Abstract
A finger-worn wearable ring device may include a ring-shaped housing, a printed circuit board, and a sensor module that includes one or more light-emitting components and one or more light-receiving components. The wearable ring device may further include a communication module configured to wirelessly communicate with an application executable on a user device.
Claims20
A finger-worn wearable ring device, comprising:
- a housing having an interior width between 12 mm and 24 mm and an exterior width between 18 mm and 30 mm for at least a portion of the finger-worn wearable ring device, the housing comprising:
- an external housing having an outer curved surface of the finger-worn wearable ring device, the external housing comprising a first metallic material;
- and
- an internal housing having an inner curved surface of the finger-worn wearable ring device, the internal housing comprising a second metallic material, the internal housing coupled with the external housing, wherein at least a portion of the inner curved surface of the internal housing is configured to contact a tissue of a user when the finger-worn wearable ring device is being worn by the user;
- a curved battery positioned within a curved portion of the housing having a thickness between 1.5 mm and 3 mm, the thickness of the curved portion of the housing measured between the outer curved surface and the inner curved surface of the finger-worn wearable ring device, wherein the battery extends through at least a first portion of the housing of the finger-worn wearable ring device;
- a printed circuit board disposed between the internal housing component and the external housing, wherein the printed circuit board extends through at least a second portion of the housing of the finger-worn wearable ring device different from the first portion;
- and
- one or more sensors electrically coupled with the printed circuit board and the curved battery and configured to acquire data from the user through the internal housing to monitor at least one of physical activity, sleep, or health of the user.

A finger-worn wearable ring device, comprising:
- a housing having an interior surface and an exterior surface of the finger-worn wearable ring device, wherein at least a portion of the interior surface, the exterior surface, or both, comprise one or more metallic materials, wherein at least a portion of the interior surface is configured to contact a tissue of a user;
- a curved battery positioned within a curved portion of the housing;
- a printed circuit board disposed at least partially within the housing;
- a plurality of sensors electrically coupled with the printed circuit board and the curved battery, the plurality of sensors configured to acquire data from the user to monitor at least one of physical activity, sleep, or health of the user, the plurality of sensors comprising:
- one or more light-emitting components configured to emit light associated with two or more wavelengths, wherein the two or more wavelengths include a first wavelength associated with infrared light and a second wavelength associated with visible light;
- and
- one or more light-receiving components configured to receive the light associated with the two or more wavelengths;
- and
- a communication module communicatively coupled with the plurality of sensors, the communication module configured to transmit the data acquired by the plurality of sensors, an analysis of the data generated by one or more processors of the finger-worn wearable ring device, or both, to a user device.
6 more elements
A finger-worn wearable ring device, comprising:
- a housing having an interior surface and an exterior surface of the finger-worn wearable ring device, wherein at least a portion of the interior surface, the exterior surface, or both, comprise one or more metallic materials, wherein at least a portion of the interior surface is configured to contact a tissue of a user;
- one or more windows disposed within the interior surface of the housing;
- a curved battery positioned within a curved portion of the housing, wherein the curved battery substantially conforms to a curved perimeter of the housing;
- a printed circuit board disposed within the housing;
- a plurality of sensors electrically coupled with the printed circuit board and the curved battery, the plurality of sensors configured to acquire data from the user to monitor at least one of physical activity, sleep, or health of the user, the plurality of sensors comprising:
- at least one light-emitting component configured to emit light through the one or more windows;
- and
- one or more light-receiving components configured to receive, through the one or more windows, the light emitted by the at least one light-emitting component;
- one or more processors configured to control the plurality of sensors, process the data acquired by the plurality of sensors, or both;
- and
- a communication module communicatively coupled with the plurality of sensors, the one or more processors, or both, the communication module configured to transmit the data acquired by the plurality of sensors to a user device.
