Abstract: A sample vessel retention mechanism for an inverted microscope having an optical objective and a scanning probe microscope (SPM) head. The inverted microscope includes a platform for supporting a sample vessel, in which is formed an aperture sized to provide a passage for the objective of the inverted microscope to approach the sample vessel from below. The retention mechanism provides a vacuum region formed in the platform, with the vacuum region being barometrically coupled with a vacuum generator. Establishment of a vacuum in the vacuum region prevents or substantially reduces oscillation of the sample vessel floor in an operating frequency range of the SPM head.

Abstract: An electronics housing comprises interlocking first and second housing portions, each of the first and second housing portions including a series of assembly joints configured such that each assembly joint of the first housing portion is receivable between adjacent assembly joints of the second housing portion, each assembly joint having a tunnel arranged such that the tunnels of the series of assembly joints of the interlocking first and second housing portions align to form a channel. The electronics housing also comprises a removable, flexible cable configured to prevent separation of the interlocking first and second housing portions when arranged in the channel.

A fabric cover includes a cover edge and a cover surface. The cover edge and/or the cover surface include an edge feature. A method of manufacturing a computing device is described. The method includes determining an edge of a computing device and based on the edge that was determined, cutting the fabric cover between 0 and 100 microns of the edge of the computing device over an edge length of the computing device of at least 100 mm.

Abstract: A cable-retention device assembly includes a first assembly portion and a second assembly portion. The first and second assembly portions include a platform and a plurality of assembly joints. Each assembly joint includes a nose forming a terminal end, first and second interfacing sides extending from the platform to the nose, and a tunnel running through the assembly joint from the first interfacing side to the second interfacing side. Assembly joints of the first assembly portion are sized and shaped to cooperatively interface with assembly joints of the second assembly portion, such that tunnels of each plurality of assembly joints collectively define a cable-routing channel when the first and second assembly portions are mated. A cable is routable through the cable-routing channel to prevent separation between the first and second assembly portions.

Abstract: An apparatus having an enclosure that is mountable on a computer rack. The apparatus comprising: a U-shaped plate, two end-caps, and a module having three faces. The U-shaped plate comprising a channel and forming a bottom face and at least a portion of the front and back faces of the enclosure. The module, which has three faces, is configured to mate with the U-shaped plate via the channel. When the module is mated with the U-shaped plate, the three faces of the module form, at least partially, the top, front and back faces of the enclosure. The two end-caps are configured to be attached to the U-shaped plate at distal ends of the U-shaped plate, wherein, when the two end-caps are attached to the U-shaped plate, side walls of the end-caps form two side faces of the enclosure.

Abstract: Methods and systems for processing multimedia files associated with an incident. One method includes receiving a request to submit a multimedia file associated with the incident and, in response to receiving the request, transmitting a text message including an identifier of the incident to a communication device. The method also includes receiving, at the answering point, a reply to the text message, the reply including the multimedia file and the identifier, and storing, at the answering point, the multimedia file including using the identifier to link the multimedia file to an incident record for the incident.

Abstract: This document generally describes techniques, methods, systems, and computer program products for providing a three-dimensional (“3D”) sports playbook. Such a playbook may permit someone like a football, basketball, or soccer coach to see a play executed in a classic X's and O's overhead two-dimensional (“2D”) view, and also in a 3D view.

Abstract: An SPM assembly includes an SPM and a wide field image acquisition device that can be used to rapidly locate a region of interest and position that region within a SPM scan range of 100 microns or less. The wide field image acquisition device may include a low resolution camera having wide field of view in excess of 12 mm, and a high magnification camera having a field of view in the single mm range. Alternatively, a single camera could be used if it has sufficient zoom capability to have functionalities commensurate with both cameras. Collocation preferably is employed to coordinate translation between the low magnification and high magnification cameras (if separate cameras are used) and between the high magnification camera and the SPM.

Abstract: A cleaning station for thoroughly cleaning the AFM component surfaces that are exposed to fluid during imaging of a sample supported in a fluid medium is disclosed. The cleaning station is designed to selectively expose the AFM component surfaces to cleansing agents, such as soap/detergent and water, plasma cleaning, etc., and cleaning tools, such as brushes, while protecting fluid sensitive components from exposure to the cleansing agents. The preferred embodiments are particularly beneficial for scanners in which the fluid sensitive components (actuator, sensor, connector, etc.) are integrated in the same device to which the cantilever holder is attached.
