Embodiments are disclosed for disabling/re-enabling head tracking for spatial audio applications. In an embodiment, a method comprises: obtaining, using one or more processors of an auxiliary device worn by a user, motion data; tracking, using the one or more processors, the user's head based at least in part on the motion data; determining, using the one or more processors, whether or not the user is walking based at least in part on the motion data; in accordance with determining that the user is walking, determining if a source device configured to deliver spatial audio to the auxiliary device is static for a specified period of time; and in accordance with determining that the user is walking and the source device is static for the specified period of time, disabling the head tracking.

A system for monitoring ultraviolet (UV) exposure of a wearer. The system comprises a wearable device operable to sense UV radiation levels to which the wearer is exposed, and to transmit UV radiation information. The system further comprises an external computing device in remote communication with the wearable device, operable to receive the UV radiation information from the wearable device and configured to determine the wearer's real-time UV index value and the wearer's daily cumulative percentage of minimal erythema dose based upon the UV radiation information.

Systems and methods for electronically creating and modifying a fitness plan are disclosed. The method may include receiving electronic user data, collecting electronic fitness data, and displaying a suggestion for a fitness activity based on the electronic user data and the electronic fitness data.

Provided is a grip apparatus for a portable device. The grip apparatus includes a base unit mounted on the portable device, a sliding hole formed in the base unit in a longitudinal direction of the base unit, a pair of sliders inserted into the sliding hole and independently movable along the sliding hole, and a band unit coupled to the pair of sliders and deformed to form a space, into which a finger is insertable, as at least one of the pair of sliders is moved.

An apparatus device may include a bio-impedance sensor configured to take a bio-impedance measurement from a body of an individual, an optical sensor configured to take an optical measurement from the body of the individual, and a processing device configured to receive a first bio-impedance measurement from the bio-impedance sensor taken during a first period of time and a first optical measurement from the optical sensor taken during the first period of time, receive first location information of the individual during the first period of time, determine a first correlation between a physiological parameter and at least one of the first location, the first bio-impedance measurement, or the first optical measurement, and determine a first level of the physiological parameter based on the first correlation.

A support system which allows for the use and mounting of a smart phone, or similar electronic device, in a variety of ways. The support system may be adapted to function as a hand grip while supporting the smart phone during image acquisition, or while watching images on the smart phone. In another configuration, the support system may be adapted to attach to the user's belt. In another configuration, the support system may function as a support stand. In another configuration, the support system may be mounted on a tripod. The support system may include a kit of parts which allow for the modification of support accessories to allow for different configurations. The support system may include a removable shutter which may actuate the camera functions via wireless communication.

A wearable device can establish a verified session with a host device (e.g., by establishing that the wearable device is present in the vicinity of the host device and is currently being worn). The existence of such a verified session can be used to control user access to sensitive information that may be stored in or otherwise accessible to a host device. For example, the host device and/or application programs executing thereon can be configured to restrict a user's ability to invoke program functionality that accesses sensitive information based on whether a verified session with a wearable device is currently in progress.

A method and a system for an external device with information about a task being performed by a user device are provided. The method includes receiving information about the task being performed by the user device, identifying a plurality of external devices located near a wearable device of a user of the user device, determining a first external device to continuously perform the task from among the plurality of external devices based on the information about the task and characteristics information about the identified external devices, and transmitting the information about the task to the first external device.

The present invention relates to a mobile device securing system that allows a user to insert his/her finger into a finger gap created by the invention when engaged with the mobile device. This invention may be used on any number of mobile devices, provided that the mobile device has one or more ports included therein. The invention includes at least one connector disposed on a connecting end that may be inserted into a port included in the mobile device to create a finger gap into which a user may insert his/her finger therein, thus reducing the risk that the mobile device will be dropped when held with one hand.

Hands-free electronic devices and electronic functions that can be worn on the surface of the body in a biologically fit manner are described. The embodiments provide a convergence between electronic products, and biological, anatomical, and biomechanical aspects of the human body while providing hands-free and interchangeable wearable electronic apparatuses that can interact with human senses and physiology of a human body in a practical manner.
