Description

{Multi purposed wearable computer, It's structure and how to use}

The present invention relates to a structure and a use method of a multipurpose computer, and more particularly, to a smart watch that is designed to change the purpose of use of a product when the smart glasses being worn are uncovered and wound on the wrist, So that the user can change the purpose of using the product with the smart headphone.

In addition, it is possible to disperse the main components of the built-in computer so that it can be accomplished even if it is worn on different parts of the body where the wear position is different, so as to maximize the volume of major components, When parts are worn, they are superimposed to protect weak parts or complement their functions. In addition, the wearer can reduce the inconvenience that the wearer may feel while wearing the product, and conveniently use various functions to be worn on each body part.

People's interest in the next-generation smart devices evolved from conventional smart phones is growing, and "wearable computers", which are worn and used by the world's leading IT companies in the developing human body, are gradually emerging.

For example, the US company Google is in the process of publicizing and testing prototype of Smart Glasses Project Glass, and there are reports that US Apple and Korea Samsung are developing smart wrist watches.

However, the above-mentioned smart glasses are expected to have many disadvantages and limitations as it is an innovative product which has not been available in the past. Although smart timepieces have been released several times, they have not been able to expand the market due to the shortcomings and limitations of the products themselves. All of the products should be improved and innovated.

If smart glasses is guessed as the information of the products that have been released to date, smart glasses realize "augmented reality", and transmit various kinds of information about the persons and objects shown to the wearer in real time. It has a merit that it can give a visual effect like a big screen even though it is a screen, and a bone conduction earphone is installed on a smart glasses leg so that vibrations can be transmitted to an ear or a skull.

On the other hand, since the display can be seen only when the smart glasses are worn, those who have not used the glasses should take the inconvenience that ordinary users of glasses have experienced while living in their own home. something to do. In addition, there is no clear alternative to the input method, such as pressing a phone number, other than voice recognition, which has limited accuracy so far. Even if the touch pad is attached to the eyeglass leg instead of the display, It is necessary to develop innovative input methods.

When you think about the smart clock as information of the products that have been released and the products that have been released, you can see the information displayed on the wrist display while looking at the moment when you need, just like you would use a normal wristwatch. And it is possible to reduce inconvenience to be felt when wearing relative to smart glasses.

However, the size of the display to be worn on the wrist is limited only by the width of the wrist, and there is a limit to the length in order to improve the usability even when the hand moves freely or wears long sleeves. When compared to the growing number of smartphones, this is retrogressive, and there is a limit to showing a lot of information. In addition, following the form of a classical clock, various functions are accumulated, and it is necessary to take the inconvenience that the short time of use is given by failing to secure the capacity of the battery, and to listen to the outside by inevitably through the speaker attached to the clock In order to prevent this, an earphone or other smart device such as a wired or wireless method is indispensable.

If the sound transmission method using the bone conduction provided in the above-mentioned smart glasses is popularized, the wired or wireless type headphones connected to the conventional smart devices can be used without listening to music, However, as mentioned in the above-mentioned smart glasses, there will be inconvenience that glasses should always be used.

Accordingly, it is a main object of the present invention to combine the advantages of smart glasses, a smart clock, and a smart headphone, while compensating for the disadvantages thereof, so that they can be mounted on a human body for use for each purpose.

Another object of the present invention is to use smart watches as a smart watch equipped with a touch screen when worn on the wrist, and to use smart glasses as augmented reality function and a large display with a visual effect .

Another object of the present invention is to eliminate the inconvenience of wear and storage of glasses that the wearer can feel by taking off the smart glasses and winding them around the wrist for easy carrying and storage.

Another object of the present invention is to disperse major components of the built-in computer so as to be able to accomplish the purpose of use even if it is worn on different parts of the body.

Another object of the present invention is to disperse main components of the built-in computer and maximize the volume of each component so as to make the built-in computer multifunction and high-performance, and to increase the capacity of the battery so as to extend the use time.

Yet another object of the present invention is to disperse major components of a built-in computer so as to make the thickness of the developed state thin, while the dispersed main components are wound on the body parts to be overlapped with each other, There is.

It is a further object of the present invention to provide a structure in which relatively strong parts are superimposed on major component parts whose surface hardness and strength are weak, so as to reduce damage to major component parts by human activities .

It is a further object of the present invention to provide a speaker phone or a headset which has a voice input / output function such as a call function in each body part modified and installed according to the purpose of use, depending on the surrounding situation.

In order to accomplish the above object, the multi-purpose wearable computer 100 according to the present invention includes a flexible body 200 formed to be flexible so that it can be wound around a specific body part to form an overall appearance; An eyeglass part 300 that can be spread and worn on the head and fixed; A watch lock 400 to be worn around the wrist to fix it so that it is not loosened; And a built-in computer unit 500 for processing input information to input / output a voice or display an image.
