  • Patent number: 11450297
    Abstract: An electronic device such as a head-mounted device may have a display that is viewable by a user from eye boxes. The electronic device may have a gaze tracking system that monitors a user's eyes in the eye boxes to gather gaze direction information. The display may have a central portion and a peripheral portion. The peripheral portion may have a lower resolution than the central portion and may be used in displaying content that is viewable in a user's peripheral vision. During operation, control circuitry in the electronic device may adjust peripheral content on the peripheral portion to correct for parallax-induced mismatch between the peripheral content and central content on the central portion of the display. The control circuitry may also depower peripheral pixels that are determined to be unviewable based on the gaze direction. Diffusers may be used to hide seams between the central and peripheral display portions.

  • Publication number: 20150273146
    Abstract: A durable device is disclosed. This device allows concurrent measurement of an analyte such as glucose, and delivery of a glucose-active drug such as insulin. In order to carry out both functions, only one tubular structure is necessary. In one embodiment of the invention, wires or rings of platinum, gold, or carbon which serve as indicating electrodes are circumferentially disposed around a tubular reference electrode. In an embodiment, the reference electrode is made up of a hollow silver or silver-coated tube. The hollow characteristic is necessary in order to allow concurrent delivery of insulin or other drug through the lumen. In order to optimize sensor accuracy, there are multiple individually-addressable indicating electrodes circumferentially disposed around the shaft.
