Abstract: A system for presenting a merchant page on a mobile device comprises a server, a database accessible by the server, and a mobile device. The database comprises a plurality of merchant pages associated with merchant information. The mobile device is configured to scan a machine-readable code encoding the merchant information. The mobile device is further configured to transmit to the server a signal responsive to the machine-readable code being scanned by the mobile device. The server, in response to receiving the signal from the mobile device, is configured to transmit the relevant merchant page associated with the merchant information to the mobile device. A method for presenting a merchant page on a mobile device is also provided.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of forming a thermoplastic work piece having a deformation temperature. The method comprises locally heating a desired portion, such as a crease line, of the work piece with a stream of a heated fluid, such as a gas, having a temperature at least as high as the plastic deformation temperature of the work piece, and forming the work piece at the heated portion. An apparatus for forming a thermoplastic work piece having a deformation temperature is also provided. The apparatus comprises a heated fluid nozzle operable to deliver a stream of a heated fluid, such as a gas, to a desired portion, such as a crease line, on the work piece to heat the portion to a deformation temperature, and a forming tool for forming the work piece at the heated portion. The method and apparatus involve a conveyor, which rapidly passes the work piece through a sheet of heated fluid to form a line of weakness, which can subsequently be bent and cooled.

Abstract: The present invention relates to multiphasic, three-dimensionally printed, tissue repair devices or scaffolds useful for promoting bone growth and treating bone fracture, defect or deficiency, methods for making the same and methods for promoting bone growth and treating bone fracture, defect or deficiency using the same. The scaffold has a porous bone ingrowth area containing interconnected struts surrounded by a microporous shell. At the ends of the scaffold, the shell may be extended as a guide flange to stabilize the scaffold between ends of bone. The center of the scaffold may be empty and may serve as a potential marrow space.

Abstract: A signage system comprises a plurality of signs adapted to be mounted on a shelf or other such merchandise display device. The signs include a mounting portion, for attaching to the shelf, and a sign portion. The sign portions are provided with a shape corresponding to common shapes of traffic or road signs. The system of the invention may therefore be used to attract or direct customers to certain specific products.
