  • Publication number: 20210287149
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for accessing and visualizing supply chain data. A computing system can receive an indication of a selected facility item. The selected facility item can represent a particular supply chain item that is processed at a particular facility of a set of facilities in an organization. The system can render a first view of a user interface pertaining to the selected facility item. The computing system can receive a selection of a first user interface element within the first view of the user interface, and in response, transition from the first view of the user interface that includes the item flow map to a second view of the user interface that shows additional information pertaining to the selected facility item or the particular facility represented by the selected facility item that is not shown in the first view.

  • Patent number: 3953871
    Abstract: A mechanism which can be utilized to drive a rotating sector disc type light shutter with a high degree of precision, so as to control light exposures that are made through a stationary aperture. Unlike the prior art, this inventive mechanism can be used to extend the exposure duration range almost indefinitely. In essence, this is accomplished with the inventive mechanism by stopping the motion of the sector disc shutter, with the open portion of the sector disc aligned with the stationary aperture, and then, after a preset elapsed interval, restarting the disc to close the aperture and terminate the exposure. Also unlike the prior art, this inventive mechanism obviates the need for critical timing.
