Patent number: 11674638Abstract: An improved headset is provided to selectively distribute the weight of the headset while securely registering the headset comfortably on a wearer's head. The headset comprises one or more compliant arms and a frame to selectively distribute the weight of the headset and secure the headset to the wearer's head without the need for straps or leavers. The compliant arms provide a normalizing force through elastic body deformation to selectively distribute the weight of the headset.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2021Date of Patent: June 13, 2023Assignee: Magic Leap, Inc.Inventors: John Francis Shanley, IV, William Andrew Lee, Masumune Kaji, Shigeru Natsume

Publication number: 20220387925Abstract: One variation of a method includes: conveying a mixture of air in a working fluid through a compressor to heat and pressurize the mixture to promote absorption of carbon dioxide into the working fluid; depositing the mixture in a high-pressure vessel configured to remove air from the mixture of carbon dioxide in the working fluid; conveying the mixture through a turbine to reduce pressure and promote desorption of carbon dioxide from the working fluid; depositing the mixture in a low-pressure vessel for removal of carbon dioxide; in response to a temperature of an interior environment falling below a target range, conveying the working fluid through a heating element configured to transfer heat from the working fluid into the interior environment; and, in response to the temperature exceeding the target range, conveying the working fluid through a cooling element configured to transfer heat from the working fluid into an exterior environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 12, 2022Publication date: December 8, 2022Inventor: William Andrew Lee
