Abstract: An embodiment of the invention may include a method, computer program product and computer system for product build assistance and verification. The method, computer program product and computer system may include computing device which may receive a product build order for a product and match the product build order to one or more recognition algorithms and one or more pieces of product artwork. The computing device may generate one or more build steps for product assembly and display a build step to a first user via a user interface on a mixed reality device. The computing device may analyze progress of the build step via the mixed reality device and generate a product build status update based on the progress of the build step. The computing device may display the status update to a second user on a second computing device.

Abstract: A method of generating a descriptor of at least part of an image includes receiving image data representing the at least part of the image. The image data is processed to identify at least one texture characteristic of the at least part of the image, thereby generating texture data indicative of a texture of the at least part of the image. The texture data is processed with the image data, thereby generating weighted texture data. A descriptor of the at least part of the image is generated using the weighted texture data.

Abstract: A breakout assembly in accordance with one aspect of the invention includes a housing including a tubular body defining a passage extending from a first end to an opposite second end of the body. An interior surface of the body includes a plurality of longitudinal guides, the interior surface further including a stop. The tubular body defines a plurality of openings extending through the body on opposite sides of the stop. The breakout assembly further includes a cap which is slidably received within the body of the housing, wherein notches within the cap receive the guides of the housing, and wherein the cap is engageable with the stop. The cap defines a plurality of internal openings extending through the cap. A multi-fiber cable can be received within the body from one end, and a plurality of breakout tubings are received within the body of the opposite end.

Abstract: A decomposable thin film comprising a plurality of polyelectrolyte layers of alternating charge, wherein decomposition of the thin film is characterized by degradation of at least a portion of the polyelectrolyte layers.

Abstract: An adaptor for use on a spray can which is normally operable by pushing down on a valve button with one's finger to open a valve and release pressurized contents in a sprayed pattern from a nozzle on the valve button. The adaptor releasably attaches to the top of the spray can and includes an actuator mechanism for holding the depressible valve button down in the open position, thereby allowing the pressurized contents of the can to be released from the nozzle without the use of the operator's finger. The actuator mechanism is operable between an on position, to hold the valve button down, and an off position to release the valve button in order to close the spray can valve when it is desired to interrupt spraying.

Abstract: A device for detecting the presence of an electric current in a conductor having a elongate hollow tubular body defining a handle, an electrically conductive blade having a sharpened edge attached to and extending from one end of the handle, an electric lamp visibly housed within the handle and electrically connected to the blade and a ground wire electrically connected to the lamp and including a clamp for secured attachment to a ground. The sharpened edge of the blade is specifically structured and disposed for cutting through the insulation of a wire conductor for conductive contact therewith whereupon the presence of an electric current through the conductor will illuminate the lamp in the handle of the device.
