Abstract: An illumination device, which may include a plurality of housing members, a plurality of light emitting elements arranged on each of the housing members, a motor coupled to the housing members to rotate them about a central axis, a sensor system for providing a signal in response to a condition of an area of interest, and control system for controlling the rotational speed of the motor, and selectively energizing the light emitting elements in response to the signal from the sensor, to provide the desired target area with a desired illumination output.

Abstract: Online communication sessions may be joined in an environment that includes receiving a first communication between a first user and a second user and enabling the rendering of the first communication at devices associated with the first and second users. A second communication between the first user and a third user is received and the rendering of the second communication at devices associated with the first and third users is enabled. After receiving the first and second communications, a trigger to join at least the communication sessions associated with the first, second, and third users is received from the first, second, or third user. Information structured and arranged to render, in a single window, text associated with the first and second communications at the devices associated with the first, second, and third users is generated.

Abstract: The present disclosure is in the technical field of photon delivery. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a fixture and method for delivering both full and supplemental lighting or photon delivery for use cases such as horticulture, circadian rhythm manipulation, task lighting, and other uses.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a cheese flavour ingredient and an ingredient so prepared. The method comprises subjecting a protein in water mixture to proteolysis by a protease enzyme and to fermentation with a physiologically acceptable bacterium of one of the genera Enterococcus, Staphylococcus or Pseudomonas capable of producing a cheese flavour ingredient. The cheese flavour ingredient of the invention has a mixture of flavours and may be used as a component of balanced cheese-like flavour compositions.

Abstract: A quick disconnect is provided to permit two cable ends to be rapidly connected and disconnected without the use of tools. The quick disconnect includes rear and front couplings which may be mounted to respective cable ends. Quick connection of the cable ends is effected by connecting the rear and front couplings to one another by a hinge latch. The hinge latch is retained in the closed position by a compression sleeve which surrounds the hinge latch. The front end of the compression sleeve includes a ring groove that retains a ring spring. The ring spring engages complementary retention grooves in the hinge latch to bias the hinge latch in the closed position, thus securing the front coupling to the rear coupling.
