  • Publication number: 20160132192
    Abstract: In one example, a mobile device is configured to display video images. The video images may be displayed in connection with collecting the video images or as part of a playback of previously recorded video images.

  • Publication number: 20060219606
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for producing and storing elemental Oxygen on the lunar surface where it can be used by humans to establish and maintain colonies. The Oxygen is produced by robotic miners who strip mine the lunar fines from the surface, subject them to an initial screening step for size, and then refine them through a series of steps to produce elemental Oxygen, elemental Silicon, elemental Titanium, elemental Aluminum, elemental Iron, elemental Calcium, elemental Magnesium and smaller amounts of Sodium and Potassium. The refined Oxygen can be stored in solid form as ingots or pellets or powder as long as it is not subjected to warmth. To prevent sublimation and for human convenience, the robotic mining apparatus can be programmed to produce bottles of the elemental silicon and caps of the Aluminum. It could then place Oxygen inside the bottles and cap them before storing them conveniently in a shady place.
