Definitions

  • the present invention relates to computer human interface devices, and more specifically to interface devices can be worn on and which interface with parts of the human body such as the hand. Such devices are useful in interacting with computer programs, such as interacting three dimensional representations of objects or data, or in the context of virtual reality, and in capturing body motion for later replay.
  • resistive flex sensors incorporating partially conductive elastomeric materials to measure the flexion of hand joints. These devices have the disadvantage that the value measured depends on the joint angle in a nonlinear way, and also upon previous joint angles, that is to say they display hysteresis. These devices have the further disadvantage that the value measured changes with temperature. These devices have the further disadvantage that they consist of several components—electrodes, active elastomeric medium, and a flexible substrate, as well as wires to carry signals to and from supporting circuitry, resulting in a relatively high overall cost.
  • FIG. 1 shows the general layout of conductive loops within or upon a hand worn embodiment of the device and their placement with respect to the joints of the hand.
  • FIG. 2 shows a different view of the device, showing the placement of conductive loops around the joints of the thumb.
  • FIG. 3 shows a view from the palmar surface of the device.
  • FIG. 4 shows the conductive wires connecting the conductive loops with the electronics module.
  • FIG. 5 shows the conductive loops and connecting wires that are associated with a single digit, connected to the electronics module.
  • FIG. 6 shows a single conductive loop and it's associated connecting wires, connected to the electronics module.
  • FIG. 7 shows the electronic circuit associated with each conductive loop.
  • FIG. 8 shows one embodiment of the electronic circuit associated with each conductive loop.
  • FIG. 9 shows a structure mounted on the device and embedded with tracking transceivers.
  • FIG. 1 overview
  • FIG. 2 thenar view
  • FIG. 3 palmar view
  • This embodiment of the device is worn on the hand but other embodiments may be worn on other parts of the body.
  • a flexible, elastic substrate 101 is worn on the user's hand 110 .
  • Said substrate 102 may be made from an elastomer such as silicone or polyurethane, or a woven elastic textile such as Lycra.
  • Conductive loops 102 , 103 , 104 , 105 , 108 and 109 are mounted upon, woven into or embedded within said substrate 102 .
  • the basic structure for each finger, formed by the set up loops 102 , 103 , 104 , 105 may be taken as being repeated for each digit as shown in the figure.
  • the thumb is also provided with two additional loops 108 and 109 .
  • the conductive loops 102 , 103 , 104 , 105 , 108 and 109 are made of metal wire such as copper which is of a thickness that they can bend repeatedly without breaking. In some embodiments the thickness of the copper wire is typically 0.1 mm.
  • An electronics module 106 houses inductance measurement electronics, a processor, a wireless transmitter and a battery and is mounted onto the substrate 102 .
  • Contacts (exemplified by 107 ) are provided as means to connect the device to an external power source in order to charge it's internal battery.
  • Conductive loop 102 is positioned on top of the distal interphalangeal joint of the digit, and the measurement of it's inductance is used to calculate the angle of this joint.
  • Conductive loop 103 is positioned on top of the proximal interphalangeal joint of the digit.
  • Conductive loops 104 and 105 are positioned on top of the metacarpal phalangeal joint.
  • Each conductive loop 102 , 103 , 104 , 105 , 108 , 109 consists of zigzag edges such that it can accomodate a stretching of the substrate.
  • the associated conductive loop is stretched and the inductance is increased.
  • the inductance is decreased.
  • the electronics module 106 uses this inductance change to calculate the joint flexion.
  • loops 104 and 105 are stretched or compressed.
  • the electronics module 106 uses the difference in the change in the change in inductance of loops 104 and 105 to calculate the degree of adduction or abduction of the digit.
  • loops 108 and 109 change inductance due to the twisting and bending motion imparted to the substrate between the thumb and the back of the hand. For this reason loops 108 and 109 are mounted close to the upper surface of the substrate, above the neutral axis of the material, to maximise this response.
  • the thumb is provided with conductive loops 201 , 202 , 203 and 204 which correspond to finger loops 102 , 103 , 104 and 105 respectively.
  • loop 202 is replaced by a loop pair 203 , 204 in order to measure adduction and abduction of the thumb metacarpal phalangeal joint.
  • Loops 203 and 204 measure the thumb carpal metacarpal joint in the same way as described for the measurement of the finger metacarpal phalangeal joint using loops 104 and 105 .
  • Magnets 302 are placed on the each of the fingertips close to conductive loops 301 .
  • the electronics module 106 includes current drivers attached to the coil.
  • the electronics module 106 can receive a command from an external computer to drive a current in the coil 301 , producing a force on the magnet 302 and creating a tactile feedback effect on the user's skin.
  • the structure comprised of 301 and 302 can be replicated at other points of the skin surface in order to provide more detailed tactile feedback effects.
  • Fasteners 303 for attaching the wearable device may be provided to allow sections of the wearable device to be split apart and joined together, in order to make it easier to put on and take off.
  • FIG. 4 shows the zig-zag connecting wire pair 401 connecting the loop 102 with the electronics module 106 .
  • the zig zag connecting wire pair is so shaped to accomodate stretch in the same way as the conductive coils 102 themselves. Every conducting coil discussed has a similar conducting wire pair connecting it to the electronics module 106 .
  • the coils 102 , 103 , 104 , 105 , 108 and 109 and connecting wires 401 may have alternate patterns such as wavy arcs in alternate directions, rounded zig zags, rectangular side to side patterns, or helical structures in order to allow them to acommodate stretching of the underlying and embedding substrate material.
  • FIG. 5 shows the detail of the layout of the coils for a single digit 102 , 103 , 104 , 105 and 301 and their associated conducting wire pairs 501 , 401 , 504 , 503 and 502 connecting each coil to the electronics module 106 . This arrangement is repeated for each digit of the hand.
  • FIG. 6 shows a single coil in detail.
  • Each coil discussed may consist of more than one turns of conductor. In one embodiment between three and five turns of inductor are used but other numbers of turns may be used without materially changing the invention.
  • Each connecting wire pair 401 comprises a wire 601 and 602 such that the whole circuit runs in an unbroken circuit from the electronics module 106 , down the wire 601 , one or more times around the loop 102 , and back down the wire 602 to the electronics module.
  • FIG. 7 shows the detail of a coil 102 connected to the electronics module 106 , which is comprised of a capacitor 705 , an amplifier 702 , a feedback loop 701 , a frequency counter 703 , and a processor/wireless transmitter 704 .
  • the processor 704 has inputs 706 which are connected to the frequency counters associated with all the other coils in the system which require measurement.
  • the basic arrangement comprising 705 , 702 , 702 , and 703 is repeated for each coil; only the circuit for coil 102 is shown here for clarity.
  • the amplifier 702 , feedback loop 701 , and frequency counter 703 are implemented inside a field programmable gate array such as a Lattice ICE40LP1K integrated circuit.
  • the amplifier 702 , feedback loop 701 and frequency counter 703 may be provided by an inductance to digital converter.
  • the amplifier may be provided by one or more transistors or amplifier integrated circuits without materially changing the invention.
  • the processor 704 which may be realised as a Nordic NRF52832 as well as other possible equivalent parts, includes a wireless transmitter, using for example the Bluetooth wireless transmission standard, which relays the measured joint angles to an external computer.
  • a proprietary protocol such as Nordic Enhanced Shockburst may be used as an alternative without materially changing the invention.
  • FIG. 8 shows an alternative embodiment of the electronics module 106 wherein a 4093 NAND Schmidt trigger is used to create the oscillator, and a capacitor 802 is placed differently to the capacitor 705 of FIG. 7 .
  • FIG. 9 shows a tracking structure 901 mounted onto the electronics module 106 and electrically connected to the electronics module 106 via the electrical contacts 107 .
  • the tracking structure 901 passes partially or fully around the wrist and houses multiple tracking modules 902 , for example implemented TS3633-CM1 provided by Triad Semiconductor. These receivers 902 provide the three dimensional position of the hand relative to an external frame of reference.
  • the tracking modules 902 are realised as light emitting diodes and tracked by a camera external to the device, again for the purposes of 3 d tracking.
