Abstract: An aerated beverage composition is described herein. The aerated beverage composition comprises coffee having a weight percentage in a range of 0.1-20% with respect to the aerated beverage composition, at least one structurant having a weight percentage in a range of 10-40% with respect to the aerated beverage composition, at least one sweetener having a weight percentage in a range of 21-60% with respect to the aerated beverage composition, at least one solvent. The viscosity of the aerated beverage composition is in a range of 10,0000-3,40,000 cps. The aerated beverage composition, when reconstituted with water, provides a creamy, frothy, and stable ready-to-drink beverage. The present disclosure also provides a simple and convenient process for preparing the aerated beverage composition.

Abstract: In some examples, this disclosure describes a light-emitting diode (LED) driver circuit configured to: control a set of LED channels; receive, from each LED channel of the set of LED channels, channel status information that indicates whether the respective LED channel is activated or deactivated; and determine, based on the channel status information corresponding to each LED channel of the set of LED channels, a channel status of the respective LED channel. Additionally, the LED driver circuit is configured to output, to a master computing device, the channel status corresponding to each LED channel of the set of LED channels; and output, to the master computing device, channel mapping information, wherein the master computing device is configured to determine, based on the channel status information and the channel mapping information, whether one or more error conditions are present in the set of LED channels.

Abstract: A method of translating a structured document into a dynamic interactive document having fillable fields, the method including the steps of: (a) inputting the structured document into a computer resource; (b) initially utilising the parsable structure of the structured document to determine input fillable fields in the structured document; and (c) outputting a second structured document including a series of interactive fillable fields corresponding to the determined input fillable fields.

Abstract: New classes of thiadiazole and oxadiazole compounds for use in LC mixtures are disclosed. In an embodiment, the new classes of thiadiazoles and oxadiazoles comprise at least one phenyl ring attached to the heterocyclic ring, where no alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl tails are attached to the phenyl ring, but one alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl tail is attached to the other end of the molecule, and a fluoro or cyano group appears in the para position of the phenyl ring. These compounds are disclosed as being effective at inducing smectic A phases in liquid crystal mixtures, particularly in liquid crystal mixtures also possessing a smectic C phase, more particularly in materials possessing a chiral smectic C (ferroelectric) phase.
