Abstract: Systems and methods for determining a location of a wearable electronic device are disclosed. In some aspects, the device includes a position acquisition device and an accelerometer. A hardware processor included in the device may be configured to generally maintain the position acquisition device in a low power state to save power. When a video or image is captured, it may tag the video or image with first location information. Given the inoperative position acquisition device, a current location may not be known. In some aspects, in response to a need for location information, measurements from an accelerometer may be stored. The position acquisition device may also be transitioned to an operative state, and after some time delay, a second location determined. In some aspects, the location of the capture may then be obtained based on the acceleration measurements and the second location.

Abstract: An eyewear device, method for use with an eyewear device, and a non-transient computer readable medium for detecting blood sugar levels are disclosed. The eyewear device has a frame including a first rim configured to support a first lens, a second rim configured to support a second lens, and a bridge connecting the first rim to the second rim. The bridge is configured to receive a nose of a user when the eyewear device is worn by the user. Blood sugar levels are detected by monitoring behavior of a pupil of an eye of the user with a sensor, comparing the monitored behavior with known blood sugar level behaviors, identifying a match responsive to the comparison between the monitored behavior and one of the known blood sugar level behaviors corresponding to a particular blood sugar level, and selecting the particular blood sugar level as a blood sugar level of the user.

Abstract: System, methods, devices, and instructions are described for fast boot of a processor as part of camera operation. In some embodiments, in response to a camera input, a digital signal processor (DSP) of a device is booted using a first set of instructions. Capture of image sensor data is initiated using the first set of instructions at the DSP. The DSP then receives a second set of instructions and the DSP is programmed using the second set of instructions after at least a first frame of the image sensor data is stored in a memory of the device. The first frame of the image sensor data is processed using the DSP as programmed by the second set of instructions. In some embodiments, the first set of instructions includes only instructions for setting camera sensor values, and the second set of instructions includes instructions for processing raw sensor data into formatted image files.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for performing operations for controlling brightness in an AR device. The operations comprise displaying an image on an eyewear device worn by a user; detecting a gaze direction of a pupil of the user; identifying a first region of the image that corresponds to the gaze direction of the pupil; and modifying a brightness level or value of pixels in the image based on the gaze direction such that pixels in the first region of the image are set to a first brightness value and pixels in a second region of the image are set to a second brightness value that is lower than the first brightness value.

Abstract: An antenna system comprises a combination of a loop antenna and a non-loop antenna. The loop antenna and the non-loop antenna is connected in common to a transceiver mechanism or signal feed mechanism. The non-loop antenna is in some embodiments provided by a dipole conductor. An eye-wear device incorporates the antenna system, a loop conductor and a dipole conductor of the antenna system being integrated in a body of the eyewear device. The loop conductor may be provided by a lens ring that extends around a lens held by the body. The lens ring may serve both as loop conductor and as a lens retention mechanism.
