WEARABLE HEADS-UP DISPLAYS
There is provided a wearable heads-up display (WHUD) having a glasses frame, which may comprise a front frame and first and second temple arms each coupled to the front frame. At least a portion of the first temple arm may be foldable relative to the front frame at a first interface disposed at a first distance along the first temple arm away from the front frame. Similarly, at least a portion of the second temple arm may be foldable relative to the front frame at a second interface disposed at a second distance along the second temple arm away from the front frame. The first distance may be different than the second distance. The WHUD may also include a light engine and a display optic both mounted to the glasses frame, and used to form an image viewable by a user of the WHUD.
ULTRATHIN EYEGLASSES AND CASE
Embodiments of ultrathin eyeglasses are provided. The eyeglasses comprise a frame and temple pieces extending from the frame. The frame and temple pieces are configured to be directly connected using a bearing or a pin, without the need for a separately attached hinge piece. The temple pieces are configured to sit flat against the frame. An eyeglasses case is also provided. The case has a thin profile and is configured to be attached to a smartphone. The connection between the case and the smartphone allows relative rotation between the case and the smartphone.
Therapeutic Eyewear Sleeve
Therapeutic Eyewear patent introduces new functionality for the eyewear frame (prescription frames, sunglasses, goggles) —the delivery of CBD or other therapeutic medicine via infused pads located anywhere on the frame, primarily those parts of the frame in contact with the wearer's skin.
Eyeglass frame cushioning device
An eyeglass frame cushioning device for increasing comfort and stability of an eyeglass frame includes a pair of pads and a pair of couplers. The pads are resiliently compressible. Each coupler is coupled to an interior face of a respective pad and is configured to couple to an inner face of a respective sidearm of an eyeglass frame. The coupler is configured to selectively couple the respective pad to the respective sidearm of the eyeglass frame. The respective pad thus is configured to cushion the respective sidearm when in contact with a temple of a user. The respective pad also is configured to frictionally couple to the temple to decrease movement of the eyeglass frame relative to a head of the user, thereby reducing a need of the user to adjust the eyeglass frame.

Head-Mounted Fixing Device
A head-mounted fixing device includes a head frame, a bracket and a headband. Two side frame portions of the head frame abut against two sides of a user’s head, and a front frame portion of the head frame is located between the two side frame portions and abuts against the users' forehead. The headband is movably connected to two first adjusting members of the head frame, so the position of the front frame portion on the forehead can be adjusted by adjusting positions of the two first adjusting members on the headband. The bracket abuts against the top of the head. The headband can wrap around and abut against the back of the head. The head frame, the bracket and the headband abut against the head to restrict the head-mounted fixing device from moving relative to the head, so that the head-mounted fixing device may be worn without shaking.
EYEWEAR DEVICE WITH THERMAL VAPOR CHAMBER
An electronic eyewear device having a thermal management device including a vapor chamber in the temples. The temples may have a sheet metal portion thermally connected to heat generating electronics, wherein the vapor chamber is thermally coupled to the sheet metal along a length thereof to disperse heat generated by the electronics. The sheet metal and the vapor chamber may be encompassed by a non-thermally conducting material, such as being over molded by a silicone material, to prevent user contact with the heated sheet metal and vapor chamber. The sheet metal and the vapor chamber are generally planar and lightweight, and they are bent to bias the temples against a user's head when worn to provide preloading.

Eyewear having selectively exposable feature
Apparatuses, systems and methods for wearable devices such as eyewear are described. According to one embodiment, the wearable device includes a body, electronics, and a connector. The body is configured to hold one or more optical elements, the body being disposable between a collapsed condition and a wearable condition in which the device is wearable by a user to hold the one or more optical elements within user view. The electronics are carried by the body. The connector is configured to enable establishment of an electrical and/or electronic connection with the electronics via the connector, the connector being housed by the body such that the connector is substantially obscured from view when the body is in the wearable condition, and such that the connector is exposed for connective access when the body is in the collapsed condition.
Spectacles comprising auricular devices
Spectacles including auricular devices are described. The spectacles include a structure having a front frame for supporting respective lenses, and a pair of arms articulated to the front frame on laterally opposite sides, each of the arms extending longitudinally between a first end that is articulated to the front frame and a second, opposite end, close to which an end arm portion can make contact with the head at the ear. Each arm extends from the second end into an arm portion that is made of flexible material and bears an element for supporting an auricular device, and the arm portion can move, on account of its flexibility, between an operating position in which the support element is worn at the ear to allow the auricular device to be positioned, and a non-operating position in which the support element is removably held on the end arm portion.
