ULTRASONIC DEVICE-TO-DEVICE COMMUNICATION FOR WEARABLE DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18349445 titled 'ULTRASONIC DEVICE-TO-DEVICE COMMUNICATION FOR WEARABLE DEVICES

Simplified Explanation

- The patent application describes a system and method for transmitting ultrasound signals between wearable computing devices. - The first wearable computing device sends a first ultrasound signal, and the second wearable computing device receives a second ultrasound signal in response. - The first wearable computing device uses the time-of-flight of the ultrasound signal to determine the location of the second wearable computing device. - Based on this location information, a wireless connection is established between the two devices. - The wireless connection is established using the identifier and location associated with the second wearable computing device.


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods are described that can include transmitting, from a first wearable computing device, a first ultrasound signal and receiving, by the first wearable computing device and responsive to the first ultrasound signal, a second ultrasound signal from a second wearable computing device. The method can include identifying, by the first wearable computing device, a location of the second wearable computing device with respect to a location of the first wearable computing device where the location of the second wearable computing device can be identified based on a determined time-of-flight of the first ultrasound signal. The method can include establishing a wireless connection between the first wearable computing device and the second wearable computing device where the wireless connection can be based at least in part on the identifier and the identified location associated with the second wearable computing device.
