Finger-to-Ear ECG: Systematic Evaluation of an Earbud-Based Cardiac Monitoring Approach
Philipp Lepold, Paula Breitling, Jonas Hummel +2
Ear-ECG enables unobtrusive cardiac monitoring, but existing approaches often struggle with low signal amplitudes and limited morphology preservation. We evaluate a finger-to-ear E…
NeuroClick: Preserving Surgeon Autonomy through Hands-Free Earable Tooth-Click Control in Neurosurgery
Jonas Hummel, Maximilian Burzer, Clara Sayffaerth +6
Neurosurgeons frequently interact with operating room (OR) technologies while sterility and occupied hands constrain control. We introduce earables as a direct, hands-free control…
Reassessing the Feasibility of PPG-Based Non-Invasive Blood Glucose Level Estimation
Supraja Ramesh, Markus Neufeld, Michael Küttner +2
Non-invasive blood glucose level (BGL) estimation from photoplethysmography (PPG) holds great promise for wearable health monitoring, but results across studies are hard to compare…
Characterizing In-the-Wild Personal Listening Device Use to Inform Earable Application Design
Supraja Ramesh, Jonas Hummel, Silvia Becker +6
Ear-worn devices are evolving from audio-playback tools into sensing platforms for health, interaction, and context-awareness. Yet, earable systems are typically designed and evalu…
pcbGPT: Automatic PCB Schematic Synthesis from Natural Language Requirements
Tobias King, Steven Kehrberg, Michael Beigl +1
Translating natural-language hardware requirements into correct printed circuit board (PCB) schematics remains difficult in embedded, IoT, and wearable development. Designers must…
CHOMP: Multimodal Chewing Side Detection with Earphones
Jonas Hummel, Maximilian Burzer, Felix Schlotter +7
Chewing-side preference (CSP) is a risk factor for temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) and a behavioral manifestation. Although TMDs affect roughly one-third of the global populatio…
WHAR Datasets: An Open Source Library for Wearable Human Activity Recognition
Maximilian Burzer, Tobias King, Till Riedel +2
The lack of standardization across Wearable Human Activity Recognition (WHAR) datasets limits reproducibility, comparability, and research efficiency. We introduce WHAR datasets, a…
Haptic Biofeedback for Wakeful Rest: Does Stimulation Location Make a Difference?
Jueun Lee, Martin Flipe, Philipp Lepold +2
Wearable haptic interventions offer promising support for relaxation through slow, vibrotactile biofeedback. Despite their potential, current applications focus on stress-inducing…
Closed-Loop Rhythmic Haptic Biofeedback via Smartwatch for Relaxation and Sleep Onset
Jueun Lee, Dennis Moschina, Supraja Ramesh +3
We investigate the use of musically structured, closed-loop vibration patterns as a passive biofeedback intervention for relaxation and sleep initiation. By encoding rhythmic meter…
EarXplore: An Open Research Database on Earable Interaction
Jonas Hummel, Tobias Röddiger, Valeria Zitz +6
Interaction with sensor-augmented earphones, referred to as earables or hearables, represents a major area of earable research. Proximate to the head and reachable by hand, earable…
earEOG via Periauricular Electrodes to Facilitate Eye Tracking in a Natural Headphone Form Factor
Tobias King, Michael Knierim, Philipp Lepold +4
Eye tracking technology is frequently utilized to diagnose eye and neurological disorders, assess sleep and fatigue, study human visual perception, and enable novel gaze-based inte…
A Survey of Earable Technology: Trends, Tools, and the Road Ahead
Changshuo Hu, Qiang Yang, Yang Liu +8
Earable devices, wearables positioned in or around the ear, are undergoing a rapid transformation from audio-centric accessories into multifunctional systems for interaction, conte…
Heatables: Effects of Infrared-LED-Induced Ear Heating on Thermal Perception, Comfort, and Cognitive Performance
Valeria Zitz, Michael Küttner, Jonas Hummel +3
Maintaining thermal comfort in shared indoor environments remains challenging, as centralized HVAC systems are slow to adapt and standardized to group norms. Cold exposure not only…
