Abstract: A headset includes a thermal frame disposed within a housing. A printed circuit board (PCB) is thermally coupled to the thermal frame. Heat generated by one or more electrical components on the PCB is transmitted to the thermal frame, which distributes the heat uniformly throughout the headset. A first heat pipe is disposed on a first side of the PCB in contact with at least a portion of the thermal frame, the PCB, and/or an electrical component disposed on the PCB to draw heat from the electrical component, and a second heat pipe is disposed proximate a second side of the PCB and is configured to draw heat from second side of the PCB.

Abstract: A headset includes a thermal frame disposed within a housing. A printed circuit board is thermally coupled to the thermal frame. Heat generated by one or more electrical components on the PCB is transmitted to the thermal frame, which distributes the heat uniformly throughout the headset. The thermal frame provides a substantially rigid structural support to which components are coupled and is configured to transfer thermal energy away from the one or more electrical components of the headset and toward an environment located outside of the housing.

Abstract: A nanocomposite includes one or more graphene-based materials (GMs), a nitrogen-containing polymer (an N-polymer), and elemental sulfur (S). The nanocomposite is suitable for use as a stable, high capacity electrode for rechargeable batteries such as lithium-sulfur (Li—S) batteries. Example methods of fabricating a nanocomposite include the addition of an N-polymer to a dispersion (e.g., an aqueous dispersion) or slurry of GMs mixed with a sulfur sol. The N-polymer can interact strongly with the GMs to form a cross-linked network. In one embodiment, hydrothermal treatment of the aqueous dispersion or slurry is used to melt the sulfur such that it becomes distributed within the network formed by the GMs and the N-polymer. The resulting nanocomposite material can then be processed through the addition of one or more other binders and/or solvents, and formed into a final electrode.

Abstract: According to techniques of this application, a garment may include a trunk, three left sleeves, and three right sleeves. Two of the left sleeves and two of the right sleeves may be short sleeves. The third left sleeve and the third right sleeve may be long sleeves. The garment may include a placket that comprises a first placket piece, a second placket piece, and a third placket piece portion. The placket may be assembled separately and then attached to a V-neck cutaway of the trunk.

Abstract: The invention relates to a monitoring system for monitoring a state of a door lock mechanism of a door or of a closure of a storage space of a means of transportation, comprising a generator and a sensor/actuator. The generator produces electrical energy from vibration energy, and the sensor detects the state of the door lock mechanism. The sensor uses the kinetic energy that is produced by the actuation of the door lock to generate an electrical signal, which is then transmitted to a microcontroller.
