Apple sues former designer over alleged stolen secrets Chris Davies - Mar 11, 2021, 3:07pm CST Apple is suing a former MacBook designer, alleging that he sold unreleased product details to a journalist in return for favorable coverage as he left the Cupertino firm for a startup. Simon Lancaster had been Advanced Materials and Prototyping lead at Apple until he resigned in November 2019, but a new lawsuit accuses him of copying trade secrets from other projects so that he could supply them to an “outside media correspondent” currently unnamed. After leaving Apple, Lancaster joined Arris Composites as Head of Consumer Products, according to his LinkedIn profile. The company has developed a system called Additive Molding, in which composite structures can be manufactured with a mixture of continuously aligned fibers, electronics, and metallic components. ....

Arris’s first-of-its-kind lattice-type truss uses continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites (CFRTP) to deliver a structure that embodies two ideals: exceptional strength-to-weight characteristics and exceptional scalability. Arris says this breakthrough replaces old-fashioned I-beams and enables major performance upgrades in all products that move or anywhere that weight matters. The Arris truss is also corrosion-resistant, doesn’t require painting and is completely recyclable. ....
Along with light weight, foldability for easy transport and long flight range, the Skydio X2 autonomous drone features situational awareness, infrared imaging and other advanced skills and software capabilities. Photo Credit | Skydio Arris’ (Berkeley, Calif., U.S.) Additive Molding technology combines 3D-aligned continuous fiber additive manufacturing with high-speed compression molding for fabrication of high-performance thermoplastic composite parts for a variety of potential end-use applications. Recently, Arris has partnered with drone manufacturer and autonomous flight technology leader Skydio (Redwood City, Calif., U.S.) to redefine drone airframe design using Additive Molding. The autonomous Skydio X2 drone, said to be lighter and more robust with longer range than the company’s previously launched consumer drones, has been developed for use in industrial, consumer and defense settings. Notably, Skydio X2’s foldable airframe features a single glass and car ....
developer of Additive Molding technology for the production of high-performance composites in mass-market products, announced on Jan. 12 that it has won the BIG Innovation Award. Presented by the Business Intelligence Group, the annual BIG Innovation Award recognizes organizations, products and people that are bringing new ideas to life in innovative ways. Arris was selected for its innovative approach to manufacturing. The company’s flagship technology, Additive Molding, is a high-speed manufacturing process that allows for the precise alignment of continuous carbon fibers and embedding of electronic components and multifunctional materials into a single topologically optimized part or component. Arris says the result is a cost-effective method for manufacturing lighter, stronger, faster and more intelligent products at scale (Arris Composites also recently had an in-depth discussion about its Additive Molding process with ....
