Abstract: A central asset registry and associated satellite registries tie Digital Asset Management (DAM) repositories and satellite repositories into a unified enterprise system. The system removes rights and asset relationship tracking from the DAMs and the satellites by gathering asset metadata tags and capturing digital asset rights and relationships between assets to improve speed, scalability, and flexibility in analyzing and traversing networks of rights and relationships of digital assets. The central asset registry and the satellite registries use a pluggable architecture and track and store multi-dimensional relationships as an asset hierarchy. The asset hierarchy and rights model depicts rights and relationship data between the assets and provides a flexible array of asset types and properties for addition of new assets, new asset types, and new rights without re-factoring the other data, nodes, and edges. The system uses asset metadata to create edge relationships between the assets.

Abstract: A display system configured to communicate tissue proximity data from a plurality of electrodes includes a display. The display outputs a circular graphical representation. The circular graphical representation includes a plurality of color areas forming a first circular shape. Each of the color areas communicate a categorized value for a respective electrode indicative of tissue proximity for the respective electrode. A plurality of graph areas form a second circular shape. Each of the graph areas communicate a relative value for the respective electrode indicative of the tissue proximity for the respective electrode.

Abstract: A writing instrument having a removable cap with an eraser at one end, the eraser being received and retained within the cap. An air passage is provided through the cap to allow for emergency respiration should the cap be accidently swallowed. The eraser may alternatively be disposed in the writing instrument barrel with an air passage provided through the barrel and exhausting through the barrel wall.
