Optical Sensor Subsystem Adjacent a Cover of an Electronic Device Housing

A watch having a cover is described. An optical sensor subsystem is attached adjacent to or directly on an interior surface of the cover. In some cases, the optical sensor subsystem includes a substrate to which a light emitter and a light receiver are attached. The light receiver is configured to receive light emitted by the light emitter and reflected from the skin of a person that wears the watch. In some cases, the light emitter and light receiver are separated by a light-blocking wall that abuts the interior surface of the cover. In some cases, a light filter is attached adjacent or directly on the interior surface of the cover, between the cover and the light receiver.

ELECTRONIC TIMEPIECE, CONTROL METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY RECORDING MEDIUM

An electronic timepiece includes a storage that stores specific-region DST application rule information and local time information that includes, in association with each other, DST application rules for each region and standard-wave transmitting station information indicating each station transmitting standard waves receivable in the region; a processor that controls clock time to be kept by a clock circuit and displays time to be displayed on a display; and a standard wave receiver that receives standard waves and obtains time information. The processor calibrates the clock time based on the time information indicated by the standard waves received by the standard wave receiver, and controls the display time based on whether the specific-region DST application rule information and the DST application rule information associated with the standard-wave transmitting station information indicating a station transmitting the received standard waves satisfy a predetermined condition.

PORTABLE ELECTRONIC TIMEPIECE, DISPLAY METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

A portable electronic timepiece includes a display unit which displays an image, and a processor which is operative to display, on the display unit, route information on a traveling route of a user, switch a scale of the route information displayed on the display unit, and in a case where a given point set in association with the route information of a predetermined scale cannot be displayed within a display range of the display unit, change a display mode of the display unit to a display mode that is different from the display mode of displaying the route information.

INDICATORS FOR WEARABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICES

A wearable electronic device includes a housing and a band attached to the housing. The band has an indicator with a variably and/or progressively illuminable portion. The indicator of the band conveys to a user an analog representation of the completion progress of an activity or task tracked by wearable electronic device. The wearable electronic device also includes a processing unit within the housing, and a sensor operatively coupled to the processing unit. In some cases, the sensor is a motion sensor such as an accelerometer or a gyroscope. In other examples, the sensor is a health sensor or a biometric sensor. Sensor data is used to update the indicator.
