Abstract

See full text

A smart ring charging system comprises one or more permanent magnets and a smart ring. The smart ring includes a ring-shaped housing, a power source disposed within the ring- shaped housing, and a charging circuit. The charging circuit includes an induction coil, and is configured to charge the power source when user motion changes magnetic flux from the one or more permanent magnets through the induction coil. The smart ring further includes a component, disposed within the ring-shaped housing and configured to draw energy from the power source, and further configured to perform one or more of the following operations: i) sense a physical phenomenon external to the ring-shaped housing, ii) send communication signals to a communication device external to the ring-shaped housing, and iii) implement a user interface.
