Deployment systems for computer system finger devices

A system, comprising:

• a foldable finger device that is wearable on a finger while controlling external equipment, wherein the finger device has first and second housing portions coupled by hinge structures and has first and second respective magnets in the first and second housing portions that separate the first and second housing portions away from one another in a first stable state and that move the first and second housing portions towards one another in a second stable state;
• and
• an item configured to store the foldable finger device, the item comprising:
• a magnet that is configured to attract the first magnet of the foldable finger device;
• and
• support structures that support the magnet and that are configured to support the foldable finger device for storage while the magnet attracts the first magnet of the foldable finger device.

A finger device configured to be worn on a finger, the finger device comprising;

• a foldable housing configured to be coupled to the finger, wherein the foldable housing has first and second portions coupled by hinge structures, wherein the foldable housing has magnets configured to impart folding bistability to the foldable housing, and wherein the foldable housing is operable in a stable unfolded state in which the magnets move the first and second portions away from one another and is operable in a stable folded state in which the magnets move the first and second portions towards one another to attach the foldable housing to the finger;
• a sensor configured to gather finger input as the finger moves the housing;
• and
• wireless communications circuitry configured to wirelessly transmit the finger input.
