  • Publication number: 20240165887
    Abstract: A device for the lithography-based additive manufacturing of three-dimensional structures may comprise a building platform defining a building plane, a light engine designed for the dynamic patterning of light in an exposure field of said light engine, a material transport unit comprising a first drive mechanism for transporting a material layer across the exposure field, a second drive mechanism for causing relative movement of the light engine and the building platform along a displacement path extending parallel to the building plane, a linear encoder for sensing a position and/or a velocity of the light engine relative to the building platform, and/or one or more control units configured to adjust the feeding rate of a pattern data feeder based on the position or the velocity sensed by the linear encoder.

  • Publication number: 20240100775
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for additive manufacturing are provided. In some embodiments, a method includes: coupling a plurality of build platforms to a carrier; forming a plurality of 3D objects on the plurality of build platforms using an additive manufacturing process, where each build platform receives at least one 3D object thereon; removing the plurality of build platforms from the carrier; performing post-processing of the plurality of 3D objects while the 3D objects remain on the respective build platforms; and separating the plurality of 3D objects from the respective build platforms.

  • Patent number: 11146874
    Abstract: A loudspeaker assembly for on-ear headphones, to be arranged on and/or over the ear, includes a housing in which a woofer is arranged and configured to emit low frequency sound waves along a low frequency sound beam axis toward the wearer's the ear. At least one tweeter is arranged in the housing and configured to emit high frequency sound waves along a high frequency sound beam axis toward the wearer's the ear. The at least one tweeter is a MEMS loudspeaker.

  • Publication number: 20110211709
    Abstract: The headphones apparatus has at least one ear cup, and at least one operating element coupled to the ear cup for the regulation of one or more audio functions. To facilitate the regulation for the user, the operating element can include an annular dial that is accessible from outside of the ear cup. The annular dial may be rotational, shiftable, tiltable, depressable, deformable, or any combination thereof, relative to the ear cup to operably regulate one or more audio functions of the ear cup.
