Abstract: A mobile computing device and cradle holster comprises a body formed of a unitary material that is constructed and arranged to surround both a mobile computing device and a cradling apparatus coupled to the mobile computing device. The body includes an opening for receiving the mobile computing device and cradling apparatus and for exposing a top region of both the mobile computing device and cradling apparatus. The opening further has a width configured to receive and hold in place both the cradling apparatus and the mobile computing device coupled to the cradling apparatus, and the cradling apparatus comprising a mating interface for conformably positioning in an interior of the holster. At least one clip extends from a rear surface of the body for removably coupling to a belt of a wearer, the clip including a mounting element for coupling to the rear surface of the body.

Abstract: Provided is a cart mounted cup holder. The cup holder includes a support bracket having a mounting member, a connecting member, a horizontal member and a vertical member. The connecting member is coupled between the mounting member and the horizontal member such that an interior angle between the horizontal member and the mounting member is an acute angle. The vertical member is coupled to the horizontal member and is substantially perpendicular to the horizontal member. The cup holder also includes a cup retaining member coupled to an end of the vertical member, wherein the cup retaining member is perpendicular to the vertical member and substantially parallel with the horizontal member. The cup retaining member has an aperture for receiving a cup there through, wherein the cup is supported by the horizontal member when received through the cup retaining member.

Abstract: A guidance system and method including receiving self-service option information from a self-service kiosk, wherein the self-service kiosk prompts the user to input information regarding a self-service option, processing the self-service option information to determine a correct kiosk destination for the user from a plurality of kiosk destinations, wherein the self-service order is processed at the correct kiosk destination, actuating a light source to illuminate a pathway to be followed by the user to reach the correct kiosk destination, wherein the pathway is visible on a floor of a user queuing location for processing self-service orders, between the self-service kiosk and the correct kiosk destination located in the user queuing location for processing self-service orders of the retail location, and prompting an available self-service kiosk to alert a nearby customer to an availability of the available self-service kiosk, to reduce a queue of customers in the user queuing location.

Abstract: A three-dimensional printing gun is provided, including: a 3D printing filament source removably attached to a housing, a 3D filament advancing mechanism configured to advance a 3D filament through a barrel portion, a heating element coupled to the front end of the barrel portion of the housing, the heating element having an internal bore configured to receive the advanced 3D filament from the 3D filament advancing mechanism and heat the 3D filament to a hot molten 3D printing material to be discharged from an outlet of a nozzle of the heating element, as part of the actuation of the actuator, and an insulator sleeve surrounding the heating element. Furthermore, an associated method is also provided.

Abstract: An automated selecting and mixing machine including a cabin disposed within a housing structure, the cabin configured to receive a container from a user, the container containing a base medium, a container engagement element, the container engagement element being movable from a first position to a second position to manipulate a lid of the container, a plurality of dispensers, the plurality of dispensers configured to dispense an element into the container to mix with the base medium, a mixing mechanism located in the cabin, configured to manipulate the container positioned within the cabin to achieve a mixed product, and a user interface coupled to the housing structure, wherein a user selects the mixed product using the user interface to initiate an automated process of the automated selecting and mixing machine, is provided. Furthermore, an associated method, computer system, and computer program product is also provided.
