At least one of the head portion and the anchor portions forms a breakaway portion with aligned internal and external circumferential grooves configured to concentrate stress thereat such that the breakaway portion fractures via forces acting on the implant to separate the head and anchor portions.

Abstract: An angle-sensitive pixel (ASP) device that uses the Talbot effect to detect the local intensity and incident angle of light includes a phase grating disposed above a photodiode assembly or a phase grating disposed above an analyzer grating that is disposed above a photodiode assembly. When illuminated by a plane wave, the upper grating generates a self-image at a selected Talbot depth. Several such structures, tuned to different incident angles, are sufficient to extract local incident angle and intensity. Arrays of such structures are sufficient to localize light sources in three dimensions without any additional optics.

Abstract: A structural panel includes an impermeable solid base sheet that has one side adapted to adhere to a surface such as by mortar or grouting and having a second side adapted to receive decorative material. For example, the second side may include pieces forming a mosaic or may include artwork in relief or colors and the like. The panel is sealed with a smooth outer surface that may be transparent or translucent or may be partly transparent but colored. This material is the equivalent of self-leveling materials such as those that form a smooth level surface such as a liquid or semi-solid and then harden while maintaining the smooth surface.
