.

It also includes a light emitter, wherein the virtual-object-display component reflects and/or refracts light from the light emitter toward the person's eye when the virtual-object-display component is in its second configuration.

Abstract: This invention is augmented reality eyewear which can transition between a real world viewing mode, a virtual reality viewing mode, and an augmented reality viewing mode.

This eyewear includes an eyewear frame, an optical display, a lens, a plurality of selectively-movable (pivoting or rotating) micromirrors, and an array of electroconductive pathways.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an article of smart clothing which automatically recognizes body configuration and motion. This smart clothing includes inertial motion units which are distal relative to selected joints and also sets of strain sensors which span those joints. The type of energy transmitted through a strain sensor can be electrical energy or light energy. Combined multivariate analysis of data from both inertial motion units and strain sensors provides more accurate recognition of body configuration and motion than data from either alone.
