1. A wearable physiological device comprising:
a head assembly comprising a first housing assembly and a second housing assembly removably coupled to each other,
the first housing assembly comprising:
a first housing body;
a first circuit assembly removably coupled to the first housing body; and
a user interface assembly communicatively connected to the first circuit assembly, the second housing assembly comprising:
a second housing body;
a second circuit assembly removably coupled to the second housing body, the second circuit assembly comprising a set of physiological sensors for measuring physiological signals from a user wearing the wearable physiological device;
a removable battery disposed on the second circuit assembly; and
a flexible connector communicatively connecting the second circuit assembly to the first circuit assembly, the flexible connector having a first end and a second end, the first end of the flexible connector disposed between the removable battery and the second circuit assembly, the second end of the flexible connector disposed between the removable battery and the first circuit assembly,
wherein the physiological signals are communicable from the second circuit assembly to the user interface assembly via the flexible connector.
