    Abstract: Exemplary wearable computing systems may include a head-mounted display that is configured to provide indirect bone-conduction audio. For example, an exemplary head-mounted display may include at least one vibration transducer that is configured to vibrate at least a portion of the head-mounted display based on the audio signal. The vibration transducer is configured such that when the head-mounted display is worn, the vibration transducer vibrates the head-mounted display without directly vibrating a wearer. However, the head-mounted display structure vibrationally couples to a bone structure of the wearer, such that vibrations from the vibration transducer may be indirectly transferred to the wearer's bone structure.

    Abstract: An electronic device may include an audio jack allowing a peripheral audio output device to be connected to the electronic device by inserting the plug into the jack. The jack may include a receptacle that extends into the housing. A plurality of contacts may be included in the receptacle, arranged along a longitudinal direction of the receptacle. A latch may be installed in the receptacle, at an intermediate location between the proximal end and the distal end of the receptacle, to secure a position of the plug in the receptacle. A detect contact may be positioned at the distal end of the receptacle, separate from the latch. The detect contact may be actuated by the distal end of the tip of the plug to indicate that the plug is fully inserted in the receptacle. Upon actuation of the detect contact, the device may transfer audio output functionality to the peripheral device connected to the device by the plug inserted in the jack.
