1. A wearable module assembly for an optical measurement system, the wearable module assembly comprising:
a first wearable module comprising:
a first light source configured to emit a first light pulse toward a target within a body of a user;
a plurality of first detectors each positioned at a fixed distance from the first light source and each configured to detect a first set of photons included in the first light pulse after the first set of photons are scattered by the target; and
a first housing that houses the first light source and the plurality of first detectors and comprises a substantially hexagonal first surface that faces a surface of the body of the user when the wearable module assembly is worn by the user;
a second wearable module comprising:
a second light source configured to emit a second light pulse toward the target;
a plurality of second detectors each positioned at the fixed distance from the second light source and each configured to detect a second set of photons included in the second light pulse after the second set of photons are scattered by the target; and
a second housing that houses the second light source and the plurality of second detectors and comprises a substantially hexagonal second surface that faces the surface of the body of the user when the wearable module assembly is worn by the user; and
a connector that directly connects the first wearable module and the second wearable module at mutually-facing side surfaces of the first housing and the second housing.
