  • Publication number: 20230203267
    Abstract: In the present invention, a multi-stage foam sound-absorbing black body material is provided for the first time. A graphene aerogel is introduced into a commercialized polymer foam skeleton by using a solvent plasticizing and foaming technology, so as to embed ultra-thin graphene drums in the foam skeleton. When sound waves enter the foam black body, a large number of graphene drums generate a severe resonance effect, thereby rapidly achieving attenuation of the sound waves, and combined with the friction loss of the porous structure of the polymer foam on the sound waves, excellent sound-absorbing performance is achieved in a wide frequency range. The present solution is provided on the basis of commercialized foam materials, has a simple method, low costs, and the potential of wide industrial application.

  • Patent number: 9448250
    Abstract: Motion sensors of a mobile device mounted to a vehicle are used to detect a mount angle of the mobile device. The motion sensors are used to determine whether the vehicle is accelerating or de-accelerating, whether the vehicle is turning and whether the mount angle of the mobile device is rotating. The mount angle of the mobile device is obtained from data output from the motion sensors and can be used to correct a compass heading. Data from the motion sensors that are obtained while the vehicle is turning or the mobile device is rotating are not used to obtain the mount angle.
