The present disclosure relates to sensor systems for electronic ophthalmic devices. In certain embodiments, the sensor systems may comprise a sensor such as an adjustable resistor configured in series with an eye of a user of the electronic ophthalmic device. The sensor systems may comprise a gain stage configured to amplify a signal indicative of a difference between a voltage drop across the eye and the adjustable resistor. The sensor systems may comprise an integrator configured to integrate the amplified signal. A resistance value of the adjustable resistor is configured to cancel a DC component of a resistance of the eye when an electrical current is caused to flow through the eye and the adjustable resistor. As such, the configured resistance value of the adjustable resistor is indicative of an impedance of the eye.

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.

An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device comprises: a biological signal input unit for receiving the input of a biological signal detected through an electrode; and a processor which determines, based on a usage context of the electronic device, a biological signal to be inputted, sets up, according to the determined biological signal, the state of a channel corresponding to the electrode, and determines a biological change by using the biological signal inputted according to the set channel state.

A human-machine interaction method based on visual stimulations. The method can be applied to multiple new technical fields of display, which comprise but are not limited to the fields of virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR), holographic projection and glasses-free 3D. The system consists of three parts: a human body biological collection apparatus, a software client for human-machine interaction and a display terminal. Input ports of the software client are connected to a human body physiological signal collection device (in a wired or wireless manner); a user wears the collection device, and communication ports of the client are respectively connected to communication ports of a display module by means of a multichannel communication module. Firstly, the system is initialized, and then starts to run based on a control method of visual stimulations (an object flicker or distortion). If a target is a text input target, an interface is switched to a text input interface, and texts are inputted by using a physiological signal detection algorithm for a human body. If the target is not a text input target, the type of information is determined by using a detection algorithm of a specific physiological signal and visual stimulation feedback information, so as to complete the interaction. Search and switching can be performed among text input boxes, selection options and multiple directories, and a bottom layer of the directories can be reached, so as to select a target.

This invention is directed to a bio-potential electrode-set for measuring electrical signals during an electrooculogram (EOG) from a human, particularly to flexible self-adhesive bio-potential sensing electrode-set substrate specifically to cover the perimeter of the eyes for EOG recordings. In general, EOG is a technique for measuring the cornea-retinal standing potential that exists between the front and the back of the human eye. The resulting signal is called the electrooculogram. Primary applications include, but are not limited to, ophthalmological assessments that require recording eye movements or gaze tracking and human computer/machine interfaces.

An earpiece module includes a housing configured to be attached to an ear of a person, a first audio sensor within the housing configured to detect auscultatory sounds from an ear canal of the ear and generate a physiological information signal from the auscultatory sounds, and a second audio sensor within the housing and oriented in a direction towards an outside environment of the person.

A processor is configured to receive the physiological information signal and the environmental information signal, process the external sounds in the physiological information signal and the environmental information signal to reduce the voice sounds and the footstep sounds from the physiological information signal and generate a cleaner physiological information signal.
