Abstract: Modular flexible panels for mounting lighting strands. In certain embodiments, each individual panel is an integral unit comprised of cables and node holders that combine to create a flexible, scalable and modular lighting surface. One or more of the panel edges can connect to an edge of another panel (either directly or indirectly) to tile multiple panels together to form a modular multi-panel assembly. Each panel provides a surface to which strands of LEDs can be mounted, such as in a uniform pattern. The panel design allows for easy replacement and serviceability of individual lighting strands, and ensures that all of the LEDs face in the same direction. The resulting robust and flexible system can provide full-motion video, graphics and messaging in a transparent single or multi-panel design.

Title: Method and apparatus for providing threat image projection (tip) in a luggage screening system, and luggage screening system implementing same
Inventor: GUDMUNDSON DAN
IPC: G06V10/32
Filed: 2007-05-11
Abstract: A method and apparatus for testing luggage screening equipment operators is provides. A sequence of images of contents of luggage items derived from a device that scans the luggage items with penetrating radiation are received. The image generation device is characterized by introducing a certain distortion into these images of contents of luggage items. A display device is caused to display images derived from this sequence of images. Occasionally, the display device is caused to show a simulated threat in a luggage item by displaying a combined image derived based at least in part on an image in the sequence of images and a distorted threat image. The distorted threat image was derived by applying a distortion insertion process to a reference threat image wherein the distortion insertion process tends to approximate the certain distortion introduced in the images of contents of luggage items by the device that scans the luggage items with penetrating radiation.

Abstract: The invention is directed to polyester containers that are produced from polyester preforms, the preforms having a thermoplastic over-mold layer on at least a part of the exterior surface of the preform. The preform is made by over-molding the thermoplastic layer onto the preform surface in one or more over-molding operations. In a single over-molding embodiment the preform has a body layer of a first color and the over-molded layer of a second color. The over-mold layer can have a thickness gradient varying in thickness from one end of the preform to adjacent another end of the preform. The over-mold layers can have a thickness and color gradient. A third color will result from the blending of the first color and the differing colors of the over-mold layers where the first color and the differing colors can both be perceived. The color of the contained liquid can also add to the color mixing when the container is substantially transparent.

Abstract: A fishing lure manufactured from polycarbonate thermoplastic resin, which is lightweight, durable and economical, with high tensile strength but some flex. The lure mimics the appearance and action of an injured needlefish. The front portion is planar but the rear portion is curved, the curve characterized by a transverse bend and a slight twist about the longitudinal axis. The lure is precisely balanced so that, when pulled through the water, the twist causes the lure to roll x times clockwise, winding up the leader, whereupon the bend and the weight of the lure cause the leader to unwind then wind up counter-clockwise, so that the lure rolls counter- clockwise, settling into a reverse roll action of 2x rolls in one direction, then 2x rolls in the opposite direction, repeated indefinitely. This realistic action induces game fish to strike in a reaction bite.

Abstract: An apparatus such as a hand dryer is configured to expel air in the form of a heated flowstream and an unheated flowstream. The heated flowstream results from active heating, such as would occur when the apparatus exposes the air to a heating element. The heating element heats the air to a temperature that is greater than the air in the unheated flowstream. The apparatus can direct each of the heated flowstream and the unheated flowstream to an exit plane, which defines a first side on which the apparatus prevents the heated flowstream from mixing with the unheated flowstream.  The exit plane also defines a second side on which a target can reside. The heated flowstream can mix with the unheated flowstream on the second side, wherein mixing can occur when the heated flowstream and the unheated flowstream impinge on the target.
