Abstract: Embodiments position a barcode reader, or other optical detector, to scan upright barcodes when the user's hand is in the neutral position. To do this, embodiments rest the body of the ring scanner device on top of the index finger, with the palm facing inward toward the user's body. Embodiments have integrated interactivity, including a touchscreen display and separate buttons that can be used to operate the optical detector and input data into an integrated computing device. The integrated computing device can run software applications on board the ring scanner device. Finally, the integrated computing device can be remotely managed.

Abstract: Provided is a case for portable electronic devices of different dimensions including a front surface, a back surface, and corners. The case has a main body, a plurality of engagement members configured to engage the portable electronic device, and a plurality of extendible couplers. Each extendible coupler is configured to couple an associated engagement member to the main body at one of a plurality of selectable extendable positions with respect to the main body.

Abstract: Provided is a headphone system, comprising a sound module and a headphone body. The sound module comprises a module attachment interface, a module audio interface, and a controller. The headphone body comprises a first earphone; a second earphone; and a headphone attachment interface to provide removable attachment with the module attachment interface a headphone audio interface to couple with the module audio interface when the module attachment interface is engaged with the headphone attachment interface. The headphone audio interface communicates audio signals from the sound module to the first earphone and the second earphone when the module attachment interface is engaged with the headphone attachment interface. The controller transmits audio signals from the sound module to the module audio interface to further transmit to the headphone audio interface which transmits to at least one of the first and second earphones via the headphone audio interface.

Abstract: Provided is a portable charging station for a portable electronic device having a wireless power receiver to supply power to the portable electronic device. The portable charging station comprises a base having a wireless power transmitter and a battery source providing power to the wireless power transmitter and an attachment structure to position the portable electronic device to engage the base at a location where the wireless power transmitter is in transmission range from the wireless power receiver, wherein the wireless power transmitter is configured to transmit power from the battery source to the wireless power receiver when the portable electronic device is engaged to the base by the attachment structure.

Abstract: Provided a case having interchangeable parts that are coupled together to provide a protective casing for an electronic device, such as a smartphone. The case parts may comprise a first rim, a second rim and a material, such as a flexible material, to extend across a surface of the portable electronic device. The first rim includes one or more protrusions to extend through corresponding one or more openings of the material to extend the material across at least a side portion of the first rim between the first rim and the second rim. In further embodiments, the material may comprise a flexible material may be formed of a composite material comprising at least one mesh material and an additional layer.
