  • Patent number: 11469489
    Abstract: An electrically small antenna operable in both single-ended and differential antenna systems, and corresponding circuitry configurations, is provided. The antenna may be arranged on or in a wearable audio device, such as an earbud. The antenna may include a first curved arm electrically coupled to a first port. The antenna may include a second curved arm of equal size and equal shape as the first curved arm and electrically coupled to a second port. The second curved arm may be rotationally positioned 180 degrees, relative to the first curved arm, about an imaginary axis perpendicular to a surface of the wearable audio device. The single-ended antenna system may include a radio frequency integrated circuit (“RFIC”), fixed matching network, a tuneable capacitor, and a switching circuit. The differential antenna system may include an RFIC, fixed matching network, a tuneable capacitor, and a balun.

  • Patent number: 10998611
    Abstract: An antenna assembly includes a radio frequency (RF) connector connected to a first end of a coaxial cable and a wire antenna attached to a second end of the coaxial cable. The wire antenna may be made of a shape memory alloy, such as nitinol. Examples of RF connectors include U.FL, IFEX, WAX, IPX, AMC, MHF and UMCC connectors that allow the wire antenna to be removably attached to a printed circuit board (PCB) of a lighting control device and to avoid hardwiring the antenna to the PCB. The device that includes the antenna assembly may be incorporated into a luminaire for wireless control of the luminaire. The lighting control device may be installed within the luminaire, such that the wire antenna is positioned between a light source and a diffuser. A number of such luminaires may be combined to provide an intelligent lighting system.

  • Patent number: 10075003
    Abstract: Examples of methods and devices provide a charge level indication of a removable power source of a lighting control device. An example method may include receiving an input indication. A duration of the input is measured. If the measured duration exceeds a predetermined input duration threshold, an indication of a charge level of a removable power supply is obtained. The obtained charge level indication is compared, by a control unit, to a threshold charge level of the power supply. The threshold charge level is indicates an amount of charge remaining in the power supply. In response to a comparison result, an indicator light signal is applied to an indicator light. An example device may include a removable electrical power supply, an input device, an indicator light, and a control unit all of which may cooperate to perform a disclosed method.

  • Publication number: 20160270997
    Abstract: A mobility or walking aid (WA) comprising an exoskeleton, a control system for controlling movement of the exoskeleton, and a power source for providing power to the exoskeleton and the associated control system. The WA system may be configured as a fully supportive system to assist a paraplegic user for example, or as a partially or fully supportive system to assist in the rehabilitation of a user with limited mobility. When a mobility impaired user is secured to the WA, the user is caused to move their joints and muscles through motions of walking, thereby assisting in the prevention of deterioration of a user's physiology. The WA is provided with various user customisable features and safety mechanisms including leg length adjustments, foot member adjustments, user size calibration and mechanical safety stop configuration.
