Abstract: A camera is disclosed comprising a substantially cylindrical camera body defining a longitudinal axis and a mounting system rotatably connected to the camera body, the mounting system comprising a base portion for mounting the camera to another object and at least one ring member arranged to surround the camera body and rotate around the longitudinal axis of the camera body during use.

Abstract: A digital video camera is disclosed comprising a substantially cylindrical camera body defining a longitudinal axis, and first and second user inputs arranged on a wall of the camera body, wherein one of the first and second user inputs is arranged on a side wall of the camera body in a plane that is generally parallel to the longitudinal axis, and the other of the first and second user inputs is arranged on an end wall of the camera body in a plane that is generally orthogonal to the longitudinal axis, one of the first and second user inputs being actuable to start recording and the other of the first and second user inputs being actuable to stop recording.

Abstract: A camera is disclosed comprising a mounting system including a base portion for mounting the camera to another object, wherein the base portion comprises a pair of levers arranged on top of one another to pivot in-plane to enable connection or disconnection of a mounting interface to the mounting system.

Abstract: A removable power pack for a camera is disclosed comprising a battery module and a data storage module housed in a common casing to form an integrated unit, wherein the casing exposes one or more electrical connectors for transmitting power and data between the power pack and a camera that receives the power pack. A waterproof camera is also disclosed comprising a camera body and a removable power pack installed in or on the body, the removable power pack including one or more electrical connectors for transmitting power to the camera once installed, and a sealing interface arranged between the camera and the power pack to prevent moisture from reaching the one or more electrical connectors.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for degassing liquids particularly cationic monomers. Fluid comprising liquid to be degassed together with sweep gas is admitted tangentially into a column (10) and forced down the column by a tubular baffle (16) which defines, with the inner wall of the column, an annulus (18) that is closed at its top (20). After passing to the bottom of the annulus the fluid forms an even film over the inner surface of the column and gas disengaging from the liquid can rise up the column while liquid accumulates at the bottom of the column. To assist the disengagement of the gas from the liquid the column is preferably of increasing cross section towards the bottom so that the thickness of the film is also reduced.

Abstract: A lift mechanism includes a balance structure configured to hold an object, wherein the balance structure is rotateably connected to an arm structure at a pivot point. The pivot point is configured, and the object is positioned, such that the pivot point is substantially coincident with the center-of-mass of the object being moved. Weights may be selectively attached to the balance structure to adjust the center-of-mass. In one embodiment, the lift mechanism includes a base and an arm configured to rotate with respect to the base, wherein the arm is attached to the balance structure at the pivot point. In this way, heavy objects may be lifted, translated, and rotated into place safely in an efficient manner.

Abstract: Beads are made from water-soluble monomer or monomer blend by reverse phase bead polymerization by extruding aqueous monomer beads into or onto the top of an upflowing column of non-aqueous liquid and the beads polymerise as they float downwardly through the column during a period of at least ½ minute. The resultant beads can have a very narrow particle size distribution.
