EYEWEAR DEVICE INPUT MECHANISM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240056672 titled 'EYEWEAR DEVICE INPUT MECHANISM
Simplified Explanation
An electronics-enabled eyewear device with primary and secondary command channels for user input during untethered wear, with tap input detected by motion sensors in the device's body. A predefined tap sequence on the frame triggers device functions, such as displaying battery charge level with a double tap.
- The eyewear device has motion sensors integrated into its body to detect tap input.
- A tap sequence on the frame of the device can trigger specific functions.
- For example, a double tap on the frame can display the battery charge level.

- Potential Applications
- Smart glasses for hands-free control and interaction.
- Augmented reality devices for intuitive user input.
- Problems Solved
- Providing a convenient and intuitive way for users to interact with wearable devices.
- Enabling untethered control and input for electronic eyewear.
- Benefits
- Hands-free operation for improved user experience.
- Quick and easy access to device functions with simple tap gestures.
Original Abstract Submitted
an electronics-enabled eyewear device provides a primary command channel and a secondary command channel for receiving user input during untethered wear, one of the command channels providing for tap input detected by motion sensor(s) incorporated in a body of the eyewear device. a predefined tap sequence or pattern can be applied to frame of the device to trigger as device function. in one example, a double tap of the device's frame causes charge level display indicating a battery charge level.
