  • Patent number: 10299400
    Abstract: Mounting systems can attach electronic devices a wall such as the wall of a television. Electronic devices can general a substantial amount of heat that can be trapped by mounting systems. The mount ventilation systems described herein can allow cool air to flow around electronic devices. A mounting system can include a base configured to hold the electronic device, a first ventilation channel located between a first wall and a second wall of the base, and a second ventilation channel in fluid communication with the first ventilation channel. In some embodiments, the second ventilation channel extends outward from the first ventilation channel such that the second ventilation channel fluidly couples the first ventilation channel with a portion of the mounting system configured to hold the electronic device.

  • Publication number: 20180027207
    Abstract: A power system for a streaming media player can have a cable having a first end and a second end that is opposite the first end. The first end of the cable can be arranged and configured to receive power from a power limited USB power source. The power system can also include an electronic circuit electrically coupled to the cable. The electronic circuit can include a supercapacitor arranged and configured to store at least a portion of the power from the USB power source when power demanded by the streaming media player is less than available power from the USB power source and then release at least a portion of stored power when the power demanded by the streaming media player exceeds the available power from the USB power source.
