Abstract
An optical measurement system includes a wearable module assembly configured to be worn on a body of a user. The wearable module assembly includes a plurality of wearable modules and a connecting assembly. Each wearable module includes a light source configured to emit a light pulse toward a target within the body of the user and a plurality of detectors configured to receive photons included in the light pulse after the photons are scattered by the target. The connecting assembly physically and flexibly connects the plurality of wearable modules such that the wearable module assembly is conformable to a three-dimensional (3D) surface of the body of the user when the wearable module assembly is worn on the body of the user.
