Abstract: Service for a machine such as a laboratory instrument can be facilitated by capture of images showing the field of view of a user of the machine, and modification of those images to remove confidential information. Modified images can then be provided to service technicians so that the service technicians can have visual information that would allow them to more effectively communicate and interact with the machines' users.

Abstract: A rollable solar power module (“RSPM”) is disclosed that includes a flexible substrate, a plurality of adjacent strings of photovoltaic (“PV”) solar cells, and at least one end-tab jumper. The flexible substrate has a flexible substrate length and a top surface that defines. The plurality of adjacent strings are attached on the top surface of the flexible substrate. Each PV solar cell has a perimeter that is a convex polygon. The plurality of adjacent strings are configured to be rollable along the flexible substrate length, where each adjacent string has an orientation along the flexible substrate length and each two adjacent strings of a pair of adjacent strings have orientations in opposite directions. The at least one end-tab jumper is physically and electrically connected to the plurality of adjacent strings, where the at least one end-tab jumper connects the plurality of adjacent strings to form a series circuit.
