Volumetric bound for Euclidean metric nets ($|U|\le (1+2R/\epsilon {)}^n$)

A subset of the radius-$R$ Euclidean ball admits an $\epsilon$-metric net of size at most $(1+2R/\epsilon {)}^n$. Take a maximal separated set: its disjoint radius-$\epsilon /2$ Euclidean balls lie in the radius-$(R+\epsilon /2)$ ball. Comparing Lebesgue measures gives the estimate. In particular, the unit sphere admits a net of radius one with at most $3^n$ points.
