US Patent 11409371 Systems and methods for gesture-based control

Systems and methods for gesture-based control are described. In some embodiments, a system may include a device configured to be worn at a person's wrist. The wearable device may include a biopotential sensor, a wrist location sensor, and a wireless transmitter. The system may have a first state and a second state. In the first state, the system may be configured to classify first data based on an output from the wrist location sensor to detect a wake word gesture. In the second state, the system may be configured to classify second data to detect a second gesture, the second data being based on both wrist location data and biopotential data. The system may be configured to transition from the first state to the second state based, at least in part, on a detection of the wake word gesture.
