Ruggedized wearable electronic device for wireless communication

A wearable electronic device, comprising:

• logic, at least a portion of which is partially implemented in hardware, the logic configured to:
• receive touch input data for one or more interactions registered by one or more input elements, wherein the touch input data is associated with at least one of:
• selecting a preconfigured message to communicate and selecting one or more other electronic devices to which to communicate a preconfigured message;
• determine, based on the touch input data, a selected preconfigured message to communicate and one or more selected other electronic devices to which to communicate the selected preconfigured message;
• communicate, using wireless communication circuitry, the selected preconfigured message to the one or more selected other electronic devices upon receiving touch input data corresponding to a simultaneous interaction with a pair of input elements;
• and
• display a default set of navigation icons on a display following the communication.

At least one non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a wearable electronic device to:

• receive touch input data for one or more interactions registered by one or more input elements, wherein the touch input data is associated with at least one of:
• selecting a preconfigured message to communicate and selecting one or more other electronic devices to which to communicate a preconfigured message;
• determine, based on the touch input data, a selected preconfigured message to communicate and one or more selected other electronic devices to which to communicate the selected preconfigured message;
• communicate, using wireless communication circuitry, the selected preconfigured message to the one or more selected other electronic devices upon receiving touch input data corresponding to a simultaneous interaction with a pair of input elements;
• and
• display a default set of navigation icons on a display following the communication.
