Abstract: Optical assemblies may include a projector assembly, a waveguide, and a mounting mechanism. The projector assembly may be configured for generating an image, and the waveguide may be configured for transmitting the image to a location in front of a user's eye. The mounting mechanism may removably couple the waveguide to an underlying frame. The mounting mechanism may include a detachable coupling, at least one flexure secured to a peripheral edge of the waveguide, and at least one flexure support coupled to the at least one flexure. The flexure support may be removably secured to the detachable coupling by a removable retainer. Various other related systems, methods, and devices are also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention is directed to systems, methods and computer program products for presenting visual information in an automobile. An exemplary system includes a receiving station that receives a mobile device; and a display unit that presents, to a driver or a passenger in the automobile, visual information in response to one or more instructions input to the mobile device. The display unit of the system is separate from the mobile device's display. In some embodiments, the display is a mirror, while, in other embodiments, the display is an electronic display. In some embodiments, the receiving station has the ability to receive mobile devices of a plurality of types.

Abstract: A sliding mechanism comprising a double-folded flexible printed circuit board (FPC); a stiffener coupled to the double-folded FPC; first pins; second pins; and an opening defined by a first cover, wherein when the double-folded FPC and the stiffener move, within the opening, in synchronization along a first range of motion to an open position of the slider mechanism, the stiffener makes contact with the first pins at the open position, and when the double-folded FPC and the stiffener move, within the opening, in synchronization along a second range of motion to a closed position of the slider mechanism, the stiffener makes contact with the second pins at the closed position.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods and computer program products for determining positional data associated with a hand or a finger that interacts with a touch panel device. In some embodiments, a method includes determining, with respect to a touch panel device, positional data associated with a user's first hand that interacts with the touch panel device. Additionally, the method includes creating an image of the user's first hand using the positional data. Additionally, the method includes transmitting the image of the user's first hand to a display device. Additionally, the method includes presenting the image of the user's hand on the display device. Additionally, the method includes identifying a finger of the user's first hand based at least partially on the determining, with respect to a touch panel device, positional data associated with a user's first hand that interacts with the touch panel device.
