    Abstract: A mobile wake-up device responds to a snooze-button in an alarm clock. The mobile wakeup device includes a mechanism for making the device mobile, a controller for directing the movement of the device and responding to input, and an alarm off input. When the alarm clock's alarm goes off and an individual activates the snooze button, the mobile wake-up device moves forward, drops from a table to the floor, and moves to a remote location. While moving, the device may use sensors to avoid objects in its path. After the mobile wake-up device has reached the remote location, the alarm signals again. To turn off the alarm, the individual must get out of bed and locate the mobile wake-up device.

    Abstract: A watch design that has a movable case that keeps the face of the watch visible regardless of the position of the wrist. In this way, a user can quickly see the watch face in the proper orientation so that the time can be quickly and correctly determined. There are several ways to accomplish this. The case can be mounted on a turntable that rotates on the y-axis. A frame containing the watch mechanism and display is hinged on said turntable and rotated vertically upon the x-axis described by the hinge-mounted frame mounted on said frame. Another embodiment uses a gimbaled point on which the face is free to rotate, much like a compass. In this embodiment, the watch case is weighted to that the face always moves to a readable position. Finally, the watch may include displays mounted in the link of a watchband.

    Abstract: A photoelectric generating means (6) is disposed proximally to the surface of the dial (21) on the back cover (3) side, and the dial (21) is made of a magnetic, optically transparent material. The support substrate (62) of the photoelectric generating means (6) is a nonmagnetic material, and the antenna (5) is located proximally to the surface of the support substrate (62) on the back cover (3) side. Because the support substrate (62) is a nonmagnetic material, external RF signals can pass through the dial (21) and photoelectric generating means (6) to the coil (52) of the antenna (5), and signals can thus be received by the antenna (5). Because the antenna (5) can be contained inside the case member (1), the appearance can be improved.

    Abstract: To make it possible such that a front button disposed in an armoring case is made the same height as a display face or lower than the display face, and a switch board can be fixed by a simple constitution even if a case back is not closed. A switch spring is extended in a planar manner from a battery accommodation concave part in which a battery has been accommodated to an outside of a lower face of a switch board, and additionally has an elastic end part bent at a right angle to an upper side in the outside of the switch board. A hook locking window is formed in the elastic end part of the switch spring, and a hook is formed in a battery frame made of resin. The switch board disposed between the battery frame and the switch spring is fixed with the battery frame and the switch spring being hook-fastened.

    Abstract: The present invention includes a dual display watch module comprising a watch face with selectively changing backgrounds which is capable of displaying the time of day using an analog display superimposed over the color-changing watch face thereby creating unique optical effects and patterns and which has a significantly reduced overall thickness. The invention includes a novel configuration of the internal components of the timepiece resulting in a significant reduction in the thickness of the subject timepiece, thereby enhancing the comfort of the individual wearing the timepiece. The novel configuration comprises positioning two smaller sized batteries in the same spatial plane as the PCB and analog watch movement instead of the conventional stacked assembly arrangement whereby a larger battery is placed directly behind the PCB. This allows for an overall thinner movement, thereby resulting in a significantly thinner watch without detracting from the functionality of the watch. The novel configuration of the present invention is achieved by utilizing a single micro-control unit (MCU) to drive both a core analog movement and a color-changing LCD display. Utilizing two 1.5V batteries, the present invention continuously powers the analog movement at 1.5V and steps up the voltage to 3V to intermittently power the color-changing LCD display.
