    Abstract: An electronic device may have a display cover layer provided with an infrared-transparent antireflection coating. A pixel array may emit visible light through the cover layer and the coating. An infrared emitter may emit infrared light and an infrared sensor may receive infrared light through the coating and the cover layer. The coating may include a stack of thin-film interference layers. The stack may include alternating lower and higher refractive index layers. The layers may have thicknesses and materials that configure the coating to exhibit an infrared transmittance of greater than 94% from 920 nm to 960 nm and a photopic reflectance of less than 1.5%. The coating may reflect visible light to prevent displayed images from being obscured by visible reflections. At the same time, some photopic reflectance of the coating may be sacrificed to maximize infrared transmittance and accommodate operation by the infrared emitter and sensor.

    Abstract: A three-dimensional feature is formed in a surface of a component. Material is removed from the component by rotating an abrading tool about a first axis. While the abrading tool is rotated, the component (and/or a shaft coupled to the abrading tool) is rotated on a second axis. The second axis may be transverse to the first axis and may run through a center of the three-dimensional feature. The abrading tool may correspond to the three-dimensional feature. For example, the abrading tool may be configured to contact an entirety of an exterior of the three-dimensional feature during the removal operation, fill the three-dimensional feature during the removal operation, and/or have a shape that corresponds to the shape of the three-dimensional feature in two planes that are normal to each other.

    Abstract: Transparent articles for use as outer surfaces of electronic devices and methods therefor are disclosed. A transparent cover can be provided over a display of portable electronic device to provide a protective outer cover over the display. The transparent cover can include material to mark, mask or color a portion of the transparent cover, such portion thereupon becoming opaque. The material can be provided in a recessed portion of an inner surface of the transparent cover, such portion being a portion of the transparent cover that is not over a usable portion of the display. The electronic device can, for example, be a portable electronic device.

    Abstract: A head-mountable display device can include a structural frame, where a first mounting bracket can be coupled to a first side of the structural frame. In some examples, the first mounting structure can include a cantilever arm. A second mounting bracket can be coupled to a second side of the structural frame opposite the first side, where the second mounting bracket can include a mounting arm, a sensor coupled to the cantilever arm, and a display assemble slidably coupled to the mounting arm.
