Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods are described herein for precision insertion. In various embodiments, a feeder device may be configured to feed an object such as wire from a wire source into a wire path. In various embodiments, a guidance device with a channel that at least partially defines the wire path may receive the wire fed from the feeder device. In various embodiments, a base may be provided for mounting at least one of a first substrate having a first aperture and a second substrate having a second aperture so that the first aperture of the first substrate is aligned with the second aperture of the second substrate. In various embodiments, the base may be configured to be movable relative to the guidance device to position the first substrate or second substrate so that the first or second aperture is aligned with the wire path.

Abstract: The invention includes a computer readable medium with executable instructions to analyze radio frequency (RF) tag information. The executable instructions access cross-enterprise RF tag information, identify a product transition based upon the cross-enterprise RF tag information, define a new product path based upon the product transition, and apply logic to the new product path to facilitate cross-enterprise product flow analysis.

Abstract: A clear, shaft-mounted, shield for a String Trimmer , Brush Cutter, Pole Trimmer or similar shaft-based cutting device which provides debris protection for the operator. This invention defines the usage of a transparent and rigid material which absorbs & deflects high-speed flying debris generated from the spinning head of trimming devices. This invention will function as expansive layer of protection used separately or in conjunction with existing, head-mounted, trimmer guards and improves upon the debris protection, visibility, adjustment and removal compared with conventional, fixed and opaque guards, which are the standard of lawn trimmer devices.

Abstract: A computer readable medium including executable instructions to analyze radio frequency (RF) tag information includes executable instruction to access cross-enterprise RF tag information, identify a product transition based upon the cross-enterprise RF tag information, and define a new product path based upon the product transition, where the new product path defines product pedigree information. Additional executable instructions authenticate a user, secure product information, supply product pedigree information corresponding to the product information, and verify the pedigree of the product based upon the product pedigree information.

Abstract: A method of authenticating a product includes authenticating a user through a graphical user interface. Product information is secured. The product information is linked to product pedigree information derived from cross-enterprise RF tag information. The cross-enterprise RF tag information includes RF tag information characterizing product movement from a first enterprise to a second enterprise. The first enterprise and the second enterprise are selected from a manufacturer, a warehouse, a distributor and a retailer. The product pedigree information is supplied. The pedigree of a product is verified based upon the product pedigree information.

Abstract: A combustible gas sensor comprises four glass insulated radially extended and symmetrical temperature sensitive elements which are coated with a porous ceramic but only two elements having a catalyst. The sensor is mounted inside a temperature controlled reactor vessel in a region of no temperature gradient into which a combustible gas mixture is admitted and reacted on the catalytic surfaces. The change in the resistance of the elements under the catalyst is a measure of the concentration of the combustible gas.

Abstract: A miniature source of modulated infra-red energy comprises a very thin heated wire strip (11) of low mass, mounted in a tensioned state by means of two resilient members (18), and a reflector (15) positioned behind the wire (11) so as to enhance the radiated energy. The source is hermetically sealed in an inert atmosphere with a cap (20). The cap (20) has an aperture (16) through which the energy emerges, this is sealed either with a window or a filter (17) if a specific wavelength is desired.
