US 2026/0010236 A1 · USING A GESTURE TO INVOKE OR BANISH AN AI ASSISTANT, AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF

Abstract

One or more instructions executed by a wrist-wearable device and/or a head-wearable device is described herein. Instructions that, when executed by a wrist-wearable device and/or a head- wearable device worn by a user, cause the wrist-wearable device and/or the head-wearable device to perform or cause performance of one or more actions. The instructions further include capturing sensor data using sensors, initiating an assistant associated with the head-wearable device and/or wrist-wearable device. The instructions further include, in accordance with a determination that the hand gesture is no longer maintained, ceasing to capture sensor data via the sensors, and providing, by the assistant, a response to the user based on the sensor data. The response includes a characterization of a scene within the sensor data and a characterization of one or more objects within the sensor data.

A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a computer system including a wrist-wearable device and/or a head-wearable device worn by a user, cause the computer system to perform or cause performance of:

in accordance with a determination that a hand gesture performed by a user wearing the head-wearable device and the wrist-wearable device is maintained:
capturing sensor data using one or more sensors, and
initiating an assistant associated with the head-wearable device and/or wrist-wearable device;
in accordance with a determination that the hand gesture is no longer maintained, ceasing to capture sensor data via the one or more sensors;
and
presenting, by the assistant, a response to the user based on the sensor data, wherein the response includes one or more of characterization of, by the assistant:
i) a scene within the sensor data, and
ii) one or more objects within the sensor data.

5 more elements

A method, comprising:

at a head-wearable device and/or a wrist-wearable device:
in accordance with a determination that a hand gesture performed by a user wearing the head-wearable device and the wrist-wearable device is maintained:
capturing sensor data using one or more sensors, and
initiating an assistant associated with the head-wearable device and/or wrist-wearable device;
providing an indication to the user that the assistant is using the sensor data;
and
in accordance with a determination that the hand gesture is no longer maintained:
ceasing to capture sensor data via the one or more sensors, and
providing, by the assistant, a response to the user based on the sensor data, wherein the response includes one or more of:
i) characterization of a scene within the sensor data;
and
ii) identification of one or more objects within the sensor data.

9 more elements

An electronic device, comprising:

one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in memory and configured to be executed by one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
at a head-wearable device and/or a wrist-wearable device:
in accordance with a determination that a hand gesture performed by a user wearing the head-wearable device and the wrist-wearable device is maintained:
capturing sensor data using one or more sensors, and
initiating an assistant associated with the head-wearable device and/or wrist-wearable device;
providing an indication to the user that the assistant is using the sensor data;
and
in accordance with a determination that the hand gesture is no longer maintained:
ceasing to capture sensor data via the one or more sensors, and
providing, by the assistant, a response to the user based on the sensor data, wherein the response includes one or more of:
i) characterization of a scene within the sensor data;
and
ii) identification of one or more objects within the sensor data.
