Modular light assembly for a wearable device
12093088 · 2024-09-17 · ·

A modular light assembly is designed for integration with wearable devices. For example, the modular light assembly can connect with a wearable device, such as a smartwatch, including both a device housing and a band of the wearable device. Additionally, the modular light assembly can receive communication from the wearable device through various means, including inductive energy transfer. As a result, the modular light assembly can receive communication from the wearable device to activate (turn on) or deactivate (turn off) one or more light sources of the modular light assembly. Additionally, or alternatively, the modular light assembly device may include a button coupled to a switch that can activate or deactivate the light source(s).

Computer driven external digital crown for smartwatch

An external digital crown for a smartwatch can be implemented using a computer. A smartwatch having a display can receive an electronic cue from a digital crown. The electronic cue can related to a tactile event on the digital crown from a user. The digital crown can be positioned contiguously with the watch. The electronic cue can be analyzed to relate the tactile event to a movement of an indicator on the display for a selection on the display, and a selection can be initiated on the display based on the analysis of the electronic cue.

A portable electronic device may have an electronic device strap. The strap may include inner and outer fabric layers and optional intermediate fabric layers. The inner fabric layer may have strands of material that are characterized by a larger denier per filament value than the outer fabric layer to help draw moisture away from the body of a user. The fabric layers may have stretchable warp fibers that allow the strap to be stretched. Weft fibers at the bottom of grooves that span the width of the strap may be provided with different colors than other weft strands. When the strap is stretched, the visibility of the weft fibers at the bottoms of the grooves may increase. A hook-and-loop fastener may be used to close the strap. Loops for the fastener may be formed from warp strands and may have multiple sizes.
