  • Patent number: 12043364
    Abstract: An airframe design may include a bonded frame or assembly, and one or more components that may be removably attached to the bonded frame. The bonded frame may include struts, central bulkheads, a tail section, a plurality of wing sections, and motor mounts that are adhered together using adhesive. The one or more attachable components may include a forward fuselage, motors, propellers, motor pod fairings, stabilizer fins, and landing gear that are attached using fasteners. The bonded frame may reduce the number of parts of the airframe design and may also reduce complexity, cost, and weight, while also increasing stiffness and strength. Further, the various attachable components may facilitate fabrication, assembly, and maintenance of an aerial vehicle having the airframe design.

  • Patent number: 12040849
    Abstract: Systems and methods for processing, transmitting and displaying data received from an analyte sensor, such as a glucose sensor, are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method for transmitting data between a first communication device associated with an analyte sensor and a second communication device configured to provide user access to sensor-related information comprises: activating a transceiver of a first communication device associated with an analyte sensor at a first time; and establishing a two-way communication channel with the second communication device; wherein the activating comprises waking the transceiver from a low power sleep mode using a forced wakeup from the second communication device.

  • Patent number: 12037282
    Abstract: A method of strengthening glass articles includes introducing potassium ions to a surface region of the glass by an initial ion-exchange process, thermally treating the glass at a thermal treatment temperature and time sufficient to diffuse the potassium ions further into the glass to a depth of layer, and introducing a compressive stress of greater than 400 MPa at the surface through a final ion-exchange process. The final ion-exchange process may be conducted at a final ion-exchange temperature of no more than 450° C. The method of strengthening produces a glass article having a compressive stress of at least 400 MPa at the surface, a depth of compression of at least 30 ?m, and a central tension less than a threshold central tension above which flaws penetrating into the central region of the glass exhibit spontaneous self-propagation of the flaw front through and across the glass.

  • Publication number: 20240214512
    Abstract: A method of wireless capture of real-time multi-channel audio and video using a mobile computing device and a wireless access point includes detecting a first musical instrument and a second musical instrument via a multi-channel audio interface wirelessly coupled to the instruments using a short-range communication protocol. The method also includes receiving a first live audio signal from the first musical instrument and a second live audio signal from the second musical instrument. The method also includes receiving a data representation of the first live audio signal and the second live audio signal via a wireless network. The method also includes processing the data representation of the first live audio signal and the second live audio signal into a live audio stream. The method also includes initiating a video capture and, concurrent with the video capture, producing a shareable video based on the captured video and the live audio stream.
