Wearable Devices Receives U.S. Patent Notice of Allowance for Hybrid Voice and Gesture Control Innovation
May 13 2025 - 8:30AM
Wearable Devices Ltd. (the “Company” or “Wearable Devices”)
(Nasdaq: WLDS, WLDSW), a technology growth company specializing in
artificial intelligence (“AI")-powered touchless sensing wearables,
today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office
has allowed its patent titled “Gesture and Voice-Controlled
Interface Device.”
This patent represents a significant advancement in the
Company’s strategic intellectual property (“IP”) portfolio,
strengthening global protection for its core innovations in
wearable bio-potential sensors. The Company’s IP strategy includes
patent families designed to protect a wide spectrum of future
applications, ensuring agility in response to emerging global
market needs.
The newly allowed patent enables the integration of gesture
recognition with voice control interfaces, introducing
personalization features, and combining both neural and voice-based
user authentication. This creates a more seamless, secure, and
intuitive human-machine interaction.
The patented technology enables intuitive, hands-free
interaction across a wide range of applications. For example, users
wearing AI-powered or augmented reality (“AR”) glasses can navigate
maps, control audio, and access virtual assistants using natural
gestures and voice commands. In smart home applications, a user can
use their voice to select a home appliance to control - such as the
TV volume or air conditioning temperature - and then use subtle
gestures to fine-tune the settings. In multi-user environments,
such as smart homes or shared AR systems, the device intelligently
recognizes individual users through unique gesture and voice
signatures, delivering personalized experiences. In clinical or
surgical settings, medical professionals can interact with digital
interfaces - scrolling, zooming, or switching views - without
compromising sterility, using only in-air gestures and voice
cues.
“Voice control is an essential interface for smart environments,
but it often lacks the precision, personalization and the security
users need,” said Guy Wagner, President and Chief Scientific
Officer of Wearable Devices. “By integrating voice and
gesture-based interaction along with neural and voice-based user
authentication, we’re bridging that gap, enabling users not only
initiate actions by voice but also to fine-tune and personalize
device behavior through intuitive gestures. This combination
introduces a new dimension of seamless, secure, and intelligent
human-computer interaction.”
