Abstract: This disclosure describes a voice-controlled electronic device that includes a housing and a mounting component. The housing includes a translucent cover attached to a cylindrical-shaped unibody enclosure. The electronic device further includes a microphone array disposed near a first end within the housing, a speaker box disposed within the housing, and a printed circuit board assembly disposed within the housing. Additionally, the electronic device includes a camera disposed within the housing and attached to the printed circuit board assembly, and a depth sensor that includes a depth camera and a projector. In some instances, the camera and the depth sensor point substantially in a direction of the translucent cover. Furthermore, the electronic device includes a light ring that protrudes from a surface of the translucent display and surrounds a lens of the camera.

Abstract: A wireless earbud including an outer housing, an internal assembly, and an inner housing. The outer housing and the inner housing may couple together to form a water tight enclosure for the internal assembly. The internal assembly may include components that carry out a function of the wireless earbud, such as printed circuit boards, network interfaces, batteries, loudspeakers, and so forth. The outer housing may also include a proximity sensor for receiving touch and/or antenna(s) for communicatively coupling the wireless earbud to other electronic devices. Additionally, the inner housing may include a charging module for the wireless earbud.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for display devices with transverse planar microphone arrays. In one embodiment, an example device may include a frame that forms a rear portion of the device, a display assembly coupled to the frame, where the display assembly forms a front portion of the device, and a first microphone hole extending through a front face of the display assembly. The device may include a second microphone hole extending through the front face of the display assembly, a speaker coupled to the frame, a power adapter receptacle coupled to the frame, and a fabric cover disposed over the frame, the fabric cover comprising an aperture aligned with the power adapter receptacle. Sound output from the speaker may be directed towards the rear portion of the device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for display devices with transverse planar microphone arrays. In one embodiment, an example voice-activated device may include a housing, and a display assembly coupled to the housing, where a first vertical axis associated with the display assembly is at an acute angle relative to a second vertical axis associated with the housing. Example devices may include a number of microphone openings disposed in a front face of the display assembly, a speaker coupled to the housing and oriented to direct a portion of sound towards a rear portion of the device, and a fabric disposed over the housing, the fabric comprising an aperture disposed along the rear portion of the device.
