Abstract: A method for assessing an emotional response from a test subject includes presenting, for a first predetermined period of time, a plurality of stimuli to the test subject through a first computer implemented interface. The method further includes, in response to presenting at least one stimulus, receiving, within a second predetermined period of time, at least one test subject response from the test subject through a second computer implemented interface. The method further includes determining a quantitative emotional profile of the test subject based on the at least one test subject response.

Abstract: A method for assessing a pre-cognitive emotional response from a test subject, using responses obtained during the first moments of brain activity after presentation of a stimulus, includes exposing the test subject to a visual stimulus for between approximately 500 milliseconds and approximately 1 second, and receiving an input from the subject while the subject is exposed to the visual stimulus or within approximately 300 milliseconds after the subject is first exposed to the stimulus. The method further includes storing, in response to receiving the input, a user response that identifies one of a plurality of emotional reactions that is associated with the visual stimulus. Each of the exposing, receiving, and storing acts is repeated for a plurality of visual stimuli. The method further includes determining, based on each of the stored user responses, one or more dominant emotional characteristics of the subject.

Abstract: An aliphatic polyurethane film is utilized as the primary glazing material for greenhouses and other heat-gain enclosures such as pool covers and sun rooms. The film is preferably a thermoplastic aliphatic polyurethane film having good abrasion resistance, low temperature flexibility, ultraviolet resistance, and strength characteristics. Lightweight portable greenhouses and modular high-performance greenhouses are made possible by the system.

Abstract: A bottle crown cap, particularly for beer bottles, comprising a metal shell and a liner of thermoplastic polyurethane. The liner material is completely reacted, then applied directly to the shell by a hot melt process.
