First Claim
1. A neckband device comprising:
- a first arm and a second arm;
a power source embedded in the first arm, the power source configured to power an eyewear device that includes at least one sensor;
a computation compartment connected to the first arm and the second arm, the computation compartment, the first arm and the second arm configured to conform to a user'"'"'s neck;
a processor embedded in the computation compartment, the processor configured to compute at least one value from the at least one sensor; and
wherein the neckband device is communicatively coupled with the eyewear device.

Abstract
A distributed augmented reality system for producing rendered environment includes a neckband formed from a first arm, second arm, and computation compartment. A power source is embedded in the first and/or second arm, while a processor is embedded in the computation compartment of the neckband. The neckband may be capable of producing an AR, VR or MR environment, or any combination thereof. The neckband device may be used with a coupled eyewear device system encompassing a Near-Eye Display (NED) and/or secondary user device, which may also produce an AR, VR or MR environment, or any combination thereof. The neckband device may provide power and computation to the eyewear device, allowing for a reduced form factor AR/VR/MR eyewear device.
