Abstract
Systems and methods for generating and providing verbal feedback messages to wearers of man-machine interface (MMI)-enabled head-worn electronic devices. An exemplary head-worn electronic device includes an MMI and an acoustic signal generator configured to provide verbal acoustic messages to a wearer of the head-worn electronic device in response to the wearer'"'"'s interaction with the MMI. The head-worn electronic device may be further configured to monitor device states and generate and provide verbal acoustic messages indicative of changes to the device states to the wearer. The verbal messages are digitally stored and accessed by a microprocessor configured to execute a verbal feedback generation program. Further, the verbal messages may be stored according to multiple different natural languages, thereby allowing a user to select a preferred natural language by which the verbal acoustic messages are fed back to the user.
