Abstract

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media including instructions for interpreting facial skin micromovements are disclosed. An example head mountable system includes a housing configured to be worn on a head of a wearer. The head mountable system also includes at least one detector integrated with the housing and configured to receive light reflections from a facial region of the head and to output associated reflection signals. The head mountable system also includes at least one microphone associated with the housing and configured to capture sounds produced by the wearer and to output associated audio signals. The head mountable system also includes and at least one processor in the housing, configured to use both the reflection signals and the audio signals to generate output that corresponds with words articulated by the wearer.
