Abstract: A liquid dispensing system for dispensing two or more liquids of different composition, viscosity, solubility and/or miscibility at high filling speeds into a container through a unitary dispensing nozzle to improve homogeneous mixing of such liquids, while said nozzle is an integral piece free of any movable parts.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for thermally preconditioning a vehicle may include tracking a position of a user and determining a trajectory of the user based upon the user's position, classifying the user's trajectory as a vehicle approach, validating the vehicle approach, and thermally preconditioning the vehicle when the vehicle approach is validated.

Abstract: An automobile vehicle information system includes a touchscreen having a touchscreen capacitive sensing grid. The touchscreen displays graphics and detects touch events using the touchscreen capacitive sensing grid. A virtual touchscreen and display device is in communication with and receives the touch events detected by the touchscreen via a first digital communication link. The virtual touchscreen and display device generates graphics and maps touch coordinates to intended functions. A location of a failed virtual switch is mapped by the virtual touchscreen and display device based on screen coordinates provided by the touchscreen, the virtual touchscreen and display device generating a switch failure signal identifying the failed virtual switch. A control unit diagnoses the switch failure signal and generates a default action according to a virtual switch type.

Abstract: A unitary dispensing nozzle for co-injecting two or more liquids of different viscosity, solubility and/or miscibility at high filling speed to improve homogeneous mixing of such liquids, while said nozzle is an integral piece free of any movable parts and substantially free of dead space.

Abstract: Processes related to rotationally mixing a liquid composition that includes a consumer product adjunct ingredient, for example by subjecting the composition to multiple rotation cycles that include horizontally rotating the composition in a first direction and in a second direction that is counter to the first direction. Related systems and apparatuses. Processes for making consumer products from compositions thusly mixed.

Abstract: A liquid filling system is provided that contains a container and a nozzle, while such nozzle contains liquid flow passages that are configured to generate different liquid influxes that are directed differentially toward the bottom and the sidewall(s) of such containers.

Abstract: An image device includes a plurality of first sub-pixels, a plurality of second sub-pixels, a plurality of third sub-pixels, a plurality of fourth sub-pixels, and a plurality of fifth sub-pixels. The image device further comprises a plurality of basic repeating units. Each of the basic repeating units comprises the first sub-pixels, the second sub-pixels, the third sub-pixels, the fourth sub-pixels, and the fifth sub-pixel. A ratio of the first sub-pixels to the second sub-pixels to the third sub-pixels to the fourth sub-pixels and to the fifth sub-pixel in the basic repeating unit is 3:3:4:1:1.
