In one embodiment, the endpiece assembly includes an elongate body having a channel partially defined by an elongate bottom wall of the elongate body. The elongate body adapted to be attached to, or formed with, a temple of the eyeglass frame. The endpiece assembly additionally includes an intermediate member having first and second end portions and a first central portion therebetween. The first central portion and the second end portion are received in the channel and the first end portion adapted to connect to a connecting bar of the frame front of the eyeglass frame. The endpiece assembly further includes a first plurality of magnets disposed within the channel.

Eyeglasses include a front frame with a lens-holding rim having an upper rim portion and a lower rim portion which extend to surround the profile of a lens and have respective free ends facing each other in an opening area of the rim, an endpiece coupled rotatably to the lower rim portion about a first pivot axis and coupled rotatably to the upper rim portion about a second pivot axis, the first and second pivot axes being parallel to each other and the first pivot axis being laterally spaced from the second pivot axis on the side facing the rod, the endpiece being configured to rotate about the pivot axes between a closed and an open position of the rim, the endpiece and the upper rim portion cooperating mutually with each other in the closed position to hold the upper and lower rim portions therebetween.

Eyewear including an optical functional member, control electronics, and a sealed electrical connective element connecting the electronics to the optical functional member. The connective element can directly connect the electronics to the optical functional member, or can connect through an intermediate contact, e.g., a plug-and-receptacle. The connective element can be routed from the electronics, around a rimlock of the eyewear to the optical functional member. The connective element can be a conductive compressible member, such as conductive rubber. In some embodiments, the connective element can be a multiconductor cable.

A joint for coupling a side arm to a frame of a pair of glasses. The joint includes a post, a plurality of prongs, and optionally a nut. The post is configured to be secured to one of the side arm or the frame and the plurality of prongs are configured to be secured to the other of the side arm or the frame. The post includes a shaft and an enlarged head at a distal end of the shaft. The plurality of prongs define a socket configured to receive at least a portion of the enlarged head of the post and apply a compressive force against the enlarged head of the post. The nut may be configured to generate a compressive force against the plurality of prongs. The compressive force may be adjusted by threading the nut along the length of the prongs. The nut may threadably engage a base that the prongs extend from and/or the prongs.

Methods and devices for wired charging and communication with a wearable device are described. In one embodiment, a symmetrical contact interface comprises a first contact pad and a second contact pad, and particular wired circuitry is coupled to the first and second contact pad to enable charging as well as receive and transmit communications via the contact pads as part of various device states.

Systems, apparatuses, and methods are taught that provide reconfigurable components for eyewear devices. A reconfigurable component for use in an eyewear device includes an embedded electronics system. The embedded electronics system is configured for wireless communication and for processing sensor signals. The embedded electronics system is embedded into a component of the eyewear device. A plurality of sensors is embedded into one or more of the reconfigurable component and the eyewear device. The plurality is in electrical communication with the embedded electronics system. The embedded electronic system further includes a processor. The processor is configured to receive outputs from the plurality of sensors and to determine a system control parameter from an output of at least one sensor of the plurality of sensors.

Systems and methods herein describe an actuator control system for intelligent actuated temple attachments on a pair of eyeglasses. The actuator control system receives current measurements corresponding to a length of eyeglass temple attachments on a pair of eyeglasses, and generates predicted measurements for the temple attachments using a machine learning model. The actuator control system transmits the predicted measurements to pneumatic actuators coupled to the eyeglass temple attachments and determines pressure measurements corresponding to a pressure of eyeglass temples against a user of the pair of eyeglasses. Based on the pressure measurements, the actuator control system generates adjusted measurements for the temple attachments and transmits the adjusted measurements to the pneumatic actuators coupled to the eyeglass temple attachments.

A quick-release assembly of a wearable device is disclosed and includes a locking member and a mounting base provided with an insertion cavity having an opening formed on a side of the mounting base. An accommodation cavity is provided in the mounting base and spatially connected to the insertion cavity. The locking member includes a locking portion movably disposed on the mounting base along a direction connecting the accommodation cavity and the insertion cavity and an unlocking portion connected to the locking portion. The locking member has a first state and a second state relative to the mounting base. In the first state, at least a portion of the locking portion is disposed within the insertion cavity to lock a visual member entering the insertion cavity through the opening. In the second state, the locking portion is accommodated within the accommodation cavity to release the lock of the visual member.

The elongate body adapted to be attached to, or formed with, a temple of the eyeglass frame. The endpiece assembly additionally includes an intermediate member having first and second end portions and a first central portion therebetween. The first central portion and the second end portion are received in the channel and the first end portion adapted to connect to a connecting bar of the frame front of the eyeglass frame. The endpiece assembly further includes a first plurality of magnets disposed within the channel.

Provided are eyeglasses that can be supported so as to fit each of various head shapes of wearers without any gap, are extremely excellent in preventing slippage and falling during exercise, have a good fitting feeling, and do not particularly require an adjustment operation for preventing slippage and falling. The eyeglasses include a frame, end pieces attached to both end portions of the frame, and temples attached to the back ends of the end pieces so as to be swingable in the inward and outward directions, and a temple pad protrudes from the front end of the temple. The temple pad moves inward when the temple swings outward, and the temple pad moves outward when the temple swings inward.
