主权项

1. A wearable computing device comprising: a device body with a body portion communication interface; a removable face portion with a face portion communication interface removably and operatively couplable to the body portion communication interface; a display provided upon the removable face portion; and a processor operatively coupled to the display; at least one sensor provided on the face portion, the at least one sensor operatively coupled to the processor; wherein at least one of the face portion and a bezel is rotatable relative to the device body; and wherein based on an input provided via a user interface displayed on the display the processor is configured to transmit at least one rotate signal to an actuator, the actuator comprising a motor engaged with a gear of the face portion or the bezel, the at least one rotate signal causing the bezel to rotate between a first angle and at least one second angle, and to transmit at least one capture signal to the image sensor, the at least one capture signal causing the image sensor to record an image when the bezel is rotated to each of the first angle and the at least one second angle.
