Systems and methods for modular headset system
Arrangements described herein relate to systems, apparatuses, and methods for a headset system that includes a transducer configured to collect physiological data of a subject, a device housing configured to support the transducer, an insert portion disposed on the device housing, a support structure comprising a baseplate and a receiving portion, and a head cradle supported by the baseplate. The receiving portion extends in a direction that is oblique with respect to the baseplate. The insert portion is sized and shaped to engage the receiving portion to removably attach the device housing to the baseplate.
1. A headset system, comprising:
a transducer configured to collect physiological data of a subject;
a device housing configured to support the transducer;
an insert portion disposed on the device housing;
a support structure comprising a baseplate and a receiving portion, wherein the receiving portion has a length that extends in a direction that is oblique with respect to the baseplate when the baseplate is placed on a surface; and
a head cradle supported by the baseplate, wherein the insert portion is sized and shaped to engage the receiving portion to removably attach the device housing to the baseplate, wherein the transducer is configured to move relative to the device housing while the insert portion engages the receiving portion in the same direction that is oblique with respect to the baseplate.
2. The headset system of claim 1 , wherein the receiving portion extends in an oblique direction from the baseplate.
3. The headset system of claim 1 , wherein
the receiving portion comprises a body and a receptacle; and
the receptacle forms an aperture configured to receive the insert portion.
4. The headset system of claim 3 , wherein
the aperture has an inner surface comprising slots;
the insertion portion comprises a rail having teeth; and
the teeth are configured to engage the slots when the insertion portion is engaged with the receiving portion.
5. The headset system of claim 3 , wherein
the insert portion comprises an extension having a top surface and a bottom surface;
the bottom surface faces away from the device housing; and
the rail is disposed on the bottom surface.
6. The headset system of claim 3 , wherein the body extends in an oblique direction from the baseplate.
7. The headset system of claim 3 , wherein
the body extends from the baseplate in a first direction;
the receptacle extends in a second direction; and
the first direction traverses the second direction.
8. The headset system of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the insert portion has a flat shape.
9. The headset system of claim 8 , wherein the device housing is configured to stand upright on a surface via the portion of the insert portion having the flat shape.
10. The headset system of claim 1 , wherein
the transducer extends from the device housing in a first direction;
the insertion portion extends in a second direction; and
the first direction and the second direction are parallel.
11. The headset system of claim 1 , further comprising an actuator configured to lock the insert portion in a position relative to the receiving portion when at least a part of the insert portion is inserted into the receiving portion.
12. The headset system of claim 11 , wherein the actuator comprises a latch disposed on the device housing.
13. The headset system of claim 11 , wherein
the insertion portion comprises a rail having teeth; and
the actuator is configured to lock the insert portion in the position relative to the receiving portion by controlling a position of the rail.
14. The headset system of claim 13 , wherein the actuator is configured to control the position of the rail via a lever mechanism connecting the actuator with the rail.
15. The headset system of claim 13 , wherein the rail faces an opening slit of the receiving portion.
16. The headset system of claim 11 , wherein
the transducer extends from the device housing in a first direction;
the actuator is arranged on a surface of the device housing that faces a second direction; and
the first direction and the second direction are opposite.
17. The headset system of claim 11 , wherein
the device housing comprises a first portion and a second portion separate from the first portion;
the first portion is configured to support the transducer; and
the actuator is disposed on the second portion.
18. The headset system of claim 17 , wherein the insert portion is disposed on the first portion.
19. The headset system of claim 17 , wherein the insert portion is disposed on the second portion.
20. The headset system of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the insert portion is detachably mounted to the device housing.
21. A headset system, comprising:
a transducer configured to collect physiological data of a subject;
a device housing configured to support the transducer, the transducer is disposed on a front side of the device housing;
an insert portion disposed on the device housing;
a support structuring comprising a baseplate and a receiving portion, wherein the receiving portion has a length that extends in an oblique direction from the baseplate;
a head cradle supported by the baseplate, wherein the insert portion is sized and shaped to engage the receiving portion to removably attach the device housing to the baseplate, wherein the transducer is configured to move relative to the device housing while the insert portion engages the receiving portion in the same direction that is oblique with respect to the baseplate; and
an actuator disposed on a back side of the device housing, wherein the front side and the back side are opposite sides of the device housing.
