Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for wearable heads-up displays (WHUD) are described. A WHUD includes a front frame with two openings each with one recess which extends along at least a portion of the periphery of the openings, two arms including frame portions and temple portions, two lenses, a projector to generate light, and a holographic optical element (HOE) carried by a lens to redirect light to an eye of a user. Frame portions insert into the recesses and are held in place when the lenses are inserted into the recesses, wherein when the WHUD is assembled the projector and HOE are positioned correctly to create a display for the user. The assembled WHUD is inflexible where the front frame and arms are attached such that when worn the projector maintains a fixed position relative to the HOE and the display remains undistorted and visible to the user.

Abstract: An articulated temple includes a temple arm, a temple end piece, and a hinge having a first hinge leaf coupled to the temple arm and a second hinge leaf coupled to the temple end piece. A pivot joint having a pivot axis is formed between the first and second hinge leaves. Each of the temple arm and temple end piece has a top curved edge. The top curved edges are concentric about the pivot axis provided by the hinge to enable one of the curved edges to move relative to the other curved edge along a portion of a circular path when the temple end piece is pivoted relative to the temple arm about the pivot axis. An eyewear including the articulated temple is disclosed.

Abstract: Systems, articles, and methods for elastic electrical cables are described. An elastic electrical cable includes a molded band of elastomer with a length that follows a tortuous path including a number of semi-rigidly set changes in direction. The elastomer band is formed by an overmolding process to enclose or at least partially contain a flexible printed circuit board, with various access points provided to electrically couple to/from the flexible printed circuit board. An annular wearable electric device employing at least one such elastic electrical cable as an adaptive coupler that simultaneously provides both electrically conductive coupling and adaptive physical coupling is described. Methods of preparing/manufacturing such elastic electrical cables are also described.

Abstract: Wearable electronic devices that provide adaptive physical coupling between electrically coupled components are described. Adaptive physical coupling advantageously accommodates different user sizes, forms, and movements and enhances the overall ergonomics of a wearable electronic device. Adaptive physical coupling also introduces stresses and strains on electrical pathways between the electrically coupled components. Accordingly, the wearable electronic devices include strain mitigation systems that mitigate physical strains on the electrical pathways between electrically coupled components. An exemplary strain mitigation system includes a guide structure that is pivotally coupled to a first substantially rigid structure of the wearable electronic device and slideably coupled to a second substantially rigid structure of the wearable electronic device. The guide structure provides a surface/channel over/through which electrical pathways extend between electrically coupled components.

Abstract: A securing device attached to an earphone that has an earbud or in-ear structure that sits in or within the vicinity of the concha cavity of the ear is disclosed. The securing device reduces the risk of dislodgement of the earphone from a wearer's ear, and also can position the earphone for optimum comfort and sound delivery to the ear canal. The invention further relates to a clip that detachably couples to earbud-style earphones for a universal fit.
