  • Patent number: 11822145
    Abstract: An electronic device such as a head mounted device may have a display that displays an image for a user. Head-mounted support structures may be used to support the display and to support lenses. The head-mounted support structures may have one or more lens barrels or other support members. Each lens may have an optical surface and a side surface. Adhesive may be used to attach the lenses to the head-mounted support structures. A first portion of the adhesive may bond each lens to a first respective portion of a support member and a second portion of the adhesive may bond each lens to a second respective portion of the support member. The adhesive may be a non-silicone adhesive that fractures in bulk rather than failing at interfaces with the lens and support member. The elastic modulus of the adhesive may help avoid cracking and plastic deformation during drop events.

  • Patent number: 11625465
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a computer-implemented platform for managing electronic instruments and electronic endorser verification information in order to validate endorser identity. A generated link and a verification information request are sent in one or more messages targeted a phone number of a computing device associated with a target party. The verification information request includes a request for imagery of the target party captured by the computing device. An endorsed electronic instrument and electronic verification information is received from the computing device, including received imagery data and a time stamp indicating when the received imagery data was captured. The received imagery data is validated at least according to whether the time stamp is sufficiently recent, and whether the received imagery data sufficiently matches expected imagery data of the requesting party based on performing a facial recognition on the received imagery data and the expected imagery data.

  • Publication number: 20200024492
    Abstract: This application relates to an assembly technique for joining parts using a magnetic adhesive. A liquid adhesive including magnetic particles is provided, the liquid adhesive having sufficient properties that allow the adhesive to flow under the influence of a magnetic field prior to curing. A method for joining parts includes the steps of applying an adhesive to a substrate at a location corresponding to the joint, placing a magnetic element proximate the joint to generate a magnetic field that interacts with the magnetic particles in the adhesive to cause the adhesive to flow in a direction corresponding to the magnetic field, and curing the magnetic adhesive under the influence of the magnetic field. An assembly fixture for joining parts includes a magnetic element and, optionally, an inductive heating element. The assembly technique can be used to form a housing of an electronic device from two or more components.
