Abstract: A bendable glass and substrate assembly includes a glass panel that has a planar pre-installation geometry and first and second panel surfaces that are separated by a panel thickness and at least one substrate that is bonded to at least a portion of the first panel surface. Both the glass panel and the substrate are made of bendable materials and are adapted to take on at least one bent post-installation geometry that is different than the planar pre-installation geometry. The bendable materials of the glass panel and the substrate remain flexible and resilient even after the substrate is bonded to the glass panel and as a result the bendable glass and substrate assembly has a planar geometry before installation and is bent to a final non-planar shape or contour when the bendable glass and substrate assembly is mounted in a final installation.

Abstract: Techniques to selectively capture media using a single user interface element are described. In one embodiment, an apparatus may comprise a touch controller, a visual media capture component, and a storage component. The touch controller may be operative to receive a haptic engagement signal. The visual media capture component may be operative to be configured in a capture mode based on whether a haptic disengagement signal is received by the touch controller before expiration of a first timer, the capture mode one of a photo capture mode or video capture mode, the first timer started in response to receiving the haptic engagement signal, the first timer configured to expire after a first preset duration. The storage component may be operative to store visual media captured by the visual media capture component in the configured capture mode. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A system for fastening soft tissue to bone includes a bone screw having a threaded shaft and a screw head having an underside with malleable protuberances that project toward a distal end of the threaded shaft. A fixation plate is coupled with the threaded shaft. The fixation plate has a proximal face that opposes the underside of the screw head, a distal face that faces away from the underside of the screw head, an outer peripheral edge that extends between the proximal and distal faces, a central opening for receiving the threaded shaft, and protrusions spaced from one another around the outer peripheral edge that extend distally beyond the distal face of the fixation plate. The system includes an insertion tool having a handle and a tubular shaft extending distally from the handle.

Abstract: Interactive graphical user interfaces (GUI) are provided. An interactive GUI is generated on a display of a user device, comprising one or more screens to display baseline portfolios and user adjustment tools for customizing variables of the baseline portfolios. The portfolios comprise a combination of data structures, with each data structure defined by a combination of components and/or parameters. The variables comprise a portfolio strategy and/or a customizable parameter. An adjustment indication is received from the user device via the interactive GUI via the user adjustment tools. A variable is adjusted responsive to the adjustment indication. The interactive GUI dynamically updates and displays the adjusting and an impact of the adjusting on at least one other variable as the adjusting occurs. A confirmation indication is received from the user device via the interactive GUI. A user-customized portfolio of data structures is created and issued responsive to the confirmation indication.
