  • Patent number: 12658735
    Abstract: According to examples, a charging interface for a wearable device may include a receiver coil arranged inside the wearable device; a transmitter coil arranged outside the wearable device, where the transmitter coil is to generate a charging voltage for the wearable device via magnetic induction with the receiver coil. The charging interface may include a first pair of magnets having respective polarity axes and positioned at top and bottom portions of the transmitter coil, and a second pair of magnets having respective polarity axes and positioned at top and bottom portions of the receiver coil. The polarity axes to may be aligned with an attachment plane between the transmitter coil and the receiver coil. Furthermore, the polarity axes of the first pair of magnets may be reversed with respect to corresponding second pair of magnets.

  • Publication number: 20250203731
    Abstract: A power management system for a display light emitting diode (LED) driver for an augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR) device mitigates (e.g., attenuates) an input peak power delivered to the LED driver from a DC source and decreases a voltage ramp rate of the LED driver while maintaining the default current ramp rate or vice versa. A liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS) digital process is used to provide a current reference with a slow ramp rate and/or to provide an offset. The offset (e.g., a delay) may be implemented between the voltage ramp and the current ramp to achieve a non-overlapping output voltage and output current.
