Lighting devices are described and may include a housing containing a rechargeable battery, a microprocessor, and a plurality of light sources in electronic communication with the rechargeable battery and the microprocessor. At least a portion of the housing may be transparent or translucent, wherein the plurality of light sources face the portion of the housing that is transparent or translucent. The lighting devices may be solar-powered, e.g., including a solar panel coupled to an outer surface of the housing, wherein the solar panel is in electronic communication with the rechargeable battery. The lighting devices herein also include a handle of a malleable material configured to adopt and maintain a variety of positions.

A device case with a strap adapted to allow the user to hold an electronic device with the aid of a strap. The device case is adapted to receive an electronic device, such as a cellular telephone, with a case with rimmed sides that capture the electronic device. The strap may unclip and move along a fixed path, exposing a clip adapted to be received by a clip receiver, such as on a tripod. An attachable device strap adapted to be adhesively fastened to the back side of an electronic device, such as a cellular telephone, or to the back side of a case holding a cellular telephone. The strap may unclip and move along a fixed path, exposing a clip adapted to be received by a clip receiver, such as on a tripod. Accessories such as stands, holders, and lights may be couple to the exposed clip, adding other functionalities to the case system.

Webcam systems and mount assemblies are disclosed that can dispose a camera at or near a middle of computer monitor whereby a user is viewed by the camera from a face-front position, and wherein the position of the camera is vertically and laterally manually adjustable (without tools) to facilitate a variety of positions according to need or desire. The webcam systems and mount assemblies further may be used with any of a tablet computing device, a laptop computer, a free-standing computer monitor, etc., and may be mounted to any edge or an adjacent structure while permitting disposing the camera at or near a center of the monitor.

A support for holding an electronic device, such as a cellular telephone, that attaches to the electronic device with a magnetic connector. The support may have support arms that can grip the electronic device. A magnetic mounting surface may include an annular magnet at its outer area, which is adapted to magnetically hold an electronic device such as a cellular telephone. The support arms may be able to move from a first position perpendicular to the magnetic mounting surface to a second positions parallel to the magnetic mounting surface. The support arms may be extendible from a central portion and this extension may be resisted by internal springs. A cellular telephone may be held within the extended arms to provide gripping support to the telephone. In the parallel configuration, the extendable arms may provide a further mounting surface for stability of the phone on its magnetic mounting surface.

A deployable light for an electronic device, such as a cellular telephone, that attaches to the electronic device with a magnetic connector. The deployable light is adapted to deploy from a stowed position wherein the light may shine in a first direction, to a deployed position wherein the light may shine opposite the first direction. The deployable light may include a magnetic connection portion for attachment to a cellular telephone. The deployable light may provide light when the telephone is using either its forward facing camera or it rearward facing camera.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to mount a camera to a mounting plate, the apparatus comprising: a camera socket connector to connect to a socket of the camera; and a mounting plate connector to connect to the mounting plate, wherein the camera socket connector able to be removably coupled to the mounting plate connector.

A solar radiation mitigation system mountable to a furniture element, the solar radiation mitigation system comprising a panel assembly comprising a first panel capable of blocking a first radiation amount, and a second panel in operational relation with the first panel and detachably connected thereto, the second panel being capable of blocking a second radiation amount, wherein the panel assembly blocks a combined radiation amount greater than the first and second radiation amounts when the first and second panels are in operational relation, at least one adjustable arm comprising a distal arm connector connected to the first panel, a proximal arm connector being detachably attachable to the furniture element for mounting the system to the furniture element, and an elongated member extending from the proximal arm connector to the distal arm connector, the elongated member being adjustable to position and orient the first panel with respect to the furniture element.
