    [001] [001] This application is an International PCT Application to US Patent Application No. 13 / 891,230, filed on May 10, 2013, and claims the benefit of US Provisional Application No. 61 / 645,722, filed on May 11, 2012 The entire exposures of each of the aforementioned orders are incorporated here by reference. FIELD
    [002] [002] This invention relates to headphones and earphones, and in particular, headphones or earphones that incorporate physiological sensors. BACKGROUND
    [003] [003] This section provides background information related to the present exhibition that is not necessarily prior art.
    [004] [004] It is increasingly common for people to monitor their physiology while exercising. Exercise machines often include heart rate monitors to measure the user's heart rate, but these certainly require the user to remain stationary on the machine. Chest straps to monitor an athlete's heart rate and / or breathing have been developed, but these can be bothersome and uncomfortable and are therefore not used widely.
    [005] [005] Recently, developments in physiological ear-based monitors have demonstrated their acceptability for medical applications. Attempts have been made to incorporate these sensors into headsets and headphones. See, for example, LeBoeuf, et al., US Patent No. 8,157,730, for "Physiological and Environmental Monitoring Systems and Methods". However, keeping the sensors in the correct position for consistent and accurate monitoring remains a challenge. SUMMARY
    [006] [006] This section provides a general summary of the exhibition, and is not an inclusive exhibition of its full extent or all of its characteristics.
    [007] [007] Generally, embodiments of the present invention provide a combination headset and physiological sensor. In some embodiments, the headset is of the type including a housing with a loudspeaker in it, and an intensifier to engage the user's ear, and acoustically couple the loudspeaker to the user's ear. A physiological sensor is arranged on or preferably in the intensifier. The intensifier can have at least one opening or window in it, so that the sensor can optically connect to the user's ear to provide physiological data.
    [008] [008] In other embodiments, the combination of headset and physiological sensor includes a headset with a ring. A transmitter is provided in one of the headset and the ring, and a receiver is provided in the other in the headset and ring. The physiological sensor can sense physiological properties by optical transmission through a part of the ear between the transmitter and the receiver.
    [009] [009] Additional areas of applicability will become apparent from the description provided here. The description and specific examples in this summary are intended for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the extent of the present exposure.

    [0029] [0029] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings.
    [0030] [0030] A first embodiment of a headset and physiological sensor according to the principles of this invention is generally indicated as 20 in Figs. 1-3. The headset and sensor combination 20 includes a speaker 22 in a housing 24. An intensifier 26 including a body 28 adapted to fit inside the user's ear. The body 28 has an opening to receive a portion of the housing 24, so that the speaker 22 communicates with the interior of the body. A sound tube 30 protrudes from the body 28, and is adapted to fit in the user's ear canal, to deliver sound produced by the speaker 22 in the body 28, to the user's ear.
    [0031] [0031] In accordance with the principles of this invention, the combination of
    [0032] [0032] According to a second preferred embodiment of the intensifier indicated as 26A in Fig. 5, instead of the opening 34 in the wall of the intensifier body, there is a window 36. The window 36 can be a portion of the wall that is thinned sufficiently that the physiological sensor 32 can connect optically with the user's ear. Alternatively, window 36 can be a portion of the wall that is transparent to the wavelengths used by the physiological sensor 32. This window 36 can be co-shaped when the body is formed, or it can be formed separately, and inserted into the wall and secured for example, with adhesive, sonic welding, or other satisfactory means. Window 36 is shown as oval, but it could be some other shape and size. Otherwise, intensifier 26A is preferably like intensifier 26, and the other parts of a headset and physiological sensor incorporating intensifier 26A are similar to the combination of headset and physiological sensor 20.
    [0033] [0033] According to a third preferred embodiment of the intensifier indicated as 26B in Fig. 6, instead of opening 34 or window
    [0034] [0034] According to a fourth preferred embodiment of the intensifier indicated as 26C in Fig. 7, the face of the body 28 has a plurality of openings 38, instead of just one as the intensifier 26. In this fourth preferred embodiment, there are nine openings generally circulars 38, arranged in a three-by-three arrangement. The openings 38 could have some other shape, and there could be fewer or more than nine such openings. Individual sensors can be provided for each opening, or a single sensor can be provided with the openings providing multiple accesses for the single sensor. In place of openings 38, windows of similar shape, size, and arrangement can be provided. These windows would preferably be like window 36, described above. Otherwise, the 26C intensifier is preferably like the 26 intensifier, and the other parts of a headset and physiological sensor incorporating the 26C intensifier are similar to the combination of headset and physiological sensor 20.
    [0035] [0035] According to a fifth preferred embodiment of the intensifier indicated as 26D in Fig. 8, the face of the body 28 has a plurality of windows 40, instead of just like the intensifier 26A. In this fifth preferred embodiment, there are nine generally rectangular windows 40, arranged in a three-by-three arrangement. Windows 40 could have some other shape, and there could be fewer or more than nine such windows. Individual sensors can be provided for each window, or a single sensor can be provided with the windows providing multiple accesses for the single sensor. Instead of windows 40, openings of similar shape, size, and arrangement
    [0036] [0036] According to a sixth preferred embodiment of the intensifier indicated as 26E in Fig. 9, the body 28 is shown with a loudspeaker 22 completely arranged in it, and aligned with the sound tube 30. Fig. 9 illustrates that even where the loudspeaker is completely contained in the 26E intensifier, there is adequate space in the intensifier to accommodate a physiological sensor 32.
    [0037] [0037] According to a seventh preferred embodiment of the intensifier indicated as 26F in Figs. 10-12, the lower edge 44 of the intensifier 26F has a physiological sensor 32A and the rear edge 46 of the intensifier has a physiological sensor 32B. A sweat management system 48 can be provided at the bottom of intensifier 26F to either redirect or absorb sweat to reduce interference with sensors 32A and 32B.
    [0038] [0038] As shown in Fig. 11, the intensifier 26F may have a plurality of windows 50 on the rear edge 46, so that the physiological sensor 32B can optically couple to the facing portions facing forward
    [0039] [0039] As shown in Fig. 12, the intensifier 26F can have a plurality of windows 52 on the lower edge 44, so that the physiological sensor 32A can optically couple to the portions facing upwards of the user's ear. In this seventh preferred embodiment, there are six generally circular windows 52, arranged in a two-by-three arrangement. The windows 52 could be of some other shape and size, and there could be fewer or more than six such windows. Individual sensors can be provided for each window, or a single sensor can be provided with the windows providing multiple accesses for the single sensor. The windows 52 can be like the window 36, described above. In place of windows 52, openings of similar shape, size, and arrangement can be provided. These openings would preferably be like the opening 34, described above.
    [0040] [0040] The sweat management system 48 can be provided at the bottom of the 26F intensifier, either to redirect or absorb sweat to reduce interference with sensors 32A and 32B. The sweat delivery system 48 can include a plurality of channels, such as channels 42 discussed above, to conduct sweat away from windows 50 and 52. Alternatively, sweat delivery system 48 can include an absorption material that leads sweat away from windows 50 and 52. The sweat management system 48 can include a reservoir to hold sweat
    [0041] [0041] The 26F intensifier can have physiological sensor 32A and windows 52 and physiological sensor 32B and windows 50, as shown and described, or the intensifier can have only one of physiological sensor 32A and windows 52 or physiological sensor 32B and windows 50. For example, as shown in Figs. 13 and 14, an eighth preferred embodiment of an intensifier 26G includes a physiological sensor 32B adjacent to the rear edge 54. The intensifier 26G has a plurality of windows 56 on the rear edge 54, so that the physiological sensor 32B is optically connected to the facing portion in front of the user’s ear.
    [0042] [0042] According to a ninth preferred embodiment of the intensifier indicated as 26H in Fig. 15, the face of the body 28 has a pillow 58 over a window on the face of the body. The pillow 58 is preferably flexible to engage the surface of the user's ear, and by this engagement provide optical coupling of the sensor, and exclusion of sweat. This pillow 58 can be formed by a gel-filled membrane that is translucent to the optical wavelengths used by the sensor. This pillow 58 may alternatively be a patch of a hydrogel, which when exposed to moisture, such as water or sweat, swells to form a compliant mass translucent to the optical wavelengths used by the sensor. Otherwise, the 26H intensifier is preferably like the 26 intensifier, and the other parts of a headset and physiological sensor incorporating the 26H intensifier are similar to the combination of headset and physiological sensor 20.
