Abstract: Embodiments of a local optic using quantum dots are described. A local optic includes an optical source on a substrate, a housing, and a film that includes quantum dots. The housing is designed to fit around the optical source and has a cross-sectional area along a plane parallel to a surface of the substrate. The film is designed to sit on top of the housing and has a substantially similar cross-sectional area to the cross-sectional area of the housing.

Abstract: A libido measurement icon displays messages related to a partner user's sexual arousal level on the display of a user's devices, such as Smartphone or tablet, having Internet connectivity. When a user or partner user activates the icon, the icon will display messages received from partner users related to the partner user's current level of sexual arousal and will allow a user to submit the user's own libido level (a “libido score”) to a partner user via the libido measurement system's messaging function.

Abstract: Shown is a family of low spin and essentially no spin, full in-bore 40 mm projectiles which can be fired from a standard M203 or M320 grenade gun launcher. The projectiles have extended range through over 1000 meters and also have the capability for adding on guidance-navigation and control features/components for great accuracy. Increased accuracy is also provided by another, rear fin type projectile embodiment. The projectiles can be lengthened to accommodate more lethal fragments, and increased amount of explosive and energetic. At the same time, there is provided a training round of analogous performance for all these tactical projectiles.
