Abstract

A sliding mount for use with a watch band is presented. A sliding mount according to some embodiments includes a device mount; band receivers connected to the device mount, the band receivers capable of receiving a watch band; and sensors mounted on the device mount.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A sliding mount, comprising:
 a device mount configured to receive a device; and   band receivers connected to the device mount, the band receivers capable of receiving a watch band.   
     
     
         2 . The sliding mount of  claim 1 , wherein the device is a watch. 
     
     
         3 . The sliding mount of  claim 1 , wherein the band receivers each include a slot through which the watch band passes. 
     
     
         4 . The sliding mount of  claim 3 , wherein the slot is formed in a side of the band receivers. 
     
     
         5 . The sliding mount of  claim 3 , wherein the slot is formed in a bottom of the band receivers. 
     
     
         6 . The sliding mount of  claim 1 , further including a solid base connected between the device mount and the band receivers to allow the watch band to be positioned between the device mount and the sold base. 
     
     
         7 . The sliding mount of  claim 6 , further including sensors formed in the sold base. 
     
     
         8 . The sliding mount of  claim 7 , wherein the sensors contact a user when the watch band is worn. 
     
     
         9 . The sliding mount of  claim 1 , further including sensor mounts coupled to the band receivers. 
     
     
         10 . The sliding mount of  claim 9 , further including sensors mounted to the sensor mounts. 
     
     
         11 . The sliding mount of  claim 1 , wherein a device inserted into the device mount is electrically coupled to sensors mounted on the sliding mount. 
     
     
         12 . The sliding mount of  claim 1 , further including a cover configured to cover a device mounted on the device mount.
