Abstract

Claims (39)

1 . A ring device for displaying information, the ring device comprising:

a ring band;

a processor located within the ring band and configured to analyze data to identify one or more conditions;

a projector located at least partially within the ring band and communicatively coupled to the processor; and

one or more sensors located at least partially within the ring band, wherein:

the one or more sensors comprise an optical sensor configured to receive a user input, wherein the user input comprises an interaction, wherein the interaction comprises a gesture performed on a surface with a graphical user interface (GUI) projection from the projector;

the one or more sensors are communicatively coupled to the processor; and

the processor is configured to cause the projector to present the information indicative of the one or more conditions, as identified.

2 . The ring device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to analyze biometric data of a user.

3 . The ring device of claim 1 , wherein the projector is configured to present the information indicative of the one or more conditions via light emitting diodes (LEDs).

4 . The ring device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more sensors comprise a microphone input.

5 . The ring device of claim 1 , wherein:

the projector is configured to project a virtual keyboard on the surface; and

the GUI projection comprises the virtual keyboard.

6 . The ring device of claim 1 , wherein the user input is received from a person wearing the ring device.

7 . The ring device of claim 1 , wherein the projector is configured to project a color.

8 . The ring device of claim 1 , wherein the projector is further configured to display the information based on the user input.

9 . A method of displaying information comprising:

receiving a user input from one or more sensors communicatively coupled to a processor, wherein the one or more sensors and the processor are located in a ring band and the one or more sensors comprise an optical sensor, wherein the optical sensor is configured to receive an interaction, wherein the interaction comprises a gesture performed on a surface with a graphical user interface (GUI) projection from a projector;

analyzing, by the processor, the user input to identify one or more conditions; and

causing the information indicative of one or more conditions to display via the projector located at least partially within the ring band.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the analyzing the user input comprises analyzing biometric data of a user.

11 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the projector is configured to present the information indicative of the one or more conditions via light emitting diodes (LEDs).

12 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the user input comprises a microphone input.

13 . The method of claim 9 , wherein:

the projector is configured to project a virtual keyboard on the surface; and

the GUI projection comprises the virtual keyboard.

14 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the projector is configured to project a color.

15 . One or more non-transitory computer-readable media comprising computing instructions that, when executed on one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

receiving a user input from one or more sensors communicatively coupled to the one or more processors, wherein the one or more sensors and the one or more processors are located in a ring band and the one or more sensors comprise an optical sensor configured to receive an interaction, wherein the interaction comprises a gesture performed on a surface with a graphical user interface (GUI) projection from a projector;

analyzing, by the one or more processors, the user input to identify one or more conditions; and

causing information indicative of one or more conditions to display via the projector located at least partially within the ring band.

16 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 15 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to analyze a biometric data of a user.

17 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 15 , wherein the projector is configured to present the information indicative of the one or more conditions via light emitting diodes (LEDs).

18 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 15 , wherein the user input comprises a microphone input.

19 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 15 , wherein:

the projector is configured to project a virtual keyboard on the surface; and

the GUI projection comprises the virtual keyboard.

20 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 15 , wherein the projector is configured to project a color.
