Abstract: An electronic device that includes a touch-sensing device having a plurality of touch sensors arranged in a pattern configured to detect user input at a plurality of angular orientations is disclosed. The user input may be a horizontal swipe across the touch-sensing device or a vertical swipe down a vertical centerline of the touch-sensing device. The plurality of touch sensors includes a first sensor, a second sensor, a third sensor, a fourth sensor, and a fifth sensor. The touch sensors are configured to detect, via at least three sensors, the user input for one or more angular orientations of a wireless earbud between 85 degrees Forward of an initial vertical position of the vertical centerline and 85 degrees rearward of the initial vertical position of the vertical centerline.

Abstract: Techniques and apparatuses are described that implement a hearable with on-head detection using a single optical sensor. The hearable determines on-head detection based on a distance measured by the single optical sensor being less than a distance limit associated with on-head detection. A shape of the hearable's housing causes the hearable to have at least one orientation while at static equilibrium on a flat surface. This orientation causes the flat surface to be within the field-of-view of the optical sensor and causes a distance between the flat surface and the optical sensor to be greater than the distance limit associated with on-head detection. In this way, false positives associated with on-head detection can be mitigated without adding additional sensors (e.g., another infrared sensor, another proximity sensor, or a motion sensor) and without utilizing more complex optical sensors that determine additional information about the object, such as material composition.

Abstract: An acoustically-sealed electronic device assembly comprising a first housing component, a second component, and a sealing element. The first housing component may have a locking element. The second component may have a threaded channel extending at least partially along a perimeter of the second component. The threaded channel may be sized to receive the locking element. The sealing element may be positioned at an interface between the first housing component and the second component. The locking element of the first housing component may be moved from a first non-engaged position to a second engaged position within the threaded channel of the second component. The sealing element may be compressed by the first housing component and the second component to form an acoustic seal at the interface.

Abstract: Disclosed is a combined treatment method for improving corrosion resistance of metal component in chlorine-containing solution. First, the metal component is placed in the chlorine-containing solution. Large-area overlapping laser shock peening without an absorbing layer is used, when laser pulses are irradiated on the target metal component, the metal matrix surface absorbs the laser energy, vaporizes and expands to form a high-temperature and high-pressure plasma, a chlorine-containing passivation film is formed, to improve the surface corrosion resistance of the metal component. After that, the surface layer of the metal component is subjected to surface polishing, followed by large-area overlapping laser shock peening with an absorbing layer at room temperature, to further improve the corrosion resistance of the metal component.
