Abstract
In an illustrative embodiment, a wearable auricular stimulator includes a flexible body adapted to be worn at least partially around an auricle of a wearer, including an exterior for positioning in contact with a wearer's skin, and an interior for supporting a three-dimensional (3D) circuitry layout, including traces deposited on surfaces of the interior of the flexible body, electrodes for delivering electrical stimulation therapy to the wearer via a skin-facing side of the flexible body, and electronic component(s) electrically connected with the electrodes and the traces, the electronic components including a processing circuitry element for delivering electrical stimulation treatment(s) via the electrodes.
