Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a wearable electronic device. The wearable electronic device includes a frame containing a front portion configured to rest over a nose of a user, a first arm configured to rest over an ear of the user. The wearable electronic device also includes a first hinge connecting the front portion and the first arm. The first hinge includes an interior portion that houses a wire connected to a first electronic component in the front portion and a second electronic component in the first arm. The first hinge also includes an exterior portion that hides the wire during rotation of the first arm about the first hinge between a folded position and an unfolded position.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for performing on/off detection in a wearable electronic device. Upon detecting a set of measurements indicating unfolding of one or more arms in the wearable electronic device, the system initiates a power-on sequence comprising a powering of electronic components in the wearable electronic device from a battery in the wearable electronic device. Upon detecting a first set of subsequent measurements indicating placement of the wearable electronic device on a head of a user, the system generates output indicating a powered state in the wearable electronic device.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a wearable electronic device. The wearable electronic device includes a frame containing a first arm configured to rest over an ear of a user. The wearable electronic device also includes a bone conduction unit disposed within the first arm at a position that contacts a head of the user. The bone conduction unit includes a bone conduction transducer and a suspension that isolates at least one surface of the bone conduction transducer from contacting the frame. The suspension includes a first attachment point that is attached to a side of the bone conduction transducer and a second attachment point that is attached to the first arm.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a data processing system comprises: a power distribution circuit that is configured to distribute electrical power to one or more network devices; a microcontroller; data transceiving logic that is configured to establish connectivity with the one or more network devices and the power distribution apparatus; receive a first data stream from a first network device; generate a combined signal by combining the first data stream with a power signal into the combined signal; one or more ports that are configured to transmit the combined signal to the one or more network devices.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a head-mounted device. The head-mounted device includes a sensing apparatus, which contains a first infrared emitter and a second infrared emitter positioned below the first infrared emitter, wherein the first and second infrared emitters alternate emission of infrared pulses at an eye of a user. The sensing apparatus also includes a first infrared detector that produces a first measurement of a reflection of the infrared pulses from the eye of the user. The head-mounted device also includes a processing apparatus that analyzes the first measurement from the first infrared detector to characterize an eyelid movement of the user.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for preventing infection propagation in a DMVPN is presented. An infected spoke router site is isolated from the DMVPN network such that the spoke router may (bi-directionally) completely or partially limit communicating with any network devices (including the hub router, any other spoke routers etc.) within the DMVPN which prevents the DMVPN melt-down, isolates a worm-infected spoke router site from the rest of the DMVPN and restricts the spread of the worm within the DMVPN network.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to facilitate the distribution of audio signals over wireless networks. In one implementation, an audio system includes a head end having an encoder and a wireless network interface. Audio signals associated with a plurality of audio channels are processed by the encoder to provide an encoded signal in accordance with an audio codec. The encoded signal can be provided to a wireless network by the wireless network interface as a plurality of data packets associated with a network address in accordance with a wireless networking protocol, such as an IEEE 802.11 protocol. One or more remote endpoints can also be provided to receive the data packets from the wireless network, assemble the data packets to obtain the encoded signal, and extract at least one of the audio signals from the encoded signal in accordance with the audio codec. Multicast and unicast implementations are also provided.
