Samsung Patent for Smart Glasses
A patent filed on the US Patent and Trademark Office (first noticed by 91Mobiles) to Samsung Electronics describes a head-mounted wearable system which is used to implement augmented actuality (AR) and digital actuality (VR) experiences for the person. It might use a portion of the person’s discipline of view (FoV) to show data on a real-world object within the type of a picture or textual content.

As per FIG 3, the interior elements of the sensible glasses will embody a light-weight output module positioned in a housing and configured in a technique to output a picture, a speaker module with a conductive plate, a coil surrounding the plate disposed in a housing, and an influence transmission construction which might transmit energy from the battery to the sunshine output module.
However, when an influence part and a speaker are disposed close to one another in a small mounting area, the difficulty of noise arises. To mitigate this, part of the facility transmission construction will likely be positioned above the conductive plate which partially overlaps the central space of the speaker’s coil. As per the patent, this can scale back the imbalance within the magnetic discipline utilized to the coil, lowering the interference-related noise generated from the speaker.

FIG 1 particulars the digital system in a community surroundings. Its elements will embody varied fashions controlling features reminiscent of enter, sound, show, audio, sensors, haptics, digicam, and energy administration. This means that the purported Samsung sensible glasses could be outfitted with a digicam and haptics. Further, it additionally explains that the system’s speaker could also be used for common functions, reminiscent of taking part in multimedia. It would even have a receiver which might permit the person to obtain calls.
The patent additionally reveals the inclusion of two processors — a CPU or an utility processor (AP) and an auxiliary processor. The latter is purported to both be a GPU, an NPU, an ISP, or a communication processor (CP), working independently from the first processor. However, it stays unclear if it will be applied as a separate part which consumes much less energy or built-in into the primary processor to carry out a specified perform.
Meanwhile, the patent additionally hints in the direction of synthetic intelligence (AI) capabilities, if the auxiliary processor is applied as an NPU. The system might embody {hardware} for AI processing with machine studying able to producing AI fashions, both on-device or through a server. It can also have a software program construction which compliments the AI {hardware}.
