EYE-TRACKING USING EMBEDDED ELECTRODES IN A WEARABLE DEVICE
A wearable device assembly is described for determining eye-tracking information of a user using generated biopotential signals on the head of the user. The eye tracking system monitors biopotential signals generated on a head of a user using electrodes that are mounted on a device that is coupled to the head of the user. The system determines eye-tracking information for the user based on the monitored biopotential signals using a machine learning model. The system performs at least one action based in part on the determined eye-tracking information.

Electrode array for monitoring of physiological parameters and devices including or utilizing same, the electrode array including an active electrode configured to provide an electrical signal and at least two inactive electrodes configured to collect the electrical signal transferred from the active electrode, wherein each of the at least two inactive electrodes are positioned at a different predetermined distance from the active electrode.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING BLOOD PRESSURE
A system for controlling blood pressure includes a wearable interface having an internal contact surface, the wearable interface configured to at least partially encircle a first portion of a first limb of a subject, a sensing module carried by the wearable interface and configured to determine at least a change in blood pressure of the first limb of the subject, and an energy application module carried by the wearable interface and configured to apply energy of two or more types to the first limb of the subject.
Planar waveguide apparatus with diffraction element(s) and system employing same
A waveguide apparatus includes a planar waveguide and at least one optical diffraction element (DOE) that provides a plurality of optical paths between an exterior and interior of the planar waveguide. A phase profile of the DOE may combine a linear diffraction grating with a circular lens, to shape a wave front and produce beams with desired focus. Waveguide apparati may be assembled to create multiple focal planes. The DOE may have a low diffraction efficiency, and planar waveguides may be transparent when viewed normally, allowing passage of light from an ambient environment (e.g., real world) useful in AR systems. Light may be returned for temporally sequentially passes through the planar waveguide. The DOE(s) may be fixed or may have dynamically adjustable characteristics. An optical coupler system may couple images to the waveguide apparatus from a projector, for instance a biaxially scanning cantilevered optical fiber tip.
