  • Patent number: 12160698
    Abstract: Portable ear-worn acoustic devices having a wingtip anchor for improved anchoring for active users and to accommodate a wide range of ear sizes and shapes are provided herein. Such acoustic devices an include an earbud device body and a wingtip anchor that extends from an outer face of the device body. The wingtip anchor can include a base portion and a protruding portion that extends upwards and is angled or curved inwardly so as to engage the upper concha of the ear. The wingtip anchor can be flexible so that engagement of a distal portion of the anchor exerts an inwardly directed spring force on the device body to maintain the earbud device body within the ear. Such acoustic devices can further include a multi-function button that is integrated with the wingtip anchor such that the base portion of the wingtip anchor is a faceplate for the multi-function button.

  • Publication number: 20230299843
    Abstract: Conventionally, software-based services that utilize satellites are manually and painstakingly configured, provisioned, activated, and calibrated, because the complexity and variability of satellite links prevent automated and scalable service orchestration. Accordingly, systems and processes are disclosed for automated and scalable orchestration of services that utilize satellite links. In response to a service request, comprising a service definition for an end-to-end service, parameter(s) of a satellite link that satisfies the service definition may be calculated. These parameter(s) may be used to select a configuration for a satellite-network service chain, comprising a plurality of virtual network functions, from a service catalog. The satellite-network service chain may then be instantiated, within a cloud infrastructure, using the selected configuration.
