Publication number: 20240144753Abstract: A contactless delivery locker may have a locker housing with a locker door fitted to the locker housing. A disinfecting system may be arranged to disinfect the locker content and a remotely actuable lock may be arranged to secure the locker door in a closed position and actuable to release the locker door. A controller associated with the lock may be configured to actuate the lock and a wireless interface may be connected to the controller and configured to receive a command to actuate the lock to release the locker door. The controller may operate to control actuation of the lock to release the locker door upon detection of a command to actuate the lock and release the locker door. The controller may be configured to report lock status information to a user to confirm if a locker has been opened after completion of a disinfecting cycle.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Applicant: BRGHTLY INC.Inventors: David O'Rourke, Adam O'Rourke, Dennis Draleau, Michele Kay Schuster

Publication number: 20140127429Abstract: A method of forming a coloured substrate, comprising applying to or incorporating within the substrate a diacetylene compound, and exposing the substrate to (i) a first, activating stimulus that converts the diacetylene compound from an unreactive to a reactive form, and (ii) a second stimulus that causes the reactive form of the diacetylene compound to polymerize and form the coloured substrate, wherein the diacetylene compound reverts to its unreactive form on removal of the activating stimulus and is of formula I: Y—C?C—C?C—(CH2)n-T-Q-Z (I) wherein: n=an odd integer; T=CO, CS or a bond; Q=NH, S, O, OCONH, NHCONH, NH—CHE-CONH, NHCOO or NHCSNH wherein E is H or a C1-20 alkyl group; Z=H or a hydrocarbon group containing 1 to 20 carbon atoms; Y=H or any group comprising at least one carbon atom.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2012Publication date: May 8, 2014Applicant: DATALASE LTD.Inventors: Anthony N.
