Abstract:
A laminate of dielectric materials is disclosed for use in protecting an electronic device. The laminate includes at least one layer of a polymeric material having an active material dispersed within the polymeric material and having a first thickness. The active material is responsive to external electric fields such that a higher voltage external electric field may be applied to one side of the laminate without any voltage passing through the laminate than a maximum voltage that could be applied to the laminate without passing through the laminate when the active material is not present within the polymeric material having the first thickness.
Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments include systems and methods for providing a notification upon the occurrence of a trigger event associated with playing media content over a network. An exemplary method may include transmitting access to a media content data file to a computing device associated with a content receiver, playing the data file at the computing device, and transmitting an electronic notification to another computing device when the trigger event occurs.
