`Claim/Element
`Claim 12
`A user-worn device configured to noninvasively measure a physiological
`parameter of a user, the user-worn device comprising:
`at least three light emitting diodes (LEDs);
`at least three photodiodes arranged on an interior surface of the user-worn
`device and configured to receive light attenuated by tissue of the user;
`a protrusion arranged over the interior surface, the protrusion comprising a
`convex surface and
`a plurality of openings extending through the protrusion and positioned over
`the three photodiodes,
`the openings each comprising an opaque lateral surface, the plurality of
`openings configured to allow light to reach the photodiodes, the opaque lateral
`surface configured to avoid light piping through the protrusion; and
`one or more processors configured to receive one or more signals from the
`photodiodes and calculate a measurement of the physiological parameter of the
`user.
`The user-worn device of Claim 1, wherein the convex surface of the protrusion
`is an outermost surface configured to contact the tissue of the user and
`conform the tissue into a concave shape.

`Claim/Element
`Claim 22
`[19 Preamble] A user-worn device configured to non-invasively measure an oxygen
`saturation of a user, the user worn device comprising:
`a plurality of emitters configured to emit light, each of the emitters
`comprising at least two light emitting diodes (LEDs);
`four photodiodes arranged within the user-worn device and configured to
`receive light after at least a portion of the light has been attenuated by tissue
`of the user;
`a protrusion comprising a convex surface including separate openings
`extending through the protrusion and lined with opaque material, each
`opening positioned over a different one of the four photodiodes, the opaque
`material configured to reduce an amount of light reaching the photodiodes
`without being attenuated by the tissue;
`optically transparent material within each of the openings; and
