Abstract: Embodiments related to the tactile enhancement of a computer input device are disclosed herein. In one disclosed embodiment, a method of making removable tactile-enhancing grips for a computer input device is disclosed. The method comprises heating a thermoplastic elastomeric sheet to a temperature at which the thermoplastic elastomeric sheet is capable of receiving and retaining an imprinted feature, pressing onto the thermoplastic elastomeric sheet a plate comprising a pattern, thereby embossing the pattern onto the thermoplastic elastomeric sheet, and cooling the thermoplastic elastomeric sheet to a temperature at which the pattern is retained in the thermoplastic elastomeric sheet. An adhesive layer is then formed on an opposite side of the thermoplastic elastomeric sheet as the pattern.

Abstract: A mounting bracket mountable on a bow for removably attaching and precisely calibrating an arrow support mechanism. The mounting bracket includes a mounting plate and a module releasably attachable thereto. The mounting plate is attachable to the bow and has an alignment surface integrally formed thereon. The module also has a corresponding integrally formed alignment surface. When the mounting plate and the module are releasably attached together, the alignment surfaces seatingly engage one another to automatically and repeatably position the module in a predetermined aligned relationship with the mounting plate, and thereby the bow.
