Wearable Devices Receives U.S. Patent for Innovative Gesture Control, Enabling Precision Interaction with Digital Devices
May 30 2025 - 8:45AM
Wearable Devices Ltd. (the “Company” or “Wearable Devices”)
(Nasdaq: WLDS, WLDSW), a technology growth company specializing in
artificial intelligence (“AI")-powered touchless sensing wearables,
recently announced that the United States Patent and Trademark
Office has granted a continuation of its patent titled
“Gesture and Voice-Controlled Interface Device”, strengthening its
leadership in revolutionizing intuitive human-device interactions
for next-generation digital ecosystems.
Traditional gesture sensing systems continuously track hand and
finger movements but lack clear "start" and "end" points, making it
difficult for devices to understand when a user truly intends to
zoom, adjust volume, or manipulate an object. As a result,
unintuitive solutions have been used - such as requiring the use of
both hands, adding special buttons, or abandoning continuous
control altogether. The same goes for voice assistants, which
require a “wake word”, prompting them to wait for further
instructions.
Wearable Devices’ newly allowed patent defines a method to
extract precise start and end points from continuous gestures. This
breakthrough enables devices to support natural and intuitive
control gestures like pinch-to-zoom not just for zooming images,
but also for adjusting volume, resizing objects, or moving elements
- seamlessly and touch-free.
The technology is ideally suited for augmented reality (“AR”)
headsets, gesture-controlled smart devices, and wearable
controllers based on cameras, Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), or
electromyography (EMG) sensors - making mid-air fine control
finally accessible and natural.

“anticipate” or other comparable terms. For example, we are using
forward-looking statements when we discuss the benefits and
advantages of our products and technology, our aim to make neural
input as intuitive and accessible as possible, and the potential of
our touchless control technology in enabling devices to support
natural and intuitive control gestures. All statements other than
statements of historical facts included in this press release
regarding our strategies, prospects, financial condition,
operations, costs, plans and objectives are forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts
nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only
