Wearable Devices Receives U.S. Patent Grant for Biometric User Authentication
in Gesture and Voice-Controlled Interface Device
New continuation patent protects the ability to authenticate users
from their unique biological signals, unlocking secure payments, user detection, and authorized actions
Yokneam Illit, Israel, Aug. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wearable Devices
Ltd. (Nasdaq: WLDS, WLDSW) (“Wearable Devices” or the “Company”), a technology growth company specializing in
artificial intelligence (“AI”)-powered touchless sensing wearables, today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark
Office (USPTO) has granted a new continuation patent in its foundational patent family titled “Gesture and Voice-Controlled Interface
Device.”
This continuation patent significantly strengthens the Company’s
intellectual property portfolio by covering technologies relating to authentication of users based on combined gesture and unique biological
signals. The granted claims cover a gesture interface device and method that combine gesture sensors with biopotential sensors to record
neural signals when the device is worn. The processor analyzes sensed gestures against a personalized gesture signature and builds a gesture
metric space that clusters gestures of the same user while separating different users, enabling highly accurate user verification.
The technology described in the granted claims may enable powerful
new use cases such as secure payments, user detection, and authorization of sensitive actions, providing a seamless, secure, and intuitive
layer of biometric protection on top of the Company’s hybrid voice-and-gesture control platform.
“Receiving this patent grant marks a major milestone in our journey
to make neural interfaces truly secure and personal,” said Guy Wagner, President and Chief Scientific Officer of Wearable Devices.
“The granted claims cover the combination of gesture recognition with unique biopotential signals to verify that a gesture was performed
by a specific person. We believe this patented approach could become a key feature in future wearables - enabling not only gesture control,
but also user authentication, and positions Wearable Devices’ patent portfolio at the forefront of the next generation of human-computer
interaction.”
This latest patent grant continues Wearable Devices’ IP strategy,
further solidifying its leadership in AI-powered neural input wearables and creating additional barriers to entry for competitors in the
rapidly growing human-computer interaction market.

forward-looking terms such as “believe,” “expect,” “may,” “should,” “could,”
“seek,” “intend,” “plan,” “goal,” “estimate,” “anticipate” or
other comparable terms. For example, we are using forward-looking statements when we discuss the expected benefits of the allowed patent

in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could
cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include,
among others, the following: the trading of our ordinary shares or warrants and the development of a liquid trading market; our ability
to successfully market our products and services; the acceptance of our products and services by customers; our continued ability to pay
operating costs and ability to meet demand for our products and services; the amount and nature of competition from other security and
telecom products and services; the effects of changes in the cybersecurity and telecom markets; our ability to successfully develop new
