Abstract: Accessories for an electronic device and methods are described. The accessory comprises a substrate configured to be removably attached to the electronic device and a near-field communications (NFC) tag attached to the substrate and configured to transmit interaction data in response to receiving a signal from a separate electronic device. The interaction data causes the separate electronic device to access user data associated with a unique user account.

Abstract: A handheld pool skimmer is an apparatus that allows a user to get into a swimming pool and manually collect all of the debris within the swimming pool. The apparatus includes an edging frame, a mesh, a plurality of handgrips, and a plurality of brushes. The mesh is used to sift through the pool water and collect the debris within the pool water. The mesh is held taught on the apparatus with the edging frame, which also provides a structural base for the other components. The handgrips are distributed about the edging frame so that the user can grasp the necessary section of the present invention. The brushes allow the user to scrub or sweep up debris from the surface of the swimming pool.

Abstract: An audio system includes an enclosure having a transducer. The transducer creates a vibration in the enclosure in response to being driven by an audio signal having a frequency range. A cradle assembly mechanically couples a portable device to the enclosure through an isolator. A portion of the vibration is coupled into the cradle assembly. The isolator reduces an amplitude of the coupled vibration so that an operation of the portable device within a portion of the frequency range is uninterrupted when the portable device is coupled to the cradle assembly.
