  • Publication number: 20210401826
    Abstract: In various aspects and embodiments, the present invention provides abuse deterrent pharmaceutical formulations, and methods of making the same. The abuse deterrent formulations can comprise a CNS stimulant (particularly one that is addictive or prone to be abused) and an opioid receptor antagonist. These agents are bound by one or more pharmaceutically acceptable resins (e.g., ion exchange resins) to limit their potential to be separated by a potential abuser.

  • Patent number: 10403033
    Abstract: A scene may be rendered as objects that are lit by various light sources. A scene designer may arrange the scene to create particular lighting effects when viewed from an initial perspective, such as gloss, translucency, and iridescence, and may choose lighting effects to create a desired aesthetic tone and/or highlighting within the scene. However, rendering the scene from a different perspective may alter the lighting effects (e.g., losing or misplacing desired lighting effects, and/or creating new and undesirable lighting effects, such as glare). Instead, when the scene is rendered from the initial perspective, the lighting effects created therein may be stored with the scene representation of the scene. A second rendering of the scene from a different perspective may reapply the stored lighting effects to the lit objects, thereby maintaining the lighting effects and the intent of the designer in the presentation of the scene from a different perspective.
