Abstract:
An input device for an electronic device includes an enclosure and a top member defining an input surface having multiple differentiated input regions. The input device further includes a first force sensing system associated with a first area of the top member and including a first group of the differentiated input regions, and a second force sensing system associated with a second area of the top member and including a second group of the differentiated input regions. The input device further includes a touch sensing system configured to determine which input region from the first group of the differentiated input regions corresponds to the first force input and to determine which input region from the second group of the differentiated input regions corresponds to the second force input.
Abstract:
A battery core includes an anode electrode collector and a cathode current collector. The battery core is created by defining an anode solution cavity on an anode electrode collector; defining a cathode solution cavity on a cathode electrode collector; depositing an anode solution into the anode solution cavity; depositing a cathode solution into the cathode solution cavity; curing the anode solution within the anode solution cavity; and curing the cathode solution within the cathode solution cavity. The anode electrode collector and the cathode current collector may be combined in a sandwich configuration and may be separated by one or more separators.
Abstract:
In a first embodiment, a pre-formed pouch is provided that includes a plurality of walls joined in order to define an aperture. An assembly may be inserted into the aperture, which may then be sealed. Further, the pre-formed pouch may be fitted to the shape or dimensions of the assembly that will be inserted. In a second embodiment, an assembly may be covered in a plurality of layers of material, such as first layer of plastic, a layer of metal, and then a second layer of plastic. Each of the coverings may be formed by dipping the assembly in plastic or metal (or other material), molding layers around the assembly, coating the assembly in the layers, vapor depositing plastic or metal (or other material) onto the assembly, and/or a combination of these operations.
