    Abstract: A carry case for an electronics-enabled eyewear device, such as smart glasses, has charging contacts that are movable relative to a storage chamber in which the eyewear device is receivable. The charging contacts are connected to a battery carried by the case for charging the eyewear device via contact coupling of the charging contacts to corresponding contact formations on an exterior of the eyewear device. The charging contacts are in some instances mounted on respective flexible walls defining opposite extremities of the storage chamber. The contact formations on the eyewear device are in some instances provided by hinge assemblies that couple respective temples to a frame of the eyewear device.

    Abstract: Apparatuses and systems for wearable devices such as eyewear are described. According to one embodiment, the wearable device includes a frame, a temple, onboard electronics components, and a coupling mechanism. The frame is configured to hold one or more optical elements. The temple is connected to the frame at an articulated joint such that the temple is disposable between a collapsed condition and a wearable condition in which the device is wearable by a user to hold the one or more optical elements within user view. The onboard electronics components comprise at least a pair of electronics components carried by the frame and the temple respectively. The coupling mechanism is incorporated in the articulated joint and that is configured to electrically connect the pair of electronics components across the articulated joint both when the temple is in the wearable condition and when the temple is in the collapsed condition.

    Abstract: Various waveguides and image display systems are disclosed herein. In an example, an image display system can include an optical engine configured to generate an image and a waveguide. The waveguide can have a light in-coupling region formed along a peripheral edge of the waveguide, the light in-coupling region including a first surface with a first set of diffraction gratings, and a light exit region formed along a top surface of the waveguide, the light exit region including a second set of diffraction gratings. The first set of diffraction gratings can be configured to diffract light towards the second set of diffraction gratings, and the second set of diffraction gratings can be configured to diffract light towards the user's eye.
