A design system generates a design for an in-ear device customized for a user. The in-ear device produces audio content for the user. The design system captures anthropometric data of the user. Using machine learning techniques, the design system determines features of an ear of the user from the anthropometric and generates a three dimensional (3D) geometry of the user's ear. A design for the in-ear device is generated based on the 3D geometry of the user's ear and includes a shell configured to fit in at least a portion of an ear canal of the user.

A personal acoustic system and flexible mount for the same are disclosed. The flexible mount is comprised of an elastomeric material. The personal acoustic system further includes a band comprising a first mount and an earpiece comprising a second mount. An acoustic element is housed within the earpiece. The elastomeric mount is positioned intermediate the first mount and the second mount to flexibly connect the band to the earpiece.

An acoustically-sealed electronic device assembly comprising a first housing component, a second component, and a sealing element. The first housing component may have a locking element. The second component may have a threaded channel extending at least partially along a perimeter of the second component. The threaded channel may be sized to receive the locking element. The sealing element may be positioned at an interface between the first housing component and the second component. The locking element of the first housing component may be moved from a first non-engaged position to a second engaged position within the threaded channel of the second component. The sealing element may be compressed by the first housing component and the second component to form an acoustic seal at the interface.

A computing device is described that obtains a representation of a target ear canal of a user. Using a machine-learned model that has been trained based at least in part on representations of previously fabricated ear-wearable devices, the computing device generates a representation of an ear-wearable device for the target ear canal.

A method and a device for reducing noise of a wireless-earphone, a wireless-earphone and a computer-readable storage medium are provided. In the method, a first electromagnetic signal from a slave earphone is received, and the first electromagnetic signal is converted to an audio signal. The first electromagnetic signal is obtained by a coil inducing an audio signal acquired by a microphone in the slave earphone. A to-be-denoised earphone is determined based on audio signals acquired by microphones in the earphones. It is determined whether an audio signal acquired by a microphone in the to-be-denoised earphone has a voice feature. Noise reduction processing is performed on the audio signal acquired by the microphone in the to-be-denoised earphone by using a filter in a case that the audio signal acquired by the microphone in the to-be-denoise earphone has the voice feature.

A wearable device including a body having one or more embedded electronic components, the body further including a thermoset material having a polymeric backbone with at least one urethane linkage and a glass transition temperature. At a first temperature that is lower than the glass transition temperature, the body has an original shape. When the body is heated to a second temperature that is higher than the glass transition temperature, the body is deformable from the original shape to a first shape and when the body is cooled to a third temperature that is lower than the glass transition temperature, the first shape is maintained. The body is further configured to transition from the first shape to the original shape when the body is heated from the third temperature to a fourth temperature that is higher than the glass transition temperature.

Ear cushion assemblies, and headphones incorporating ear cushion assemblies, the ear cushion assembly including an ear cushion coupled to a mounting plate, where the mounting plate defines plural openings for a passage of sound, and defines plural openings for fasteners; and where the ear cushion grips an outer circumference of the mounting plate to form an annular, circumferentially-fixed, and substantially airtight sealing surface.

A headphone ear pad system may generate a custom ear pad from a three-dimensional data set of a user. The custom ear pad is attach to a headphone housing and is subsequently used to form an acoustic coupling with an ear of the user and an acoustic driver of the headphone housing. The custom ear pad can have a customized cross-sectional shape and sealing surface to create an optimized acoustic profile for the user.

An in-ear listening device having a device housing including a speaker housing and an elongated tube protruding away from the speaker housing, an audio port formed through the speaker housing, a speaker disposed in the speaker housing and aligned to emit sound through the audio port, a microphone port formed through the elongated tube, a microphone disposed in the elongated tube and operatively coupled to receive sound through the microphone port, a rechargeable battery and a wireless antenna disposed within the device housing, wireless circuitry coupled to the wireless antenna and configured to input and output radio frequency signals for wireless communications, a user-interface touch control disposed on the device housing and operable to control a function of the earbud, and battery charging circuitry coupled to the rechargeable battery and positioned within the device housing and operable to charge the rechargeable battery when coupled to receive power from an external power source.

Wireless data network access architecture and methods enabling location-specific and/or user-specific provision of services or resources. In one embodiment, an end-user device makes a request for service within a wireless LAN (WLAN). A wireless access point (WAP) controller/policy server determines whether the user device meets criteria for a first user status or a second user status, and assigns the appropriate status to an identifier of the end-user device. When the user device is assigned the first user status, the user device is provided network access according to e.g., a first permissible bandwidth allocation. Otherwise, the user device is provided network access according to a second, different bandwidth allocation. The first and second user status may be assigned based on a location of the user device within e.g., a venue, a class of end-user device, end user application, an access pass associated with the user device, or yet other criteria.
