DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF DISCLOSED EMBODIMENTS
Some embodiments of the present application will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which some, but not all embodiments of the application are shown. Indeed, various embodiments of the application may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will satisfy applicable legal requirements. Like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout.
FIGS. 1A and 1B are schematic views of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the invention. With reference to FIGS. 1A and 1B, an electronic device 100 includes a frame 110 configured to be wearable on a user. The frame 110 includes a bridge portion 150 having a first mountable section 130M, a first arm portion 160 having a second mountable section 120M, and a second arm portion 170 having a third mountable section 140M. Moreover, the bridge portion 150 is configured to be supported by the nose of the user, the first arm portion 160 has a first free end 180 supported by an ear of the user, and the second arm portion 170 has a second free end 190 supported by the other ear of the user. As shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, in the present embodiment, the electronic device 100 includes covers 120, 130, and 140 configured to be respectively mounted on the first mountable section 130M, the second mountable section 120M, and the third mountable section 140M. In FIG. 1A, the covers 120-140 are mounted in the respective mountable sections 120M-140M, whereas in FIG. 1B, the covers 120-140 are shown as detached from the electronic device 100. As shown in FIG. 1A, the covers 120-140 may be mounted so as to provide an overall aesthetic view of an eyewear, for example.
When the covers 120-140 in the electronic device 100 are detached, a plurality of capsules enclosing components of the electronic device providing enhanced capabilities may be mounted in the respective mountable sections of the frame. FIGS. 2A and 2B are schematic views of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the invention. FIG. 2A illustrates an electronic device 200 in which the difference compared to the electronic device 100 is that a plurality of capsules 220, 230, and 240 are being mounted after the covers have been detached. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the capsules 220-240 are configured to be mounted on a first mountable section 230M, a second mountable section 220M, and the third mountable section 240M of a frame 210.
FIG. 2B illustrates the electronic device 200 with the capsules 220-240 mounted and integrated with the overall structure of the frame 210 of the electronic device 200, such that the electronic device 200 maintains the aesthetic feel of an eyewear to the user. The frame 210 including the bridge portion 250, the first arm portion 260, and the second arm portion 270 may be formed of a plastic material and/or a metal material. Furthermore, the frame 210 may be partially hollow. For example, when the frame 210 is partially hollow, the frame 210 may include electronic connections (not shown) integrated in the bridge portion 250, the first arm portion 260, and the second arm portion 270 for electrical connection to the mounted capsules 220, 230, and 240. In the present embodiment, the capsules 220 and 240 have substantially a same weight. Balancing the weight of the capsules 220 and 240 may be achieved by an iterative process in which the volumes of different components inside the capsules, such as a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) and a battery, are first defined. The PCBA may be manufactured to match the dimensions of the battery, for example. The weights of the components may be compared, and the components inside the capsules 220 and 240 may be distributed to balance the weight of the capsules 220 and 240 mounted on the second mountable section 220M and the third mountable section 240M. However, the electronic device in other embodiments of the invention may be balanced in weight by other methods not departing from the spirit of the invention. Accordingly, the user of the electronic device 200 does not feel discomfort due to different weight force being exerted on the head and ears of the user.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the capsules 220-240 may respectively enclose an imaging unit, an controller, and a battery. In the present embodiment, the imaging unit is enclosed by the capsule 230, the controller is enclosed by the capsule 220, and the battery is enclosed by the capsule 240. However, other embodiments of the invention may enclose other components to provide different functions for the electronic device 200 according to a specific activity. For example, the capsule 240 enclosing the battery may also include a memory card slot, and both the capsules 220 and 240 may include heat dissipation elements. Moreover, the imaging unit enclosed by the capsule 230 may include additional optical elements or sensors needed for the specific activity.
In some embodiments, the capsules 220-240 are mounted on the first mountable section 230M, the second mountable section 220M, and the third mountable section 240M by a specific locking mechanism. Moreover, the specific locking mechanism requires a specific orientation for each of the mountable sections 220M-240M. For example, with reference to FIG. 2A, the first mountable section 230M on the bridge section 250, the second mountable section 220M on the first arm portion 260, and the third mountable section 240M on the second arm portion 270 of the frame 2 may include structural walls machined at angles such that a specific orientation is required in order for the capsules 220-240 to be mounted on the respective mountable sections 220M-240M. As shown in FIG. 2A, the second and third mountable sections 220M and 240M contain a structural wall having a laddered shape, so that a specific orientation is required for mounting. Moreover, the specific orientation required by the mounting sections 220M-240M ensures that, for example, the imaging unit enclosed by the capsule 230 can capture photos or videos accurately and in the proper orientation. Furthermore, specific orientation also ensures that the electrical connections to the controller and the battery enclosed in the capsules 220 and 240 are secure. However, the invention is not limited by the locking mechanism described, and other mechanisms for mounting the capsules 220-240 such as via clipping, snapping, slidding, or magnetic mechanisms may also be possible.
FIGS. 3A and 3B are schematic views of an electronic device according to another embodiment of the invention. With reference to FIGS. 3A and 3B, an electronic device 300 of FIGS. 3A and 3B is different from the electronic device 200 of FIGS. 2A and 2B in that, the capsules 320, 330, and 340 may be connected to each other by a external cable 325. The external cable 325 may be an electronic cable, an optical cable, or a flexible printed circuit (FPC) cable containing integrated wires for electrical connection between the capsules. When the capsules 320-340 connected by the external cable 325 are respectively mounted on the first mountable section 330M, the second mountable section 320M, and the third mountable section 340M, the external cable 325 is disposed on a side of the frame 310 facing the user, as shown in FIG. 3B. Accordingly, since the frame 310 in the present embodiment do not require integrated wiring for the electrical connections of the capsules 320-340, the electronic device 300 can be adaptable to be various types of eyewear, googles, helmets, belts, and head straps, for example. Moreover, manufacturers may be able to produce frames mountable by the capsules 320-340 at a lower cost without the integrated wirings. The frame may also be made of a metal and contain integrated heat dissipating fins to help with heat dispersion.
FIG. 4 illustrates a system for communicating data between a remote terminal and an electronic device according to an embodiment of the invention.
