Abstract: Techniques for switchable camera mirror apparatus are described. In one or more embodiments, a computing device (e.g., a tablet device, a smartphone, and so on) includes a camera functionality that is configured to capture images from a variety of different device perspectives. The camera functionality, for instance, can enable images to be captured from a front-facing device perspective, a rear-facing device perspective, and so on. Included as part of the camera functionality is a switchable mirror apparatus that is switchable to alternately reflect light from different device perspectives, such as to enable images to be captured from at least some of the different device perspectives using a single image sensor.

Abstract: Systems and methods for removing impurities from a feed fluid in a single vessel. A method generally includes, in single vessel, contacting a feed fluid passing through the vessel with a copper-based material for removing oxygen from the feed fluid; and contacting the feed fluid passing through the vessel with an adsorbent for removing at least one of water, carbon dioxide, and oxygenated hydrocarbons from the feed fluid.

Abstract: Highly stereospecific olefin polymers are obtained in enhanced yield in a continuous gas-phase fluid bed process for polymerizing alpha monoolefins employing a catalyst system comprising (a) a solid titanium-containing procatalyst, (b) an organoaluminum activator compound, and (c) a selectivity control agent, by continuously adding dialkylaluminum halide to the reactor during polymerization and conducting polymerization at a temperature of 0.1.degree. to 5.0.degree. C. above the dew point temperature of the cycle gas in the reactor.
