This invention relates to a device used to attach to eyewear for the purpose of providing buoyancy, securing to the head and temples, and protection from scratches.

Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a three-dimensional article, including: a step of producing the article by an additive manufacturing technology, the article including at least two parts that face, at least partially, each other or that have edges facing, at least partially, each other; and a step of finishing of the article. According to the invention, the two parts are produced together with a temporary connection that links the two parts, and the method includes, after the step of finishing, a step of unlinking the temporary connection in order to separate the two parts.

The present disclosure relates to a loudspeaker. The loudspeaker may include a loudspeaker mechanism, a fixing mechanism, and a connector. The loudspeaker mechanism may be configured to generate a vibration signal and transmit the vibration signal to the human body. The fixing mechanism may be configured to support and maintain the position of the loudspeaker mechanism. The connector may be configured to connect the loudspeaker mechanism with the fixing mechanism. The loudspeaker mechanism may at least include a first fixed position and a second fixed position. The first fixed position may be a fixed position of the loudspeaker when the loudspeaker is in a non-working state. The second fixed position may be a fixed position of the loudspeaker when the loudspeaker is in a working state. The connector may be configured to switch the loudspeaker mechanism between the first fixed position and the second fixed position.

Eyewear having monitoring capability, such as for radiation or motion, is disclosed. Radiation, such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, infrared (IR) radiation or light, can be measured by a detector. The measured radiation can then be used in providing radiation-related information to a user of the eyewear. Motion can be measure by a detector, and the measured motion can be used to determine whether the eyewear is being worn.

Techniques for providing wearable electronic devices with electrical components are disclosed. The electrical components can provide electrical technology to eyewear to facilitate audio support including enhanced hearing. The electrical components can operate independently or together with other electrical components provided elsewhere. The wearable electronic devices with electronic components can, for example, provide audio output, audio enhancements, or event-related audio content.

A method of manufacturing a button-enabled housing assembly includes preforming a composite button component or insert having an elastically flexible button membrane that is mounted on a rigid frame, and thereafter molding a housing over the button insert. The composite button insert is formed in a co-molding operation and can include a rigid island in the flexible button membrane for supporting a cosmetic keycap.

Eyewear including a frame, a projector supported by the frame, and a lens supported by the frame. The lens has a first surface facing an eye of the user and a second surface facing away from the eye of the user when the frame is worn. The lens also includes a waveguide defined by the first and second surfaces to receive light from the projector. An input light coupler and an output light coupler are on the first surface of the lens and at least one reflector is positioned on a second surface of the lens to redirect light received from the input coupler and/or the output coupler to redirect light having an angle of incidence with respect to the second surface of the lens that would result in that portion of the light exiting the waveguide through the second surface in the absence of the at least one reflector.

A set of augmented reality (AR) or virtual reality (VR) glasses are disclosed. The glasses comprise a fiber reinforced structure. The fiber reinforced structure includes a continuous fiber component. The fiber reinforced structure also includes a thermoplastic material injection molded over the continuous fiber component, wherein the thermoplastic material surrounds the continuous fiber component. The glasses also comprise electronics that are coupled to the fiber reinforced structure, wherein the electronics are configured to facilitate presentment of imagery onto a lens of the glasses.

A personal sanitizing device includes an eyewear frame and one or more UV-C sources attached to a lower edge of the eyewear frame for directing UV-C energy in a downward direction from the eyewear frame. The one or more UV-C sources are configured for sanitizing air in proximity of a mouth and/or a nose of a wearer of the personal sanitizing device. The personal sanitizing device also includes a battery configured for powering the one or more UV-C sources.

The present invention relates to a wearable apparatus which can display content from a content provider to the user's view comprising: a head-mountable frame wearable by a user; a display for projecting an image; communication means for communicative association with said content provider; and reflective means for reflecting said content from said display to the user's view.
