Abstract: System-in-package modules that can provide a high level of functionality, are space efficient, and are readily manufactured. In an example, a high-functionality system-in-package module can include both a wireless circuit and an antenna. In an example, a space-efficient system-in-package module can include different vertical interconnect paths that can be used to connect the wireless circuit to the antenna. In an example, instead of being shaped as a traditional rectangular cuboid, a space-efficient system-in-package module can have a shape that more closely matches contours of an enclosure for an electronic device.

Abstract: An electronic device may include one or more radios and one or more antennas. Radio-frequency transmission lines may couple a radio to an antenna feed structure. The antenna feed structure may be wireless coupled to one or more antenna resonating elements. An intervening slot element may be disposed between the antenna feed structure and the one or more antenna resonating elements. The antenna feed structure may be disposed on a package substrate forming an integrated circuit package. The one or more antenna resonating elements may be disposed on an antenna support structure. The integrated circuit package and the antenna support structure may be mounted to the same side or opposing sides of a system substrate.

Abstract: A computer-generated virtual object manipulator having one or more affordances for manipulating a computer-generated virtual object is disclosed. Selection of a virtual object can cause an object manipulator to be displayed over the virtual object. The object manipulator can include a cone-shaped single-axis translation affordance for each of one or more object axes, a disc-shaped single-axis scale affordance for each of the one or more object axes, an arc-shaped rotation affordance for rotation about each of the one or more object axes, and a center of object affordance for free space movement of the virtual object. The object manipulator can also include a slice-shaped two-axis translation affordance that can be displayed after hovering over an area in a particular plane.

Abstract: In one implementation, a method of playing audio is performed at a device including one or more processors coupled to non-transitory memory. The method includes playing audio associated with an object at a frequency-dependent volume based on a distance between a user location and an object location, an object orientation with respect to the user location, and the frequency-dependent three-dimensional audio emission pattern. In various implementations, methods of visualizing the frequency-dependent three-dimensional audio emission pattern and changing properties thereof are disclosed.

Abstract: A charging case for a pair of wireless earphones comprising: a housing having a peripheral wall that defines a shell; a frame insert coupled to the housing and extending into the shell, the frame insert having one or more insert walls that define first and second pockets sized and shaped to accept first and second wireless earphones, respectively, wherein the one or more insert walls cooperate with the housing primary wall to define a sealed chamber within the charging case; a lid coupled to the housing and operable between a closed position in which the lid covers the first and second pockets and an open position in which the first and second pockets are exposed; a speaker module disposed within the sealed chamber, the speaker module comprising an audio driver having a diaphragm that separates a front volume of the audio driver from a back volume of the audio driver and a speaker vent disposed within the back volume; one or more first openings formed through the peripheral wall and opening into the front volume, wherein the audio driver is positioned and aligned to emit sound into the front volume and through the one or more acoustic openings; and one or more second openings formed through the peripheral wall at a location spaced apart from the front volume, wherein at least one of the one or more second openings is an acoustic vent acoustically coupled to the back volume of the audio driver through the speaker vent ear tip.
