Woven irrigation tubing
Woven irrigation tubing comprising a woven, extrusion coated & laminated tube formed of a high density polyethylene (HDPE) outer layer, a low density polyethylene (LDPE) middle layer and a linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) inner layer. The finished tubing is treated for ultraviolet resistance. The tubing is tied off at a distal end with a proximal end connected to a pressurized irrigation source. Watering holes are created in the tubing at spaced intervals and the resulting water streams are directed into parallel plowed furrows. The tubing is completely recyclable. The tubing is formed by manufacturing tape for the woven outer tubing cover, stretching the tape along its length to strengthen it, weaving the outer layer from the tape, flattening the woven outer layer, extrusion coating each surface of the outer layer with LDPE, laminating the LLDPE inner layer to the LDPE, reversing and winding the tubing for storage and distribution.

OPW airbag
An OPW airbag having warp and weft threads woven together in at least three woven fabric layers: a lower fabric layer, an upper fabric layer, and a middle fabric layer therebetween. The weft threads of the middle fabric layer emerge from the middle fabric layer in a first partial region of the airbag and are tied partially to the upper fabric layer and partially to the lower fabric layer. The warp threads of the middle fabric layer emerge from the middle fabric layer in the first partial region of the airbag and float freely between the lower fabric layer and the upper fabric layer. The weft and warp threads of the middle fabric layer are incorporated into the lower fabric layer or into the upper fabric layer in a second partial region of the airbag or are tied to the lower or upper fabric layer at a few attachment points.

Engineered materials and methods of forming
A method of forming a substrate includes mapping a three dimensional spatial distribution of at least one structural protein fiber of extracellular matrix of biological material of interest, designing a fiber assembly pattern based on an intrinsic pattern of the at least one structural protein fiber of the extracellular matrix of the biological material, and assembling fibers based on the fiber assembly pattern to form the substrate.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR A FRAME, SHROUD, AND FACE MASK FOR A HEAD MOUNTED DISPLAY DEVICE
An extended reality (XR) head-mounted display (HMD) device may include a processor, a memory device, a power management unit, an HMD video display to present to a user an extended reality image of an environment, and an HMD housing fitted to be formed around a user's eyes. The HMD housing includes an HMD shield, an HMD hood comprising a fabric shroud operatively coupled to a shroud frame and a face mask operatively coupled to the shroud frame to interface with a suer's face and the HMD hood operatively coupled to the HMD shield.
Suture-free stent grafts and stent graft constructs with integrated extensions and methods for forming
A suture-free stent graft is disclosed including a woven graft tube having woven extensions extending from an outer face of the woven graft tube. Each of the woven extensions is integrally woven with the woven graft tube such that warp from the woven graft tube is de-interlaced from at a first end and re-interlaced at a second end. Supplemental warp is interlaced into the woven graft tube in replacement of the deinterlaced warp so as to maintain weave density in the woven graft tube under the woven extensions. The woven extensions and portions of the woven graft tube disposed directly under the woven extension have independent weft from one another. A suture-free stent graft construct is disclosed including the suture-free stent graft and at least one stent wire disposed about the suture-free stent graft, at least partially disposed between the woven graft tube and the woven extensions at securement sites.

Stretchable signal path structures for electronic devices
A stretchable fabric signal path may include a conductive strand located between first and second outer fabric layers. The outer fabric layers may be formed from intertwined strands of elastic material. The conductive strand may have a wavy shape to accommodate stretching of the stretchable fabric signal path. First and second inner fabric layers may be located between the outer stretchable fabric layers. The inner fabric layers may be formed from intertwined strands of non-elastic material. The inner fabric layers may have strands that are intertwined with the outer fabric layers to serve as anchor points for maintaining the shape of the conductive strand as the stretchable fabric signal path expands and contracts. The outer fabric layers and inner fabric layers may be woven. The conductive strand may convey electrical signals such as audio signals, power signals, data signals, or other suitable signals.
