Abstract: Custom condiment dispensers include a reservoir of base condiment and a plurality of flavoring reservoirs. A first pump is pneumatically connected to the reservoir of base condiment. The second pump is pneumatically connected to at least one flavoring reservoir of the plurality of flavoring reservoirs. A nozzle is fluidly connected to the reservoir of base condiment and fluidly connected to the plurality of flavoring reservoirs. The nozzle is configured to simultaneously dispense the base condiment and at least one flavoring therethrough. A controller receives the user selections of the base condiment and the at least one flavoring and operates the first pump and the second pump to dispense base condiment and at least one flavoring.

Abstract: A holding bin includes a plurality of compartments defined across a width of the holding bin, each compartment of the plurality of compartments configured to receive a plurality of food holding trays. A housing defines an outer perimeter of the holding bin. A first display is secured through the housing. A second display is removably secured to the housing. A controller is communicatively connected to the first display and the second display. The controller is configured to operate the first display and the second display to coordinatedly present a location and a status of a food tray within a compartment of the plurality of compartments.

Abstract: Systems and methods of bun holding and toasting use a bun dispenser and a toaster. The bun dispenser includes a bun holding cabinet in which a plurality of buns are held on shelves and each of the shelves include conveyors. A shuttle of the bun dispenser translates within at least one axis to align the shuttle with a shelf to receive a bun. A dispensing shelf of the bun dispenser receives the bun from the shuttle. A toaster receives the bun from the dispensing shelf and operates to toast the bun and dispense the toasted bun at a predetermined location.

Abstract: A baked good holding cabinet includes a compartment and provides a controlled environment within the compartment. A tray is configured to receive a plurality of baked goods and to be received within the compartment to hold the plurality of baked goods in the controlled environment. A cabinet actuator is operable to move a baked good within the cabinet to a dispense point of the cabinet.

Abstract: Systems and methods of custom dispensing present a plurality of custom dispense options to a user. At least one user selection is received. A recipe ID representative of the at least one selection is created. The at least one selection of the custom dispense is dispensed. The custom dispense options may include a flavoring, a conduit, or a size of a dispense. A recipe ID may be encoded in an image including a bar code or quick response code. The recipe ID may facilitate communication between a point-of-sale system and a dispenser.

Abstract: A method for repairing mask-blank defects uses repair-zone compensation. Local disturbances are compensated over the post-defect-repair repair-zone by altering a portion of the absorber pattern on the surface of the mask blank. This enables the fabrication of defect-free (since repaired) X-ray Mo—Si multilayer mirrors. Repairing Mo—Si multilayer-film defects on mask blanks is a key for the commercial success of EUVL. It is known that particles are added to the Mo—Si multilayer film during the fabrication process. There is a large effort to reduce this contamination, but results are not sufficient, and defects continue to be a major mask yield limiter.

Abstract: The invention provides an optical lens having a combination volume holographic optical element that provides a diffractive optical power. The optical lens has a programmed activating angle in which the holographic optical element provides a diffractive optical power. The invention also provides a method for producing a multilayer holographic element suitable for the optical lens.
