    Abstract: FIG. 1 is a top plan view of a first state of a speaker device with lights, where a first indicator light is lit, showing our new design;
    FIG. 2 is a top plan view of a second state, where a first indicator light and a second indicator light are lit;
    FIG. 3 is a top plan view of a third state, where the second indicator light and a third indicator light are lit;
    FIG. 4 is a top plan view of a fourth state, where the third indicator light and a fourth indicator light are lit;
    FIG. 5 is a top plan view of a fifth state, where the third indicator light and the fourth indicator light are lit;
    FIG. 6 is a top plan view of a sixth state, where the second indicator light and the third indicator light are lit;
    FIG. 7 is a top plan view of a seventh state, where the first indicator light and the second indicator light are lit; and,
    FIG. 8 is a top perspective view of the first state shown in FIG. 1, where the first indicator light is lit.
    The subject matter in this patent includes illuminated indicator lights of a speaker device with lights. The evenly-spaced broken radiating lines in FIGS. 1-8 are used to indicate an illuminated state of a corresponding circular indicator light on the speaker device with lights, the evenly-spaced broken radiating lines forming no part of the claimed design. The appearance of the transitional illuminated state sequentially transitions between the illuminated states shown in FIGS. 1-7. The process or period in which one illuminated state transitions to another illuminated state forms no part of the claimed design.
    The dot-dash broken lines in the figures are boundary lines that define the bounds of the claimed design at a top portion of the speaker device with lights and form no part of the claimed design. The portions of the speaker device shown in evenly-spaced broken lines are for the purpose of illustrating environment only and form no part of the claimed design.

    Abstract: A compact electronic device has a touch sensor and/or a microphone that are concealed within a housing at least partially wrapped by an acoustically porous cover. In some implementations, the touch sensor includes a sensing portion and a contact portion extending from the sensing portion. While the sensing portion is placed in proximity to an interior surface of the housing to detect a touch on the housing, the contact portion is bent to electrically couple the sensing portion to a circuit board via two distinct electrical paths. In some implementations, an exterior surface of the housing includes a sealing area surrounding an aperture on the housing, and the acoustically porous cover is affixed to the sealing area via an adhesive. The adhesive covers the sealing area and permeates a thickness of the acoustically porous cover, thereby enabling formation of a controlled sound path to access the microphone via the aperture.

    Abstract: A voice-activated electronic device including a first portion with a first internal surface having a first attachment structure, and a second portion with a second internal surface having a second attachment structure. The first and second internal surfaces have compatible shapes that permit the first and second portions to be moved from a separated position to a joined position, where when the first portion and the second portion are in the joined position the first and second internal surfaces form a nested arrangement. The first and second attachment structures form a secure but separable connection to one another when the first and second portions are in the joined position. The first and second portions are configured to be joined securely and separated through manual human manipulation of one or both of the first portion and the second portion to move the first and second portions between separated and joined positions.

    Abstract: A method is implemented at an electronic device for visually indicating a voice processing state. The electronic device includes an array of visual indicators and one or more microphones. The electronic device collects via the one or more microphones audio inputs from an environment in proximity to the electronic device and initializes processing of the audio inputs. A state of the processing is then determined from among a plurality of predefined voice processing states, and for each of the visual indicators, a respective predetermined illumination specification is determined in association with the determined voice processing state. In accordance with the identified illumination specifications of the visual indicators, the electronic device synchronizes illumination of the array of visual indicators to provide a visual pattern indicating the determined voice processing state. The visual pattern is displayed on the surface of the electronic device and includes one or more discrete illumination elements.

    Abstract: Various arrangements of electronic devices, such as assistant devices, are detailed herein. Such a device can include a housing and a microphone. A microphone aperture can be defined by the housing that directs sound from outside the housing to the microphone. A cover, which can be fabric, can be attached with the outside of the housing. An adhesive ring on the housing around the microphone aperture can be used to attach the cover to the housing.
