       DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
       [0032]    Referring now to the figures,  FIG. 1  shows a perspective view of an exemplary binder cover system  100  as described herein. As shown, the binder cover system  100  may include a binder  102  (e.g., a three-ring binder) and a removable binder cover  104  configured and/or adapted to be installed on the binder  102  as described herein. 
         [0033]      FIG. 2  illustrates an exemplary perspective view of the binder  102 . As shown, the binder  102  may include a three-ring binder, a folder, a notebook, a notepad, a stack and/or collection of papers, a book, and/or another type of paper holding device. The binder  102  may be manufactured from a variety of materials such as plastic, vinyl, metal, paper, cardboard, and/or a combination of the aforementioned materials. In some embodiments, the binder  102  may be substantially rigid in construction. Alternatively, the binder  102  may be pliable, bendable, and/or flexible. 
         [0034]    In some embodiments, the binder  102  may include a spine portion  106 , a front portion  108  coupled to the spine portion  106  on a front end of the spine portion  106 , and a rear portion  110  coupled to the spine portion  106  on a rear end of the spine portion  106 . Each of the spine portion  106 , the front portion  108 , and the rear portion  110  of the binder  102  may define an exterior surface and an interior surface. In some embodiments, each of the exterior surface and/or the interior surface of each of the spine portion  106 , the front portion  108 , and the rear portion  110  of the binder  102  may include a binder pocket  112  for storing and/or displaying papers, business cards, and/or the like. 
         [0035]    In some embodiments, a ring system  114  may be operatively coupled to the interior surface of the spine portion  106  of the binder  102 . The ring system  114  may include one or more rings  116  for securing papers. The rings of the ring system  114  may be inserted through punched holes in each piece of paper that is to be stored in the binder  102 . In some embodiments, the rings  116  may include a variety of other fasteners such as brads, staples, paperclips, adhesives, binding agents, and/or the like. The ring system  114  may also include a locking mechanism  118  that enables a user to open and/or close the rings  116  of the ring system  114  so that papers may be added to and/or removed from the rings  116  as desired for storage and/or organization. 
         [0036]      FIG. 3  illustrates an exemplary perspective view of the binder cover system  100  where the cover  104  installed on (e.g., coupled to) the binder  102 . Preferably, the cover  104  may be removably coupled to the exterior surfaces and/or interior surfaces of the spine portion  106 , the front portion  108 , and/or the rear portion  110  of the binder  102 . For example, the cover  104  may couple to the binder  102  using frictional forces and/or properties of its materials of manufacture as described herein, one or more fasteners such as hook and loop fasteners (e.g., VELCRO), one or more magnets, tape, clips, rings, hooks, clamps, and/or the like. Alternatively, the cover  104  may be permanently coupled to the exterior and/or interior surfaces of the spine portion  106 , the front portion  108 , and/or the rear portion  110  of the binder  102  using an adhesive material (e.g., glue), staples, and/or the like. 
         [0037]    The cover  104  may be manufactured from a flexible material such as fabric, cloth, cotton, polyester, plastic, vinyl, elastic, elastic cotton, acrylic, nylon, rayon, acetate, spandex, latex, Kevlar, and/or the like. In some embodiments, the material(s) of the cover  104  may be stretchable so that the cover  104  can be stretched and thus fitted over surfaces of the binder  102 . In this manner, the cover  104  may be enabled to fit (e.g., be installed on and/or cover) a variety of differently sized binders. Alternatively, the cover  104  may be manufactured from a rigid material such as a hard plastic, a metal, an alloy, and/or the like. In some embodiments, the cover  104  may include anti-stick material and/or portions of anti-stick material that prevent the cover  104  (and thus the binder  102  when installed within the cover  104 ) from undesirably sliding along a smooth surface while providing a user with enhanced grip of the binder  102 . 
         [0038]    As seen in  FIG. 3 , the cover  104  may include a spine sleeve  120 , a front sleeve  122  operably coupled to the spine sleeve  120 , and a rear sleeve  124  operably coupled to the spine sleeve  120 . In some embodiments, the spine sleeve  120 , the front sleeve  122 , and the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104  may be manufactured independent of each other and then coupled (e.g., sewn) together. Alternatively, the spine sleeve  120 , the front sleeve  122 , and the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104  may be manufactured from one continuous piece of material. 
         [0039]    In some embodiments, the front sleeve  122  may include two layers of material (e.g., fabric, and/or the like) operably coupled (e.g., sewn) together so as to create a front pocket between the two layers of material of the front sleeve  122  (e.g., within the interior of the front sleeve  122 ). As such, the front pocket of the front sleeve  122  of the cover  104  may be enabled to receive the front portion  108  of the binder  102  wherein the front sleeve  122  substantially covers (e.g., surrounds) at least a portion of the front portion  108  of the binder  102 . In this manner, the front portion  108  of the binder  102  may be inserted into, removed from, and/or secured within the front sleeve  122  of the cover  104 . An elastic property of the material of the cover  104  may enable the front sleeve  122  of the cover  104  to retract and therefore apply a frictional force upon the front portion  108  of the binder  102  when it is inserted into the front sleeve  122  of the cover  104 , thus securing the front portion  108  of the binder  102  within the front pocket of the front sleeve  122  of the cover  104 . 
         [0040]    Similarly, the rear sleeve  124  may include two layers of material (e.g., fabric, and/or the like) operably coupled (e.g., sewn) together so as to create a rear pocket between the two layers of material of the rear sleeve  124  (e.g., within the interior of the front sleeve  124 ). As such, the rear pocket of the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104  may be enabled to receive the rear portion  110  of the binder  102  wherein the rear sleeve  124  substantially covers (e.g., surrounds) at least a portion of the rear portion  110  of the binder  102 . In this manner, the rear portion  110  of the binder  102  may be inserted into, removed from, and/or secured within the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104 . An elastic property of the material of the cover  104  may enable the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104  to retract and therefore apply a frictional force upon the rear portion  110  of the binder  102  when it is inserted into the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104 , thus securing the rear portion  108  of the binder  102  within the rear pocket of the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104 . 
         [0041]    In some embodiments, the spine sleeve  120  of the cover  104  may be enabled to receive the spine portion  108  of the binder  102  so as to cover (e.g., surround) at least a portion of the spine portion  108  of the binder  102 . The spine sleeve  120  of the cover  104  may include one layer of material so as to substantially cover the exterior surface of the spine portion  108  of the binder  102 , or may include two layers of material so as to substantially cover both exterior and interior surfaces of the spine portion of the binder  102 . 
         [0042]    Each layer of material of the cover  104  included in the spine sleeve  120 , the front sleeve  122 , and/or the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104  may be operatively coupled to other layers of materials and/or portions of the cover  104  as described above using one or more sewn threaded seams. In some embodiments, each seam may define a different stitching pattern and/or sewing pattern. For example, the seams coupling the spine sleeve  120  of the cover  104  to the front sleeve  122  and/or the seams coupling the spine sleeve  120  of the cover  104  to the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104  may have reinforced seams (e.g., double seams, thicker threading, double stitching, and/or the like), whereas the seams coupling the two layers of material of each of the front sleeve  122  and the rear sleeve  124  may have unreinforced seams (e.g., single seams, thinner threading, single stitching, and/or the like). In this manner, the cover  104  may be reinforced in areas known of high wear and/or motion (e.g., repeated opening and/or closing of the binder  102  may increase wear near the spine sleeve  120  of the cover  104 ). 
         [0043]    Additionally, as shown in  FIG. 3 , each corner of the cover  104  (e.g., each corner of the front sleeve  122  and/or the rear sleeve  124 ) may include a reinforcement tab  126 . The reinforcement tabs  126  may be manufactured from a rigid material such as a hard plastic, vinyl, metal, wood, and/or the like so as to minimize the wear and tear on the seams of the each corner of the front sleeve  122  and/or the rear sleeve  124  and thus maximize durability. In some embodiments, the reinforcement tabs  126  may be operatively coupled to an inside surface of at least one of the front sleeve  122  and the rear sleeve  124 . Alternatively, the reinforcement tabs  126  may be operatively coupled to an outside surface of at least one of the front sleeve  122  and the rear sleeve  124 . 
         [0044]    In some embodiments, the front sleeve  122  and/or the rear sleeve  124  may include a utility pocket  128  for storing various accessories. The utility pocket  128  may be positioned on an interior surface the front sleeve  122  of the cover  104  and/or the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104  (e.g., a surface facing upward when the binder  102  and cover  104  are fully opened when resting on a flat horizontal surface). In some embodiments, the utility pocket  128  may extend within the interior of the front sleeve  122  of the cover  104  and/or the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104  (e.g., within the front pocket and/or the rear pocket, respectively). In some embodiments, the utility pocket  128  may be aligned with the binder pocket  112  (e.g., has the same height, depth, width, and/or other dimensions) of the front portion  108  and/or the rear portion  110 . For example, the utility pocket  128  may include a stabilization element (not pictured) that is configured to be inserted into a binder pocket  112  of the front portion  108  and/or the rear portion  110  of the binder  102  to increase stability and ensure a secure fit of the cover  104  when installed on the binder  102 . The utility pocket  128 , the closure mechanism  130 , and/or the security mechanism  132  may be positioned substantially vertically and/or substantially orthogonal to the binder pocket  112 . 
         [0045]    The utility pocket  128  may be manufactured as a separate piece of the same material as the front sleeve  122  of the cover  104  and/or the rear sleeve  124  of the cover  104  and/or a different material such as a more durable or rigid material. In some embodiments, the utility pocket  128  may include a plastic liner. The utility pocket  128  may be sized appropriately so that a plurality of pens, pencils, markers, post-it notes, small papers, paper clips, erasers, electronic devices, smart phones, tablets, and/or other items may be stored for convenience. 
         [0046]    The utility pocket  128  may include an opening with a closure mechanism  130  for closing the opening of the utility pocket  128 . For example, the closure mechanism  130  may include a zipper, a pin, a snap, a button, a latch, a string, hook and loop fasteners such as Velcro, magnets, and/or the like. In some embodiments, the closure mechanism  130  may be automated and/or its operation may be controlled by a computing processor as described herein. 
         [0047]    The utility pocket  128  may further include a security mechanism  132  for controlling access to the utility pocket  128  and its contents. For example, the security mechanism  132  may include a biometric scanner (e.g., retina scanner, fingerprint scanner, and/or the like), a lock, a pinpad, a latch, a sensor, and/or the like. As such, a user may be required to input a password or provide a particular form of user input to the security mechanism  132 , which may then process the user input and determine whether the user is granted access to the contents of the utility pocket  128 . In some embodiments, determining that the user is authorized to access the contents of the utility pocket  128  based on received user input and by the security mechanism may include automatically opening the closure mechanism  130  so that the user may access the contents of the utility pocket  128 . Additionally, the cover  104  may include a similar security mechanism  132  for controlling access to the binder  102  and its contents. 
         [0048]    In some embodiments, the cover  104  may also include a light  134  and a speaker  136 . The light  134  may provide a user with reading light when using the contents of the binder  102 . The light may further serve as a beacon and/or a strobe to assist a user with locating the binder  102  in a dark environment. The speaker  136  may emit audio for reading assistance and/or listening pleasure as well as for audibly locating the binder  102  in a cluttered and/or dark environment. The speaker  136  may be enabled to connect to a user&#39;s computing device (e.g., smart phone) via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and/or other networks for controlling play of music. 
         [0049]    The cover may further include a connectivity port  138  for connecting one or more electronic devices (e.g., computer, smart phones, laptops, tablets, wearable devices, and/or the like) to elements of the cover, such as a the light  134 , the speaker  136 , and/or a computer  140  included in the cover. In some embodiments, the connectivity port  138  may include a USB port, a power outlet, a FireWire port, a WiFi hotspot, a Bluetooth engine, and/or any other network connection port. 
         [0050]    The computer  140  as described herein may control various processes associated with the closure mechanism  130  of the utility pocket  128 , the security mechanism  132  of the utility pocket  128  and/or of the cover  104 , the light  134 , the speaker  136 , the connectivity port  138 , and/or a global positioning system (GPS) device  142  described below. The computer  140  may include a display, a processing device, non-transitory computer-readable storage media, input/output (I/O) devices, a communication device, a battery, and/or the like. In some embodiments, a user may be enabled by the connectivity port  138  and/or the computer  140  to charge her/his computing device (e.g., smart phone) by drawing power from the battery of the computer  140  of the cover  104 . 
         [0051]    The cover  104  may further include a global positioning system (GPS) device  142  for assisting a user with locating the binder  102 . The GPS device  142  may integrate with a user&#39;s smart phone and/or other computing device so that the user may identify and/or track a location of the binder  102  from anywhere in the world at any time. 
         [0052]    In some embodiments, the utility pocket  128 , the closure mechanism  130 , the security mechanism  132 , the light  134 , the speaker  136 , the connectivity port  138 , the computer  140 , and/or the GPS device  142  may be detachably coupled to the cover  104 .

         [0053]      FIG. 4  illustrates a front view of the binder cover system  100  described herein. As shown, the cover  104  may include a graphic  144  to provide desirable aesthetic qualities to the cover  104 . In some embodiments, the graphic  144  may be inserted into a slot, pouch, and/or pocket included on the front sleeve  122  of the cover  104 . In this manner, the graphic  144  may be interchanged as desired. Alternatively, the graphic  144  may be screen printed onto the cover  104 . 
         [0054]    Further, the cover  104  may include a texture. For example, the cover  104  may look and feel smooth like leather, fuzzy like hair (e.g., a mass or coating of light, fibrous, fluffy matter), and/or the like. Artistically, the cover  104  may be in any color combination, texture combination, and/or material combination to achieve a desired and/or enhanced look and feel of the cover and therefore the binder. 
         [0055]    The cover  104  may be manufactured by a three-dimensional (3D) printing process. For example, a scanner and/or camera may scan the binder  102  to capture digital images of the binder  102 . A computing processor may then analyze the digital images of the binder  102  to identify its dimensions. Next, the computing processor may generate a 3D digital model of the binder using the identified dimensions, and then generate a 3D digital model of the cover  104  so that the cover  104  is appropriately dimensioned to fit the exact dimensions of the binder  102 . The computing processor may instruct a 3D printer to print the cover  104  as modeled, thus ensuring the cover  104  is a perfect fit when installed on the binder  102 . The computing processor may also instruct a screen printer to print a particular graphic on the cover  104  as desired. 
         [0056]      FIG. 5  illustrates an exemplary process  500  for manufacturing the cover  104  described herein. At block  510 , the process  500  includes receiving, by a computing device processor, a digital image of a binder. At block  520 , the process  500  includes processing, by the computing device processor, the digital image to identify at least one dimension of the binder. At block  530 , the process  500  includes generating, by the computing device processor, a three-dimensional model of the binder using the at least one dimension. At block  540 , the process  500  includes generating, by the computing device processor, a three-dimensional model of a removable cover for the binder based on the three-dimensional model of the binder. At block  550 , the process  500  includes transmitting, by the computing device processor and to a printer, instructions to print the removable cover based on the three-dimensional model of the removable cover. 
         [0057]    In some embodiments, the computing device processor as described with reference to  FIG. 5  may also select and/or identify an optimal material type based on the at least one dimension and/or the digital image of the binder. The removable cover may then be printed using the selected material type. The printer may be a screen printer and/or a three-dimensional printer. Printing the removable cover may include screen printing a graphic on a piece of the selected material type, wherein the piece of the selected material type is sized based on the at least one dimension. The graphic may be an image received from a user device. 
         [0058]    While various implementations in accordance with the disclosed principles have been described above, it should be understood that they have been presented by way of example only, and are not limiting. Thus, the breadth and scope of the implementations should not be limited by any of the above-described exemplary implementations, but should be defined only in accordance with the claims and their equivalents issuing from this disclosure. Furthermore, the above advantages and features are provided in described implementations, but shall not limit the application of such issued claims to processes and structures accomplishing any or all of the above advantages. 
         [0059]    Various terms used herein have special meanings within the present technical field. Whether a particular term should be construed as such a “term of art,” depends on the context in which that term is used. “Connected to,” “in communication with,” “communicably linked to,” “in communicable range of” or other similar terms should generally be construed broadly to include situations both where communications and connections are direct between referenced elements or through one or more intermediaries between the referenced elements, including through the Internet or some other communicating network. “Network,” “system,” “environment,” and other similar terms generally refer to networked computing systems that embody one or more aspects of the present disclosure. These and other terms are to be construed in light of the context in which they are used in the present disclosure and as those terms would be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art would understand those terms in the disclosed context. The above definitions are not exclusive of other meanings that might be imparted to those terms based on the disclosed context. 
         [0060]    Words of comparison, measurement, and timing such as “at the time,” “equivalent,” “during,” “complete,” and the like should be understood to mean “substantially at the time,” “substantially equivalent,” “substantially during,” “substantially complete,” etc., where “substantially” means that such comparisons, measurements, and timings are practicable to accomplish the implicitly or expressly stated desired result. 
         [0061]    Additionally, the section headings herein are provided for consistency with the suggestions under 37 C.F.R. 1.77 or otherwise to provide organizational cues. These headings shall not limit or characterize the implementations set out in any claims that may issue from this disclosure. Specifically and by way of example, although the headings refer to a “Technical Field,” such claims should not be limited by the language chosen under this heading to describe the so-called technical field. Further, a description of a technology in the “Background” is not to be construed as an admission that technology is prior art to any implementations in this disclosure. Neither is the “Summary” to be considered as a characterization of the implementations set forth in issued claims. Furthermore, any reference in this disclosure to “implementation” in the singular should not be used to argue that there is only a single point of novelty in this disclosure. Multiple implementations may be set forth according to the limitations of the multiple claims issuing from this disclosure, and such claims accordingly define the implementations, and their equivalents, that are protected thereby. In all instances, the scope of such claims shall be considered on their own merits in light of this disclosure, but should not be constrained by the headings herein. 
         [0062]    Lastly, although similar reference numbers may be used to refer to similar elements for convenience, it can be appreciated that each of the various example implementations may be considered distinct variations.
