Light module

A light module includes an optical element and a base on which the optical element is mounted. The optical element has an optical portion which has an optical surface; an elastic portion which is provided around the optical portion such that an annular region is formed; and a pair of support portions which is provided such that the optical portion is sandwiched in a first direction along the optical surface and in which an elastic force is applied and a distance therebetween is able to be changed in accordance with elastic deformation of the elastic portion. The base has a main surface, and a mounting region in which an opening communicating with the main surface is provided. The support portions are inserted into the opening in a state where an elastic force of the elastic portion is applied.

Electronic devices with optical and radio-frequency components

An electronic device may have a display overlapped by an image transport layer such as a coherent fiber bundle or layer of Anderson localization material. The image transport layer may have an input surface that receives an image from the display and a corresponding output surface to which the image is transported. The input surface and output surface may have different shapes. During fabrication of the image transport layer, a peripheral portion of the image transport layer may be laterally indented to form a peripheral recess. Electrical components such as optical and radio-frequency components may be mounted in the recess and may be overlapped by peripheral portions of the image transport layer and/or may be mounted under the display.

A cable management system including a plurality of separably interconnectable clips. Each clip has a plurality of longitudinally extending cells, the cells forming cable channels having open longitudinal ends and an open bottom side, the cable channels arranged side-by-side in a one-dimensional array. Each cell is adapted and configured to receive and retain a corresponding cable of a slightly smaller diameter than that of its cable channel. The clips interconnect in a vertically stacked series to form a clip stack, the one-dimensional cable channel arrays of the clips in the clip stack thus being arrayed vertically to form a two-dimensional cable channel array. Cells without a clip connected below retain corresponding cables with a clearance to permit longitudinal sliding. Cables retained in a clip with a clip connected below are clamped between the cells that retain them and impinging contact regions of a top side of the below clip.
