1. A device configured to be implanted beneath human skin, the device comprising:
- a processor;
a first input device coupled to the processor and adapted to receive direct input from a user;
a first output device coupled to the processor, wherein the first output device comprises a first motor that vibrates with a first intensity, wherein a difference between the first intensity and a second intensity of vibration indicates at least one of a spatial direction and a signal intensity; and
a protective packaging disposed around at least the first input device, the first output device, and the processor.

Abstract
Embodiments of the invention generally relate to electronic devices capable of being implanted beneath the skin of a human user. The electronic devices include input devices for receiving input from a user, and output devices for output signals or information to a user. The electronic devices may optionally include one or more sensors, batteries, memory units, and processors. The electronic devices are protected by a protective packaging to reduce contact with bodily fluids and to mitigate physiological responses to the implanted devices.

19. A device configured to be implanted beneath human skin, the device comprising:
-
a processor; a memory coupled to the processor and configured to store data; a network card coupled to the processor and configured to transfer data between the memory and a second device; and a sensor coupled to the processor and adapted to detect a first motion of the device and a second motion of the device, wherein the first motion is associated with a first synchronous type of motion and the second motion is associated with a second synchronous type of motion, wherein, in response to the first motion being detected, data having a first data type is transferred between the memory and the second device, and wherein, in response to the second motion being detected, data having a second data type is transferred between the memory and the second device.

20. A device configured to be implanted beneath human skin, the device comprising:
-
a processor; a sensor coupled to the processor and configured to detect a first orientation of the device; an output device coupled to the processor and configured to display a time when the device is in the first orientation; a first LED configured to emit first light for a predetermine period of time to display an hour hand associated with the time on the output device; and a second LED configured to emit second light for the predetermine period of time to display a minute hand on the output device, wherein the first LED remains continuously lit for the predetermined period of time and the second LED flashes during the predetermined period of time. - View Dependent Claims (21)
