MUMBAI, India, Nov. 21 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202544039490 A) filed by Google Llc, Mountain View, U.S.A., on April 24, for 'method of minimizing rusting at a power interface of a wearable computing device.'
Inventor(s) include Jian, Hao-Yang; and Wu, Szu-Han.
The application for the patent was published on Nov. 21, under issue no. 47/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A wearable computing device includes a housing, a band having a circuit, an energy storage device, a power interface configured to deliver electrical power from the energy storage device to the circuit, a switching device configured to selectively couple the energy storage device to the power interface, and a processor. The processor is configured to determine a state of the wearable computing device and initiate a detection window of a certain duration when the state corresponds to a predetermined state and motion of the wearable computing device is detected. More specifically, initiating the detection window includes controlling operation of the switching device to couple the energy storage device to the power interface to deliver the electrical power to the circuit only at intermittent intervals to reduce an amount of the electrical power delivered to the circuit during the certain duration, thereby minimizing rusting at the power interface."
