Embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to wearable technology devices and more particularly to an interchangeable wearable technology module and associated jewelry or other finewear, clothing, accessories, or other wearables.
The use of wearable devices of different types has grown and continues to grow. For example, various fitness trackers, smart watches, and similar devices are increasingly common and becoming more popular. It is estimated that 60 million such devices are sold annually with an estimated compound annual growth rate of 35% projected through 2018. However, one of the biggest barriers to further adoption of wearable devices is the appearance of the device itself. That is, the external styling of the device itself does not appeal to everyone.
Jewelry makers want to enter the wearable device market and are well-suited for providing a variety of styles that appeal to a wide range of people. However, incorporating wearable device technology into a piece of jewelry can be a significant challenge. For example, jewelry is typically designed, produced, and marketed in a very short time period making the inclusion of wearable technology in this time period extremely difficult. Furthermore, jewelry style can change frequently and so a static design of a wearable device incorporated in a piece of jewelry can become outdated rapidly. Further still, consumers want to have a variety of different types and styles for different types of dress, occasions, etc. Purchasing a number of different devices of different types or styles can costly, inconvenient, and undesirable for the consumer. Hence, there is a need for improved ways to incorporate wearable device technology into associated jewelry or other finewear, clothing, accessories, or other wearables.
Embodiments of the disclosure provide an interchangeable wearable technology module and associated jewelry or other finewear, clothing, accessories, or other wearables. This interchangeable “smart” module can be integrated into multiple styles and pieces of jewelry across an entire product line. The module can be inserted into pendants, bracelets and rings and be interchanged between them by the consumer. The consumer may purchase an interchangeable module together with a particular piece of jewelry or other wearable article. Additionally or alternatively, the consumer may purchase one or more modules and one or more wearable articles separately and then interchange the modules between the articles as needed or as desired.

A cylindrical module 100, 125, or 145 such as illustrated by these embodiments is thought to be especially useful with rings or other small jewelry or accessories or in other implementations where space is limited. For example, in one implementation, this module can be approximately 18 to 23 millimeters long and have a diameter of approximately 7 to 8 millimeters. Functions performed by such a module and the components to implement those functions are described further below with reference to
As illustrated in
A disc-shaped module 200, 235, or 250 such as illustrated by these embodiments is thought to be especially useful with pendants or other larger jewelry or accessories or in other implementations where more space is available and where such a round, relatively flat module can be installed. For example, in one implementation, this module can be approximately 7 to 8 millimeters high and have a diameter of approximately 18 to 20 millimeters. Functions performed by such a module and the components to implement those functions are described further below with reference to
As illustrated in
Also as illustrated by
A module 300, 335, or 350 such as illustrated by these embodiments is thought to be especially useful with bracelets or other larger jewelry or accessories or in other implementations where more space is available and where such a relatively long, relatively flat module can be installed. For example, in one implementation, this module can be approximately 7 to 8 millimeters high, 7 to 8 millimeters deep, and have a length of approximately 18 to 20 millimeters. Functions performed by such a module and the components to implement those functions are described further below with reference to
A module 400 or 440 such as illustrated by these embodiments is thought to be especially useful with relatively small jewelry or accessories or in other implementations where space is limited. For example, in one implementation, this module can be approximately 6 to 8 millimeters high, 6 to 8 millimeters deep, and have a length of approximately 14 to 18 millimeters. Functions performed by such a module and the components to implement those functions are described further below with reference to
As introduced above, the module 500 can comprise an exterior case 502 or covering. While the material of this case 5002 can vary significantly depending upon the implementation, various characteristics may be considered to be desirable. For example, it can be beneficial for this case 502 to be splash proof as defined by the IPX4 standard. The module 500 should be able to withstand the temperature & humidity ranges found in daily life which can roughly be defined as −20° C. to 60° C. (−4° F. to 140° F.). The module 500 should also be able to withstand the shock and vibrations of day to day use while encased in a ring, bracelet, necklace, or other wearable form. Since the module may be handled by the consumer frequently and placed inside an enclosed or partially enclosed jewelry housing, the case material should be able to withstand the potential corrosion effects of oil from human contact, household dirt, and any reaction to commonly used jewelry materials such as gold, silver, gemstones, etc. Various types of polymers and other materials are commonly known to exhibit these types of characteristics and any of these or other such materials may be used to form the case 502 of the module 500. In some cases, it may be desirable for the case 502 to be able to diffuse light or to be at least somewhat translucent, at least in some regions. Therefore, the case 502 may be formed from a material that can cause the light to diffuse along the sides, top, and/or other portions of the module.
Within the case 502, the module 500 can comprise any number of components but will most likely include a processor 505 and a memory 510. Generally speaking, the memory can store pre-loaded instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform the various functions described below. As can be understood, the size and speed of the memory and the speed of the processor can vary depending upon the implementation. Also as can be understood, the processor 505 and memory 510 can be communicatively coupled with each other and other components of the module 500 by a data bus 530.
The basic components included in the module 500 can also comprise, as introduced above, a set of charging contacts 525. According to one embodiment, the module 500 can be charged with two metal contact points that connect to pins on a charging cradle. According to another embodiment, inductive charging or other wireless charging may be used. In such a case, the charger contacts 525 can comprise an inductive coupler or other suitable wireless charging coupler. The battery 515 can be of a size and type to be rechargeable in a period of approximately 6 hours and last for approximately 18 hours of regular usage. Regular usage can be considered to involve approximately 40 notifications per day and where a notification causes both the visual (LED) and buzzer (haptic) outputs to pulse twice in succession. The battery can be connected with and supply power to the other components of the module 500 via a power bus 520A and 520B.
Components of the module 500 can also include a communications module 535. According to one embodiment, the communications module 535 can comprise a Bluetooth transceiver to provide pairing between the module 500 and a mobile device. In such cases, the communications module 535 can provide pairing with a mobile phone with a typical range for Bluetooth communications, e.g., approximately 2 meters. According to one embodiment, data can be transferred over this link periodically, e.g., every 30 seconds. According to one embodiment, a Bluetooth pairing process may be initiated by a button 560 for both resetting and pairing the module. The module 500 may be registered via an application (“app”) executed on a third device, for example, a mobile phone, which can send the registration over a network. The module 500 may be connected with a code typed into the application that is kept with the packaging. According to one embodiment, the communications module 535 can also comprise a Bluetooth directional antenna. In such a case, the jewelry or setting may be designed to provide a known orientation for the module 500 to align the module with a hole, opening, or window through the jewelry to send Bluetooth signals.
Components of the module 500 can also include a haptic output module 540 such as a haptic motor, buzzer, etc. Generally speaking, the haptic output module 540 can provide a haptic feedback that can be felt by the user while wearing the module as a bracelet or necklace. For bracelets, it can be expected that the module will be positioned and worn on the top of the wrist. For pendants, the encasing necklace can be on a short enough chain that the encased module will be have direct skin contact to the chest, i.e., approximately 24″. However, if on a longer necklace is used or if the user is leaning forward, the light combined with the haptic noise may suffice for notification.
Components of the module 500 can also include an accelerometer 545 capable of tracking the user's steps (approximately) in both pendant and bracelet form. Generally speaking, the accelerometer 545 can be used to measure the number of steps taken. In some cases, the accelerometer 545 can be used to recognize if the module 500 is installed in a bracelet or necklace case based on a motion path of the user over time. According to one embodiment, the module 500 can receive input from the user by the user tapping on the module and the accelerometer 545 detecting the input. According to one embodiment, setting the module 500 in the charger can reset the module 500 to make a new determination of whether it's in a bracelet or pendant the next time movement is detected.
According to one embodiment, the module 500 may include a barometer 550 to determine elevation or changes in elevation.
Components of the module 500 can also include one or more LEDs 555 or other visual indictors. These LEDs 555 or visual indicators can provide notification when the module 500 pairs via Bluetooth, or when low on power or malfunctioning. According to one embodiment, the LEDs 555 can comprise multicolored LEDs capable of showing all colors. The LEDs 555 can be located on the module 500, e.g., top or sides of the module, so the user can see the light when looking down from a necklace or along the sides so it will be visible when in a bracelet format.
Components of the module 500 can also include, as introduced above, a reset button 560 or a pin hole through which a recessed button can be accessed and actuated by the user or a serviceman to reset the module 500 to factory settings. Either can reset to factory settings to repair, e.g., via Bluetooth, with a new phone or can reset to factory settings to test module for defects. This feature can allow the module to go back into its original settings and repair with a new phone. According to one embodiment, the reset button 560 can be visibly seen as a pin hole in the module 500 that a user inserts a pin into to reset it back to original settings.
According to one embodiment, the user can receive the module 500 from the store or online, separate from or with jewelry encasing. Along with the module 500 can be an instruction pamphlet explaining where to go to download the app to run it. The module 500 can also come with instructions on how to pair the device via Bluetooth to a mobile phone, e.g., by actuating the pairing button, by entering a code from the packaging, or with app pairing. During initial set up of the module, the user can download the phone app and then pair the module 500 to the phone or other mobile device. The phone or mobile device has an onboard screen to explain how it works and guide the user. According to one embodiment, the user can be prompted to set up which contacts are “loved ones,” i.e., family, friends, etc., that they want to get notifications for.
According to one embodiment, the module 500 may communicate, via the communication module, with a unique fitness tracking application and/or with other existing third party applications, e.g., Fitbit, AppleHealth, MapMyFitness, etc., executing on the paired mobile device. In this way, the module 500 can transmit motion data to the mobile device and the user can track their daily activity (via steps). The mobile device app can translate the data into step tracking against goals. The tracking can be done with either a unique designed application or in partnership with other apps.
As noted above, during set up and within the mobile application, the user can select contacts that are designated “loved ones.” When a loved one contacts the user via phone or text, the module 500 can respond with a vibration followed by a colored light to indicate which loved one contacted them. According to one embodiment, there can be an expected number, e.g., 6, loved ones per user and an expected 40-50 notifications per day. Notification signals can be sent from the phone or mobile device to the module 500 periodically, e.g., every 30 seconds, more or less, to conserve battery life while allowing the module 500 to be reasonably responsive.
