Wearable computing, input, and display device
First Claim
1. A wrist worn computing device comprising:
- an adjustable thin wristband wrapped around a wrist of a user;
an extender mechanism attached to the wristband such that the extender mechanism has a recessed position and an extended position;
an input mechanism attached to the extender mechanism such that the input mechanism has a recessed position in conjunction with the extender mechanism in which the input mechanism is wrapped around the wristband, and an extended position in conjunction with the extender mechanism such that the input mechanism is unwrapped from around the wristband and extended such that it is substantially positioned beneath fingertips of the user without being detached;
a display mechanism attached to the wristband within a structural housing of the wrist worn computing device and positionable above the wrist of the user; and
a computing mechanism attached to the structural housing of the adjustable thin wristband.

Abstract
A wearable computing, input, and display device is disclosed. One embodiment of the invention includes a band wrappable around a wrist of a user, one or more input mechanisms, a display mechanism, and a computing mechanism. The input mechanisms are attached to the band and have recessed and extended positions. In the recessed position, the input mechanisms are positioned under the wrist of the user. In the extended position, the input mechanisms are substantially positioned at the user'"'"'s fingertips. The display mechanism is attached to the band such that it is over the wrist of the user, whereas the computing mechanism is attached to the band and operably coupled to the input and display mechanisms. In an alternate embodiment, the display mechanism is additionally rotatable from a flat position to a raised position, and vice-versa, where the raised position is user controlled for optimal viewing by the user.
