Some time ago, Meizu released a pair of MYVU AR glasses, which weigh only 71g and look pretty cool after being worn.

There is also a smart ring for use with glasses. To put it simply, you can control the interaction of the glasses through gestures, touch and other operations of the ring, such as adjusting brightness, volume, and watching short videos.

What I want to say is, is it possible that Meizu’s inspiration came from Apple’s previously applied patent? Or maybe the heroes have the same vision, and Meizu was the first to realize it?

This is really not my fault. Many Apple-related patents have been exposed before. A few months ago, the US Patent Office showed a new Apple smart ring patent, revealing its specific usage.

Judging from the patent, Apple plans to use this smart ring to connect computers, tablets, mobile phones, headsets, VR headsets and other hardware in series, supporting a variety of operation methods, such as friction, rotation, click, long press, forward tilt, and backward Tilt...

It may be possible to achieve more precise gesture operations on Vision Pro, or use it as a mouse on Mac, or even control the playback and pause/volume increase and decrease of AirPods, and it can also remind users through vibration.

In addition, the Apple Ring may also have the function of monitoring blood pressure, blood oxygen, heart rate and step counting. It can be regarded as a reduced version of the Apple Watch. Is it similar to the Meizu Ring in terms of functions, and is it even better?

Apple’s Aple Vision Pro will be officially released early next year. I wonder if the Apple Ring will be unveiled at the same time?

In fact, not only Apple is researching smart rings, but its old enemy Samsung is also researching them and will release them soon. In 2022, the Korean Patent Office granted Samsung the Galaxy Ring trademark. In addition, according to the patent, the Galaxy Ring can provide quite a few health tracking functions. It integrates ECG and PPG sensors, which means it can monitor heart rate and body temperature. Earlier patents showed that the Galaxy Ring also supports home appliance control functions.
