Abstract

In this demo, we present OpenEarable 2.0, an open-source earphone platform designed to provide an interactive exploration of physiological ear sensing and the development of AI applications. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore real-time sensor data and understand the capabilities of OpenEarable 2.0’s sensing components. OpenEarable 2.0 integrates a rich set of sensors, including two ultrasound-capable microphones (inward/outward), a 3-axis ear canal accelerometer/bone conduction microphone, a 9-axis head inertial measurement unit, a pulse oximeter, an optical temperature sensor, an ear canal pressure sensor, a microSD slot, and a microcontroller. Participants will be able to try out the web-based dashboard and mobile app for real-time control and data visualization. Furthermore, the demo will show different applications and real-time data based on OpenEarable 2.0 across physiological sensing and health monitoring, movement and activity tracking, and human-computer interaction.
