1. A method performed at least in part on at least one processor, comprising:
- manipulating a first piece of a multi-piece wearable interactive device relative to a second piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive device, the second piece being connected to the first piece by a connecting wire and a sensor mechanism and worn by a wearer of the device to provide position data, the sensor mechanism includes at least one sensor that senses the position data including a distance of the first piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive device relative to the second piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive device based upon movement of the connecting wire;
sensing a position of the first piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive device relative to the second piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive device to provide the position data based on the manipulation;
determining, based at least in part upon the position data, an output to be rendered via the multi-piece wearable interactive device; and
rendering the output via the multi-piece wearable interactive device based upon the determination.

Abstract
A wearable interactive device, such as a wearable identity badge is disclosed. When a user moves the device, such as to position a display (e.g., part) of the device a sensed distance at a sensed horizontal and vertical angle, the device outputs content that is based on the position. Context data also may be used in determining the content to output, as well as any other sensed data that may be available.

9. In a computing environment, a system comprising:
a multi-piece wearable interactive device that includes at least one processor programmed to; determine a position data of a first piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive device based at least in part on interaction with the multi-piece wearable interactive device, the position data being determined relative to a second piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive, the second piece being connected to the first piece by a connecting wire and a sensor mechanism and worn by a wearer of the device to provide the position data, the sensor mechanism includes at least one sensor that senses the position data including a distance of the first piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive device relative to the second piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive device based upon movement of the connecting wire; and render output content, in which the output content is rendered based at least in part upon a position of the first piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive device relative to the second piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. One or more computer devices storing computer executable instructions, which on execution perform operations, comprising:
-
manipulating a first piece of a multi-piece wearable interactive badge relative to a second piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive badge, the second piece being connected to the first piece by a connecting wire and a sensor mechanism and worn by a wearer of the multi-piece wearable interactive badge, the manipulation being based on an interaction of the wearer with the multi-piece wearable interactive badge, the sensor mechanism includes at least one sensor that senses position data including a distance of the first piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive badge relative to the second piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive badge based upon movement of the connecting wire; determining content based upon the position data; and rendering the content via the multi-piece wearable interactive badge based at least in part upon a position of the first piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive badge relative to the second piece of the multi-piece wearable interactive badge. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
