Wearable ring device and user interface processing

This invention describes a wearable ring that fits on a user's finger. It contains sensors that detect when the ring rotates around the finger. This rotational information is then sent wirelessly to another electronic device, specifically to be used as an input for extended reality (XR) applications, such as controlling virtual environments.

Why it matters: Since 2021, XR platforms have matured, making unobtrusive, natural input methods like this ring more integral to immersive user experiences.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: ModerateMiniaturized electronics, custom ring, wireless communication
