MagicFinger
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates generally to a device, tentatively named MagicFinger, which will utilize a flexible rubber artificial middle finger shell that communicates via Bluetooth with the user's cell phone.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The MagicFinger was invented by Stefan Oswald, a magician by trade. This device takes component from the traditional Bluetooth headset and integrates them into a synthetic finger worn by the user. An accelerometer is integrated in the device as well to allow for motion control by means of gestures. This provides both a practical and novel means of taking phone calls without placing the cell phone directly next to ones head.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Fig. 1 is a side view of the device
Fig. 2 is a bottom view of the device
Fig. 3 is a rear view of the device
Fig. 4 is a top view of the device
DETAIL DESCRIPTIONS OF THE INVENTION
All illustrations of the drawings are for the purpose of describing selected versions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
The main computer components along with the battery, microphone, accelerometer, and Bluetooth transmitter will reside in an artificial palm that extends the midpalmar space just under the middle and ring fingers (1). The MagicFinger will easily slide on and off the middle finger and be inconspicuous during normal wear. Using the accelerometer, hand gestures may give the user more controls. In the tip of the finger (2), there will be a speaker and a touch sensor that will initialize voice communication when finger is brought to ear. Three physical buttons will be accessible by the thumb and will be located just under the ring finger (3). The middle will be a push button and the top and bottom will be controlled by pushing one direction. The microphone (4) will be located near the far left bottom of the device. This is the future of computing.
The device has the same base in the palm and would have something that would go under a finger ring that the user wears already; telescoping flexible member to extend to the fingertips. In the main unit in the palm there is a speaker to transition to speaker phone. The device provides functionality for any finger not just middle.
Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as hereinafter described.
