  • Patent number: 11923272
    Abstract: Some embodiments include a method of forming an integrated assembly. Semiconductor material is patterned into a configuration which includes a set of first upwardly-projecting structures spaced from one another by first gaps, and a second upwardly-projecting structure spaced from the set by a second gap. The second gap is larger than the first gaps. Conductive material is formed along the first and second upwardly-projecting structures and within the first and second gaps. First and second segments of protective material are formed over regions of the conductive material within the second gap, and then an etch is utilized to pattern the conductive material into first conductive structures within the first gaps and into second conductive structures within the second gap. Some embodiments include integrated assemblies.

  • Patent number: 11826637
    Abstract: This application discloses mobile device accessories that can be used to facilitate mobile gaming. Systems of the inventive subject matter have two grips and a middle portion that make it easier for users to hold a mobile device. The middle portion can include wireless charging capabilities to transfer power to a mobile device having wireless charging capabilities. Embodiments include a battery pack that can be swapped, and battery packs can additionally include wireless charging capabilities. Systems of the inventive subject matter improve mobile gaming by reducing reliance on batteries that are built in to mobile devices and improving easy-of-use through wireless charging.

  • Patent number: 11405713
    Abstract: Headsets of the inventive subject matter are configured to stand freely on an outer surface of an earcup, and they incorporate wireless charging in one or more earcups so that the headset can be wirelessly charged while resting on an outer surface of an earcup. To make this charging configuration possible, one or more holding mechanisms are implemented to couple one or both of the fork bodies (e.g., the structure to which an earcup is coupled) to the headband of a headset. Holding mechanisms of the inventive subject matter prevent the headset from toppling over while charging due to rotation of the headband relative to the earcup that the headset is resting on.
