Abstract: A mount for a mobile device on an internal display screen of an automobile. A housing defines a volume and has a device side attachment surface and a back surface. The housing also has an attachment extension to couple to the internal display such that the device side attachment surface has a permanently fixed orientation relative to the attachment extension. The housing contains a wireless charger and a first arrangement of magnetic material. The magnetic material exposes a pattern of magnetic fields at the device side attachment surface. The attachment extension has a display screen coupling surface with an arcuate contour that substantially mates with a contour of the internal display screen.

Abstract: A protector for a wheel is formed from a plurality of segments. Each segment is formed from a synthetic material and has an arcuate distal edge of a first radius, the distal edge forming a lip to engage a distal edge of the wheel. Each segment has at least two spoke adjacent edges and an arcuate proximal edge with a second radius less than the first radius. In some embodiments, the proximal edge defines a hook to engage an inner recess of the wheel. Each spoke adjacent edge is configured to reside near a spoke of the wheel during use. In some embodiments, a protrusion extended from the lip serves as a pinch point when a tire deforms during an impact event.

Abstract: A wallet for attachment to a mobile device. The wallet has a body defining a compartment and a device side surface. The wallet has a first arrangement of magnetic material with a first region exposing a first polarity magnetic field at the device side surface and a second adjacent region exposing an opposite polarity magnetic field at the device side surface. The wallet also has a second arrangement of magnetic material with a first region exposing a first polarity magnetic field at the device side surface and a second adjacent region exposing an opposite polarity magnetic field at the device side surface. Collectively, the first and second arrangements, in use, magnetically couple the accessory to a mobile device and cause the accessory to adopt a specific orientation on the mobile device.

Abstract: Disinfectors that are touchless, high speed, or both for personal electronic devices and the like. A housing defines an internal volume including a disinfection zone and an object entry port of a size to permit entry by an object of interest with exposed surface area. At least one emitter projects a stripe of UV-C light into the disinfection zone. Wherein the apparatus has a small footprint and the emitter to exposes the surface area to greater than 3 mJ/cm2 of UV-C light in less than 90 seconds.

Abstract: A wallet to be connected to an electronic device to facilitate charging through the wallet. The wallet has a body defining an internal volume. The body has a first external side and a second external side and defines an ingress/egress opening on one edge of the body. The wallet exposes a charge receiving interface on one external side and a charge transmitting interface on the other external side.

Abstract: A keyboard using temporal evaluation of timestamps. The keyboard changes the functions of keys based the temporal relation of key events on home row. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

Abstract: A charger for attachment to a mobile device. A housing with a device side surface contains a wireless charger including at least one coil. A first arrangement of magnetic material has a first region exposing a first polarity magnetic field at the device side surface and a second immediately adjacent region exposing an opposite polarity magnetic field at the device side surface. In use, the arrangement magnetically couples the housing to a mobile device and causes the housing to adopt a specific axial orientation on the mobile device thereby assuring substantial axial alignment of the at least one coil with a corresponding coil associated with the mobile device.

Abstract: Disinfectors that are touchless, high speed, or both for personal electronic devices and the like. A housing defines an internal volume including a disinfection zone and an object entry port of a size to permit entry by an object of interest with exposed surface area. At least one emitter projects a stripe of UV-C light into the disinfection zone. A drive under the control or a controller transport causes relative movement between the object and the emitter to expose the surface area to greater than 3 mJ/cm2 of UV-C light in less than 90 seconds.

Abstract: A key for user input having superior tactile qualities. The key is suspended by a magnetic field force to improve the smoothness of motion. Two compact interleaved members link a keycap to a key base to provide highly precise parallel travel with reduced tilt and flexion, and improved durability.

Abstract: A collapsible compact touch-type keyboard for mobile devices. The keyboard includes a plurality of separate parts that together form a keyboard with keys large enough to allow efficient touch-typing. The plurality of parts includes at least a first and a second base each retaining a plurality of keys. A wireless transmitter exists within at least one of the parts to send keyboard events to a computer.

Abstract: An ultra-compact wireless keyboard in separable components, with an associated stand to support mobile devices. The invention uses separate key arrays which can be attached or dissociated, to deploy in a layout suitable for touch typing, or to collapse into a compact form for convenient transport. The stand provides for inclined operation of a mobile device with only a small additional volume. The keyboard may also provide for password characters to be stored internally, and transmitted automatically to a mobile device.
