Abstract: A method and a system for providing an augmented reality (AR). The method includes identifying a horizontal surface to place an augmented reality arcade machine upon receiving a press gesture on a start button of an application displayed over a display screen of a computing device. The method includes placing the augmented reality arcade machine on a grid. The display screen presents a play button and a reset button on the application after placement of the augmented reality arcade machine on the grid. The method includes transmitting a “gameStart” command to an application server upon receiving the press gesture on the play button. The application server utilizes a game token to load prize items into the slots. The slots include a total of nine slots, having 3 slots on each row available to a user, and the user places a key in one of the nine slots to win the prize items. The method includes facilitating the user to use at least two controls to decide where the user wants to place the key.

Abstract: The present invention teaches a punch and die measurement device which includes a linear array LED micrometer arranged so that the light beams and shadows pass vertically from transmitters to receivers, and further teaches a 1:1 ratio pantograph for transferring measurements from inside of a necker die to outside the die where it may then be measured by the linear array LED micrometers. The invention may include a precision alignment block, captive adjustment screws to adjust tilt plates angle of the linear array measurement carriage and lever arms to reduce motion of the adjustment screws as applied to the tilt plates.

At least one flexible, planar spanner is configured to extend between the borehole wall and mats. At least one elongated spanner support is used to mechanically couple one or more spanners to the borehole wall. At least one elongated lip support is used to mechanically couple one or more spanners to the mats.

Abstract: Method of manufacturing mats for use with a plurality of top side seal members in a load-supporting surface includes at least one milling machine, router or thermoplastic mold forming at least one channel in the upper surface of each mat proximate to the outer edge of at least a first side thereof and configured to engage at least one dart of at least one of the seal members and a recess in each mat's upper surface around each respective channel and configured to seat at least part of one leg of at least one of the seal members.

Abstract: Methods of manufacturing a plurality of mats useful with a plurality of frame style seal members in a load-supporting surface include at least one milling machine, router or pre-formed mold forming at least first and second elongated grooves in first and second offset outer edges of at least a first side of each among at least first and second stepped-configuration, reversible mats. Each groove causes the seal member(s) seated therein to extend into a gap formed between the mats, abut at least one seal member extending from another mat into the same gap and form a liquid-tight seal therewith.

Abstract: Apparatus for forming a liquid-tight seal across gaps formed between adjacent components of a load-supporting surface useful at an outdoor worksite includes a liquid-impermeable, elongated, seal member configured to be sealing coupled to first and second mats in the load-supporting surface and extend across the gap formed therebetween.

Abstract: Apparatus for forming a liquid-tight seal across gaps formed between at least first and second adjacent mats in a load-supporting surface includes at least one seal member configured to be coupled to each among first and second outer edges of at least a first side of each among at least first and second adjacent mats and extend laterally outwardly therefrom into one among at least two gaps formed between the adjacent mats and abut at least one other such seal member extending into the same gap from the other adjacent mat that forms the gap.

Abstract: The first embodiment is comprised of three components, a back plate component, a handle component and a cover component. The handle component is rotationally attachable to the back plate component. The cover component is removably attachable to the back plate component where it covers the handle component except that a portion of a panel on the handle component protrudes through an aperture in the cover component. When the handle component is attached to the back plate, and the cover component is attached to the back plate component, and a container containing a liquid is installed in a cavity behind the handle, then when the handle panel is pushed, a small amount of liquid is dispensed. Additional embodiments are presented. The embodiments are inexpensive to manufacture and easily maintained without tools.

Abstract: A method for producing a device for piercing a body surface is disclosed. A sheet (200) is provided having opposite first and second faces. A plurality of microprojections (304) and openings (302) are formed through the first and second faces of the sheet (200). The first face of the sheet (200) is positioned adjacent a die (402) having a plurality of cavities (404) corresponding to the plurality of microprojections (304) of the sheet (200) in such a way that each of the microprojections (304) of the sheet (200) is positioned adjacent a corresponding cavity (404) of the die (402). An elastomeric material (410) is then forced against a second face of the sheet (200) and into the cavities (404) of the die (402) to deflect the microprojections (304) of the sheet (200) into the cavities (404) of the die (402).
