Samsaung取得高科技智慧型隱形眼鏡的專利

人：Samsaung

事：取得高科技智慧型隱形眼鏡的專利，雖然這些專利已在 2014 年通過

時：2016/4

地：USPTO

物：這款隱形眼鏡可以將畫面直接投射到穿戴者的眼球上。透過此項技術，未來 AR（擴增實境）將直接投影到使用者的眼球上，讓整體使用更具真實感，大幅提高 AR 的體驗。此外，這款隱形眼鏡還擁有相機、天線及多種動作感應器，並且可以透過「眨眼」控制，進行照片拍攝。而隱形眼鏡也可以連到個人的智慧手機上，進行簡易的資料運算。

摘要：

除了三星有在做智慧隱形眼鏡之外，Google 也已經申請兩項智慧型眼鏡的專利。其功能主要是醫療用途，透過隱形眼鏡來收集淚液，並藉由此偵測血糖，讓糖尿病患者更方便測得血糖，這和三星的發展方向完全不同。三星申請智慧隱形眼鏡專利的時間，和 Google 在美國通過偵測血糖的隱形眼鏡專利的時間相同，都是在 2014 年。

Note:

In the future we can be like a spy, and wear contact lenses in the crowd to monitor anybody and anywhere; or as the god of gamblers movie, man wears contact lenses with powerful multi-functions to win the gambling.

Devices and methods for a contact lens with an outward facing light source 

Abstract

A body-mountable device can include a transparent material and a substrate at least partially embedded in the transparent material. The transparent material can have a mounting surface and a surface opposite the mounting surface. A light source can be disposed on the substrate and configured to emit light through the surface opposite the mounting surface. The light source can be controlled by circuitry disposed on the substrate. The circuitry can be configured to receive modulation instructions and modulate the light emitted by the light source based on the modulation instructions.

隔空操控三星Gear VR

人：三星VR

事：第三代 Gear VR

時：2016/3

地：USPTO

物：用过手机VR头盔的用户都应该清楚，手机VR头盔最不方便的地方就是操控，由于VR头盔不能实现向手机触屏那样的控制，只能通过头部的摆动、以及蓝牙手柄来控制，而且想要在头盔内切换App十分困难，而三星的这项隔空操控专利会让Gear VR的操控更加随心所欲，可以带来VR体验上的提升。

摘要：

美国专利局在二月底通过了一项三星的专利申请，三星的这款Gear VR在头盔的左侧上方配备了一个传感器模组，传感器模组可以隔空识别用户的手势操作，并与Gear VR的中的手机进行反馈，也就是你无需触屏/按键即可操作Gear VR。通过此功能对Gear VR中的手机进行任何触控操作，而且还可以实现快捷调节音量大小。

SENSOR BASED UI IN HMD INCORPORATING LIGHT TURNING ELEMENT
Abstract

A head-mounted display (HMD) system includes a head-mounted frame that encases a portable electronic device (PED) that includes a touch-less sensor, and the PED. The frame includes: a front slot to hold the PED and maintain contact with the PED's display face; an entry via dimensioned to prevent blockage of the sensor's field of view; and a light turning element positioned to redirect the sensor's field of view through an exit via in the frame and into open space outside of the frame. The PED includes: the sensor to detect a touch-less gesture; an image display to display image content on the PED's front display face; and processing circuitry configured to change modes from handheld mode to HMD operation mode based on a determination that the PED is encased by the frame and to select the image content based on input signals received from the sensor and the mode.

三星智能手錶之掃描靜脈驗證身份專利

人：三星(Samsung)

事：讓智能手錶通過掃描靜脈識別穿戴者的身份

時：2016/2

地：SIPO、USPTO、EPO、WIPO

物：當用戶對三星智能手錶進行初始設置時，其內置的紅外感測器能掃描捕獲靜脈圖像並進行存儲，藉此辨識用戶身份。

摘要：

智能穿戴越來越受歡迎，但日前不少智能手錶都很容易遭受黑客的攻擊。當用戶對三星智能手錶進行初始設置時，其內置的紅外感測器能掃描捕獲靜脈圖像並進行存儲。當用戶需要驗證身份時，可通過一感測器掃描一張全新的靜脈圖像並與之前儲存的那張進行對比，來確認用戶是否被允許使用某些特定的功能。

Note:

The international company as Samsung has a plurality of patents for wearable device. The litigation for wearable device patent will be the next battleground.

WEARABLE DEVICE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME

EP2980678A1

摘要

Disclosed are a wearable device and a method of controlling the wearable device. The wearable device includes a sensor unit configured to detect at least one movement of the wearable device, and a control unit configured to determine a state of the wearable device based on the at least one detected movement, and to control, based on the determined state, the wearable device to operate in a first mode of performing a preset function of the wearable device or in a second mode of not performing the preset function. 

User authentication based on a wrist veinpattern
US 20140196131 A1

ABSTRACT

Technology is described for authenticating a user based on a wrist vein pattern. A wrist contact sensor device detects a wrist vein pattern. The wrist contact sensor device may be wearable by being positioned by a wearable support structure like a wristband. One or more pattern recognition techniques may be used to identify whether a match exists between a wrist vein pattern being detected by the sensors and data representing a stored wrist vein pattern. A user may be authenticated based on whether a match is identified satisfying matching criteria.

IBM 23年蟬聯在美取得最多專利數量

人：IBM

事：2015年在美取得7,355項專利(數量位居全美之冠)，且是第23年蟬聯寶座。

時：2016/1

地：USPTO

物：IBM營收有6％投入研發，而去年取得的7,355項專利中有超過2,000項屬於認知運算與雲端平台領域。

摘要：

根據專利資料庫公司IFI Claims公布的最新統計，去年美國專利商標局（USPTO）一共核發29.8萬項功能性專利，較前年數量減少1％，是2007年以來首度下滑。除了IBM之外，2015年前10大排名的企業包括三星電子、佳能、高通、谷歌、樂金電子（LG）及英特爾。但微軟名次下滑至第10名，因微軟去年功能性專利數量減少31％。其中，IFI Claims資深分析師凱帝（Larry Cady）表示：「與其將所有專利歸在同一個立案公司旗下，近來有不少企業選擇將專利分散到多個獨立公司，這也是微軟及Panasonic去年專利數量大幅減少的主因。」蘋果去年名次維持在第11名，而亞馬遜科技名次從前年的第50名躍升至去年的第26名。

Note:
The granted patent quantity ranking discloses three enterprises from Asia. There are two enterprises from Korea and one enterprise from Japan. The enterprises from Korea have a stronger ambition to flight with enterprises from USA or the other location in the world. We cannot ignore the enterprises from Korea.
