Abstract: Precursor solutions for radiation patternable coatings are formed with an organic solvent and monoalkyl tin trialkoxides in which the water content of the solvent is adjusted to be within 10 percent of a selected value. Generally, the water content of the solvent is adjusted through water addition, although water removal can also be used. In some embodiments, the adjusted water content of the solvent can be from about 250 ppm by weight to about 10,000 ppm by weight. With the appropriate selection of ligands, the adjusted precursor solutions can be stable for at least about 42 days, and in some cases at least 8 months.

Abstract: An apparatus for capturing video footage of at least one moving object on a racecourse or sporting field. The video footage includes sequential still pictures each containing a respective image of the at least one moving object. The apparatus including at least one camera mounted on a pan tilt head being configured to follow the movement of the at least one moving object, to thereby capture the video footage, and a controller in communication with the pan tilt head, for controlling the pan and tilt thereof. The controller being used to set the position of a first and a second biasing devices with respect to the limits of a picture frame of said at least one camera. The first and second biasing means are ordered hierarchically by the controller.

Abstract: The invention generally relates to a method for sequestration contaminates. More particularly, the invention relates to a significant performance enhancement over existing mineral carbonation processes through the use of a high mass transfer system and an efficient pH swing reaction. More particularly, aspects of the invention are directed to direct and indirect methods of sequestering contaminates.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an automated camera control system (10). The automated camera control system (10) is a control management system for television broadcasting at a track based event, such as horse or motor racing. The automated camera control system (10) allows a single operator (54) to simultaneously control a plurality of cameras (16). The automated camera control system (10) improves the compositional quality of the footage. The operator (54) can simultaneously perform all the functions of a director including vision switching and camera setting for the outgoing television broadcast (86).
