1. A system, comprising:
- a wearable ring computing device, the ring computing device including a housing, the housing having an interior bounding member and an exterior bounding member, the interior bounding member and the exterior bounding member being configured for being coupled together to form a waterproof cavity there between;
a curved battery positioned within the cavity, the curved battery having an arc approximating a corresponding arc of the ring housing;
a sensor module, the sensor module positioned within the cavity and proximate the battery, the sensor module comprising one or more sensors, the one or more sensors comprising one or more of a pedometer, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a heart rate sensor, a pulse oximeter, a sleep monitor, an internal measurement unit, a thermometer, a Galvanic skin response sensor, and an electrocardiogram, the one or more sensors being configured to sense a change in a condition of a wearer of the ring;
a flexible printed circuit board positioned within the cavity proximate one or both of the curved battery and the sensor module, the flexible printed circuit board portion comprising;
a processor, the processor configured for determining one or more of a number of steps taken, a quality of sleep, a heart rate, blood pressure, and body temperature of a user of the ring computing device; and
a memory, associated with the processor for storing data; and
a semiconducting light element disposed at least partially within the housing.
