Sensory earables are increasingly becoming a mainstream compute platform with a promise to fundamentally transform personal-scale human sensing applications. Over the past few years, a number of research efforts in the ubiquitous computing domain have sought to achieve useful, engaging, and sometimes ambitious behavioural analytics with sensory earables including studies of the human face; of emotion and stress; continuous monitoring of cardiovascular function; oxygen consumption and blood flow; and trackin
eSense is a multi-sensory earable platform for personal-scale behavioural analytics research. It is a True Wireless Stereo (TWS) earbud augmented with a 6-axis inertial motion unit, a microphone, and dual mode Bluetooth (Bluetooth Classic and Bluetooth Low Energy). eSense is built with a custom-designed 15 × 15 × 3 mm PCB and composed of a Qualcomm CSR8670, a dual-mode Bluetooth audio system-on-chip (SoC) with a microphone per earbud; a InvenSense MPU6500 six-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) including a
