CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION [0001] This application i a nonprovisional and claims the benet under 35 USC. § 119(e) of US. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/299,864, fled Jun. 14,2022, the contents ‘of which are incorporated herein by relerence as if fully disclosed here, TECHNICAL FIELD, 10002] Embodiments described herein generally relate 8 wearable electronic deviee for measuring biological signal parameters from a user. BACKGROUND 10003] Brain activity can be monitored using electrodes placed on the sealp of @ use. The electrodes may in some ‘cases be placed inside or around the outer ear of the user Measuring ofthe brain sctvity using electrodes placed in or ‘round the outer ear may be prefered due to benefits such as reduced device mobility and decreased visibility of the ‘electrodes when compared to other devices that require ‘electrodes to be placed on visible areas around the scalp of the user. However, for accurate meaturements of by activity using an ear-eleetoencephalography (FEG) device the ear FBG device may need to be customized fora user's ‘ear (¢., possibly customized for the user's concha, ear ‘canal, targus, et.) and may need to be customized differ. ‘ently for diffrent user, so thatthe electrodes placed on the ‘ear FEG device may remain in continuous eontaet with a user's body, Because an eats size and shape vary from one user to another, and because a single user's ear size and shape, and size and shape of structures such asa users eat ‘canal, may change over time, even a customized eat-FEG. ‘device may fil t© generate accurate measurements at times (or over time). In addition, a customized ear EBG device may’ be expensive. SUMMARY, [0008] | Fmbodimentsaspects described! herein generally relate to a wearable electronic devioe for measuring biosig- nals ofa user. The device may have more eletrodes than are necessary fo measure the Biosignals fora given user, and the ‘device may dynamically select a subset of the electrodes for measuring the biosignals for a given user at @ given time. The device may dynamically select dierent subsets of the ‘elecirdes for measuring the biosignals for different users oF at different times (eg, depending on paramoters of the use. how the devices being wom, ambient affects, ee). In some ‘eases, the embodimentvaspects described herein pertain to ‘an earbud andor a headset 10005] In one aspect, a wearable electronic device is described. The wearable electronic device may include housing and an electronic carrier attachod to the housing having @ nonplanar surface. The wearable elotronie device may include a set of electrodes including electrodes posi- tioned at different locations on the nonplanar surface, 2 ‘and a switching circuit. The switching circuit is operable to electrically connect a number of different subsets of one or mone electrodes in the set of electrodes 0 the sensor eireit Jul. 20, 2023 [0006] In a second aspect, a wearable electronic device is described. The weanbe electronic device may include housing, @ set of ative electrodes, and a set of reference clecirdes, The sels of active und reference electrodes are
