  • Publication number: 20170233217
    Abstract: Cable-management systems can hold a speaker device and can hold at least a portion of an electrical cable of the speaker device. In some embodiments, a cable-management system includes a housing having an upper portion and a lower portion separated by at least one upward-facing surface configured to vertically support the speaker device. The upward-facing surface can be a ledge or a wall that stretches all the way across a cylindrical cable management system. The upper portion can hold the speaker device while the lower portion holds the electrical cable. The electrical cable can be wrapped around a post of the housing such that the cable is hidden inside the cable management system.

  • Publication number: 20170238076
    Abstract: Speaker protection systems can be configured to protect audio speakers from falls. In some embodiments, systems include a bottom cap coupled to a bottom portion of the speaker device. Systems can also include a top cap coupled to a top portion of the speaker device. The top cap can cover part of a top surface of the speaker device such that the top cap is configured to resist downward dislodgement of the top cylindrical cap. The top cap can be rotatably coupled to the bottom cap. Embodiments can enable variable shock absorption with resistance to deformation that increases as the magnitude of the deformation increases. This approach can maximize odds of speakers “surviving” falls from substantial heights.

  • Publication number: 20170208945
    Abstract: Shelf systems can be configured to couple an electronic device to a wall. In some embodiments, shelf systems include a base having a backside configured to face inward towards the wall and a frontside configured to face outward away from the wall. Shelf systems can also include a first sidewall and a second sidewall that are coupled to the base, protrude away from the wall, and help secure the electronic device to the base. In several embodiments, a level is configured to indicate a horizontal condition of the shelf.

  • Patent number: 9707156
    Abstract: People can damage their medicines by taking them outside in hot or cold weather. On the other hand, some people need to carry their medicines with them wherever they go (even if the weather is extremely hot or cold). Specially constructed storage systems can protect medicines from damage due to hot and cold weather without requiring bulky structures or expensive components that consume electricity to regulate temperature.

  • Publication number: 20170150620
    Abstract: Mounting systems can be configured to couple an electronic device to a wall. In some embodiments, mounting systems include a base having a backside configured to face inward towards the wall and a frontside configured to face outward away from the wall. Mounting systems can also include a first sidewall and a second sidewall that are coupled to the base, protrude away from the wall, and help secure the electronic device to the base. In several embodiments, protrusions help secure the electronic device to the mounting system.

  • Patent number: 9646356
    Abstract: Self-driving vehicles have unlimited potential to learn and predict human behavior and perform actions accordingly. Several embodiments described herein enable a self-driving vehicle to monitor human activity and predict when and where the human will be located and whether the human needs a ride from the self-driving vehicle. Self-driving vehicles will be able to perform such tasks with incredible efficacy and accuracy that will allow self-driving vehicles to proliferate at a much faster rate than would otherwise be the case.

  • Patent number: 9543082
    Abstract: Mounting systems can couple a remote control to a wall, such as a wall of a television. In some embodiments, an adhesive couples the mounting system to the wall. The mounting system can include a clamp configured to secure a cable that charges the remote control. Sliding the remote control into the mounting system can couple the remote control to the cable.

  • Patent number: 9429947
    Abstract: Although self-driving vehicles excel under “normal” driving conditions, they sometimes struggle with new situations that often would not be overly difficult for a person. Several embodiments described herein enable a hybrid approach that leverages the exceptional abilities of self-driving vehicles while soliciting human interaction in select situations. The resulting combination of machine intelligence and human intelligence significantly enlarges the potential of self-driving vehicles in a manner that will enable self-driving vehicles to become widespread much faster than would otherwise be the case.
