Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention comprise a system for positioning a drawn implement being pulled by a vehicle traveling generally along a desired path of movement, the vehicle having a mounting hitch on the rear end thereof where a system hitch is configured to adjust its angular orientation relative to the vehicle mounting hitch and a global positioning system receiver operable to detect the position of the implement relative to the desired path as the vehicle moves generally along the desired path and generate a signal that is indicative of the lateral position of the implement relative to the desired path and means for controlling the hitch means to adjust the angular orientation of the hitch means so that the implement follows the desired path of movement in response to the global positioning system signals.

Abstract: A micro-mirror device includes a substrate, at least one electrode formed on the substrate, and a reflective element spaced from the substrate and extending beyond the at least one electrode. The reflective element is adapted to move between a first position and at least one second position, and, when the reflective element is in the at least one second position, a minimum distance between the reflective element and the at least one electrode is greater than a minimum distance between the reflective element and the substrate.

Abstract: A substrate for a MEMS device includes a base material having a first side, a poly silicon strain gage formed on the first side of the base material, a dielectric material disposed over the strain gage, and a conductive material in communication with the strain gage through the dielectric material, wherein the substrate is adapted to have at least one opening formed therethrough, and wherein the strain gage is adapted to be formed adjacent the at least one opening.
