Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A wearable device includes a wearable device structure. The wearable device has a first end and a second end each with a plurality of magnets. The first and second ends are coupled by overlapping of at least a portion of the first end magnets to at least a portion of the second end magnets. The wearable device structure includes an undercut structure for receiving at least a portion of the magnets. ID circuitry is provided at a surface or an interior of the wearable device.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A wearable device, comprising: a user wearable device structure, the wearable device including a first end and a second end; an electronic device coupled to the wearable device structure, the electronic device including a payment activity manager configured to receive from a user payment configuration parameters for each of a designated third party to receive payments, the payment activity manager including a designated third party payment data base that includes designated third party settings with third party IP addresses, payment sources for each of a designated third party, and method of payment, the payment activity manager performing an authentication of a designated third party for a payment, an electronic device coupled to the wearable device structure, the electronic component including a securities stock activity manager associating one or more securities, the securities stock activity manager configured to monitor one or more activities of one or more selected securities, the securities stock activity manager configured execute instructions from the user to buy or sell one or more securities; and ID circuitry at the wearable device or the electronic device. 2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the wearable device structure is at least partially made of a silicone rubber. 3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the ID circuitry is at least partially positioned in the interior of the wearable device. 4. The device of claim 1 , further comprising: a support structure coupled to the wearable device. 5. The device of claim 4 , wherein the ID circuitry is coupled to the support structure. 6. The device of claim 1 further comprising: one or more batteries coupled to the ID circuitry. 7. The device of claim 1 , wherein the first end overlaps the second end of the wearable device. 8. The device of claim 1 , wherein the electronic device includes one or more sensors. 9. The device of claim 1 , wherein the electronic device is configured to be in communication with a telemetry system. 10. The device of claim 1 , wherein the electronic device is configured to be in communication with a social network. 11. The device of claim 10 , wherein the one or more sensors acquires information selected from at least one of a wearable device user's activities, behaviors and habit information. 12. The device of claim 1 , wherein the electronic device is a mobile device. 13. The device of claim 12 , further comprising: a memory; a memory controller; one or more processing units (CPU's); a peripherals interface; a Network Systems circuitry; an input/output (I/O) subsystem. 14. The device of claim 1 , wherein the device includes an antenna and one or more sensors. 15. The device of claim 1 , wherein the ID circuitry includes ID storage, a communication system that reads and transmits the unique ID from an ID storage and a pathway system to route signals through the circuitry. 16. The device of claim 1 , further comprising: elements to enable installation of a firmware update. 17. The device of claim 1 , further comprising: an alarm. 18. The device of claim 1 , further comprising: a multi-protocol wireless controller that in operation characterizes available networks to determine current network information.
