Patent number: 11962030Abstract: An integrated, unitary battery pack may be formed and used as part of the structural support for a vehicle frame. The unitary battery pack includes arrays cells having all positive and negative electrical terminals aligned in-plane on a common face of the product assembly. The unitary battery pack includes cooling components for passively or actively cooling the cell arrays. The unitary battery pack is encased in a potting material that allows that forms part of the structure support for the unitary battery pack. The unitary batter pack may be integrated into the vehicle with or without additional support structures.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2020Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Tesla, Inc.Inventors: Andrew Pires, Robert David Sumpf, Jr., William B.

Publication number: 20240015439Abstract: Examples described herein relate to transitioning a playback session between portable playback devices such as “smart” headphones, earbuds, and handheld speakers with playback devices of a zone-based media playback system. Exemplary techniques facilitate continuity of playback when transitioning between locations (e.g., from at home to on-the-go or vice versa) or between listening paradigms (e.g., personal or out-loud playback of audio content). An example implementation includes detecting a swap trigger, determining the source playback device(s) and target playback device(s), and performing a playback session swap between the source playback device(s) and target playback device(s).Type: ApplicationFiled: July 12, 2023Publication date: January 11, 2024Inventors: Dayn Wilberding, Youjin Nam, Tadeo T. Toulis, Jonathan Cole Harris, Patrick Devine, Nicholas A.J.

Publication number: 20230259326Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices (e.g., audio playback devices) configured to transmit and/or receive wireless power. Wireless power can be transferred using mid-range or long-range techniques, such as electromagnetic radiation (e.g., lasers, microwaves) or electromagnetic coupling (e.g., inductive coupling, capacitive coupling). Device performance and/or power transmission may be modified dynamically based on wireless power levels, user behavior, the behavior of other devices, device grouping, or other parameters.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2023Publication date: August 17, 2023Inventors: Nicholas D'Amato, Chadwick Souza, Jonathan Cole Harris

Publication number: 20230008591Abstract: Systems and methods for providing spatial audio are disclosed herein. In one example, the method includes receiving a first position of a first playback device relative to a user in a listening environment; receiving a second position of a second playback device relative to the user in the listening environment; transmitting, to a media content provider, location data corresponding to the first and second positions; receiving, from the media content provider, virtual media audio content associated with a virtual environment, the virtual media audio content comprising first and second audio signals generated based on the transmitted location data, wherein the generated first and second audio signals include one or more audio cues configured to enable the user to spatially perceive a location of a virtual object within the listening environment; and playing back the first audio signal via the first playback device in synchrony with playing back the second audio signal via the second playback device.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2022Publication date: January 12, 2023Inventors: Jonathan Cole Harris, Jeffrey Michael Torgerson

Publication number: 20220343935Abstract: Example techniques described herein involve a media playback system of one or more playback devices that are operable in a plurality of modes. Operating in a given mode may enhance a use case corresponding to the mode. For instance, the plurality of modes may include a foreground mode, which may enhance active listening to the playback device. The plurality of modes may also include a background mode, which may enhance passive listening to the playback device by facilitating other activities during passive listening. In some example implementations, the plurality of modes are non-contemporary; when operating in one mode, the playback device will not be operating in the other modes, and vice versa.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2022Publication date: October 27, 2022Inventors: Jonathan Cole Harris, Dayn Wilberding, Paul Andrew Bates
