WEARABLE DEVICE INCLUDING RESIZING STRUCTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18437348 titled 'WEARABLE DEVICE INCLUDING RESIZING STRUCTURE
The wearable device described in the patent application includes a frame with a resizing structure that can adjust in response to pressure from the user's body.
- The resizing structure features an elastic member that deforms to match the shape of the user's body.
- A supporting member guides the deformation of the elastic member, extending from the first surface of the frame to cover part of the elastic member.
Potential Applications:
- This technology could be used in smart clothing, fitness trackers, or medical devices to provide a more customized and comfortable fit for users.
Problems Solved:
- The resizing structure addresses the issue of one-size-fits-all wearable devices that may not fit all users comfortably.
Benefits:
- Users can enjoy a more personalized and ergonomic fit with this adjustable resizing structure.
- The technology may lead to increased user comfort and satisfaction with wearable devices.
Commercial Applications:
- "Adaptive Fit Technology for Wearable Devices: Enhancing User Comfort and Performance"
Questions about Adaptive Fit Technology: 1. How does the resizing structure in the wearable device adjust to the user's body shape? 2. What are the potential implications of this technology for the wearable tech industry?
Original Abstract Submitted
According to an embodiment, a wearable device includes a frame including a first surface facing a part of the body of a user when the wearable device is worn on the user, and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a resizing structure on the first surface at least partially movable relative to the frame in response to pressure from the part of the body of the user. The resizing structure includes an elastic member which is deformable according to a shape of the part of the body of the user. The resizing structure includes a supporting member guiding a deformation of the elastic member by supporting the elastic member and extending from the first surface to cover at least a portion of the elastic member.
