A portable electronic device packaged into a System-in-Package assembly is disclosed. The portable electronic device can include a substrate and a plurality of components mounted on the substrate and included in one or more subsystems. Interference between subsystems or from external sources can be reduced or eliminated by disposing an insulating layer over the components, forming narrow trenches between subsystems, and depositing one or more layers of a multi-layer thin film stack on the insulating layer and filling the trenches. In some examples, the multi-layer thin film stack can include an adhesion layer, a shielding layer, a protection layer, and a cosmetic layer. In some examples, the multi-layer thin film stack can include multi-functional layers such as a protection and cosmetic layer.

A mouth guard senses impact forces and determines if the forces exceed an impact threshold. If so, the mouth guard notifies the user of the risk for injury by haptic feedback, vibratory feedback, and/or audible feedback. The mouth guard system may also remotely communicate the status of risk and the potential injury. The mouth guard uses a local memory device to store impact thresholds based on personal biometric information obtained from the user and compares the sensed forces relative to those threshold values. The mouth guard and its electrical components on the printed circuit board are custom manufactured for the user such that the mouth guard provides a comfortable and reliable fit, while ensuring exceptional performance.

Provided is a liquid metal-based flexible electronic device and a method for preparing a liquid metal-based flexible electronic device, that includes: preparing an Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) plastic model; performing an ion sputtering on a surface of the ABS plastic model to form a gold film, to obtain a gold-plated ABS circuit; introducing a first silica gel into a mold to suspend the gold-plated ABS circuit inside the mold, and curing the first silica gel to obtain a cured model; immersing the cured model in acetone to dissolve the ABS model, to obtain a microchannel with a gold plating on an inner wall of the microchannel in a first silica gel substrate; and injecting a gallium-indium eutectic, inserting a copper wire, and applying a second silica gel and curing the second silica gel, to obtain the liquid metal-based flexible electronic device.
