Filed:

Jun 23, 2021

Appl. No.:

17/304567

Inventors:

- Santa Monica CA, US
Michael Wollman - Boulder CO, US
Nicholas Larson - Playa Vista CA, US
Patrick Timothy McSweene Simons - Downey CA, US

International Classification:

G06F 1/20
H04B 1/3827
H04N 5/232
G06F 1/16
H04B 1/036

Abstract:

Systems and methods for managing temperatures of wearable device components are disclosed. In one aspects, a method includes determining a temperature of an electronic component of the wearable device, determining a rate of temperature change of the electronic component, and determining whether to increase or decrease a transmission rate limit of the electronic component based on the temperature and the rate, adjusting the transmission rate limit based on the determination, and limiting a rate of transmission of the electronic component based on the adjusted transmission rate limit.

H04N 5/232
H04B 1/3827
G06F 1/16
H04B 1/036

Abstract:

Systems and methods for managing temperatures of wearable device components are disclosed. In one aspect, a wearable electronic device includes glasses, a wireless transmitter, an ambient temperature sensor, hardware processing circuitry, and a hardware memory storing instructions that when executed configure the hardware processing circuitry to determine an ambient temperature using the ambient temperature sensor, determine a maximum temperature of the wearable electronic device based on the ambient temperature, determine a temperature of the wearable electronic device, determine a difference between the maximum wearable temperature and the determined temperature of the wearable electronic device, and adjust a transmission rate of the wireless transmitter based on the difference.
