The touch sensor comprises a threshold detector configured to distinguish between skin contact with the first and second charge contacts and contact between a conductive material more conductive than skin and the first and second charge contacts.
Open-ear headphone
A flexible arm that is configured to be located between and physically and electrically connect an acoustic module of an open-ear headphone to a battery housing of the open-ear headphone. The flexible arm defines an original resting length and position between the acoustic module and the battery housing. The flexible arm includes a flexible printed circuit that extends through the entire original resting length of the flexible arm and comprises a conductor that is configured to carry electrical energy between the acoustic module and the battery housing. A first interface structure is coupled to one of the acoustic module and the battery housing. A flexible material encases at least some of the flexible printed circuit and at least some of the first interface structure.
Method and apparatus for hearing sounds through vibration
A mouth piece to transmit sound through vibration may include a front portion and a rear portion, which are connected through a connecting unit with each other to form a U-shaped apparatus. In one embodiment, the mouth piece can be disposed traversing the lower lip. More specifically, the front portion is disposed in front of the lower lip and the rear portion is disposed between the lower lip and the gum behind the lower lip, while the connecting unit is located between the upper lip and lower lip. The mouth piece may further include an extending piece extending from the rear portion into the mouth for the upper tooth and lower tooth to bite on.
Using Auxiliary Device Case For Translation
An auxiliary device charging case is used to facilitate translation features of a mobile computing device or auxiliary device. A first user, who may be a foreign language speaker, holds the charging case and speaks into the charging case. The charging case communicates the received speech to the mobile computing device, either directly or through the auxiliary device, which translates the received speech into a second language for a second user, who is the owner of the mobile computing device and auxiliary device. The second user may provide input in the second language, such as by speaking or typing into the auxiliary or mobile computing device. The mobile computing device may translate this second input to the first language, and transmit the translated input to the charging case either directly or through the auxiliary device. The charging case may output the translated second input to the first user, such as through a speaker or display screen.
