Patent number: 10005304Abstract: A microencapsulated pigment including a leuco dye system is incorporated as one or more layers in a roll of adhesive tape. The tape is applied and may be rubbed by hand or another object to induce a color change. The change may serve as an indicator that the tape is well adhered for masking purposes in a painting operation, or to present a design where only selected portions of the tape are rubbed to induce the color change. The microencapsulated pigment may be constructed so that the color change is irreversible or reversible.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2017Date of Patent: June 26, 2018Assignee: Chromatic Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Terrill Scott Clayton, Timothy J. Owen, Patrick Edson

Publication number: 20080028417Abstract: An application development environment is provided. A selection of instruments is provided. A selection of an instrument is received. The selected instrument is automatically queried for an identification information of an instrument driver. An absence of the instrument driver is determined in the application development environment. The instrument driver is identified at a remote storage location, the instrument driver having metadata. The identified instrument driver is verified based on the metadata. The verified instrument driver is automatically retrieved from the remote storage location. The retrieved instrument driver is installed in the application development environment. Communications are established between the application development environment and the selected instrument via the installed driver.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 2, 2007Publication date: January 31, 2008Applicant: The MathWorks, Inc.Inventor: Patrick Edson

Publication number: 20060271329Abstract: A mechanism for transparently identifying and retrieving an instrument driver to an application development environment that is associated with a user-selected instrument is disclosed. Following a user selection of an instrument through a user interface generated by the application development environment, an instrument driver associated with the selected instrument is programmatically identified. If the required instrument driver for the selected instrument is missing from the application development environment, the illustrative embodiment of the present invention retrieves the instrument driver from a remote location and installs the instrument driver in the application development environment without the involvement of the user. In one aspect of the illustrative embodiment of the present invention, metadata associated with the instrument driver is examined before any installation of the instrument driver takes place.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 26, 2005Publication date: November 30, 2006Applicant: The MathWorks, Inc.Inventor: Patrick Edson
