Abstract: Provided is a microphone compatibility device comprising a sensor that detects a voltage along a conductive path between a microphone and at least one electronic device and a current control device that draws current for permitting microphone detection by each of a first electronic device and a second electronic device. The second electronic device has a lower current draw requirement than the first electronic device.

Abstract: A plate attached to the back shell of an earphone includes an exit cavity corresponding in dimension to and aligned with a first opening through the back shell. A channel in the bottom surface of the plate begins at a point aligned with a second opening through the back shell and ends at an aperture through a side wall of the exit cavity. The channel and the outer surface of the back shell together form a reactive acoustic port from a back cavity enclosed by the back shell to the exit cavity, the first opening through the shell forms a resistive acoustic port from the back cavity to the exit cavity, and the exit cavity couples the reactive acoustic port and the resistive acoustic port to free space without introducing additional acoustic impedance. In some examples, a water-resistant screen covers the upper aperture of the exit cavity.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes accessing data associated with one or more source logs. The data associated with the source logs corresponds to activity of a user at a particular time. The method also includes identifying the user and a device associated with the source logs; and mapping at least a portion of the data associated with the source logs to a user session associated with the user and the device. The user session corresponds to activity of the user while using the device. The information also includes providing data corresponding to a particular period of time based on the user session. The data corresponds to the particular period of time includes streaming content and geographic data captured during the particular period of time.

Abstract: Methods and systems for distribution and management of streamable data are provided. Streamable data may be pushed out to one or more target client devices from a source device. Streamable data may be pulled from a source device by a client device. A device receiving a command to receive or transmit data may accept, dismiss, ignore, or deny the command. Annotation content may be generated in relation to the streamable data; such annotations may be transmitted concurrently with transmission of the related streamable data. Commands, transmissions, annotations, and metadata may be stored in an archive for later access or review. Data stored in the archive may be processed and converted to a different format in order to further analyze the data, determine statistics, and detect trends.

Abstract: A guide for a hand held power saw comprises two extruded light alloy rails spaced apart by cross-pieces such that the spacing between rails may be adjusted to suit the saw to be used.The guide may be applied directly to a sheet to be cut by the saw or spaced above a work table to enable timber to cut square or mitre cut to length.
