Abstract: An augmented reality (AR) computing device for displaying computer-generated elements in augmented reality supported service activities is provided. The AR computing device is configured to scan a first location, using an AR display device, to capture location data including consumer data corresponding to one or more consumers and facial data associated with the one or more consumers. The AR computing device is also configured to select, using the AR display device, a first consumer of the one or more consumers, store the consumer data corresponding to the first consumer in a database, and receive AR data associated with the location data. The AR computing device is further configured to automatically display, using the AR display device, the AR data, receive an update for the AR data, automatically update the AR data in response to the received update, and display, using the AR display device, the updated AR data.

Abstract: Methods and materials are provided to isolate the coat protein genes from maize chlorotic dwarf virus. One or more of these genes (MCDV-CP.sub.1, MCDV-CP.sub.2 or MCDV-CP.sub.3) is then incorporated in an expression cassette designed for suitable expression in a plant cell system. The resulting transformation vector is then introduced into maize to provide cross-protection to MCDV or related viral infections.

Abstract: An EPR imager and spectrometer includes pulse generating system for generating broadband pulses having an RF carrier frequency that is not highly absorbed by biological samples. The pulse generating system includes up and down chirp convertors for frequency modulating a carrier frequency pulse and compressing the frequency modulated pulse to form a broadband excitation pulse of high energy. Such a machine could form the basis of a clinical imaging device capable of high sensitivity to free radical species in human patients.
