Abstract: A system, device and method for nail care is provided. The nail care system includes a shaping system, a polish removal system and/or a cuticle management system; a vision system; a nail polish application system; and a mobility system. The nail system may further include an accelerated drying system, a hand massage system, a nail identification/diagnosis/estimation of conditions system, an enclosure, a hand/foot rest system, a computer software system, a computer hardware system, a cartridge/pod system, and a multi-tool system. Related apparatuses, techniques and articles are also described.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to systems, devices, and methods for uptake of CO2 from ambient air. In some aspects, a device can include a platform with a top portion and a bottom portion, an elevation mechanism configured to move the platform vertically, a plurality of orifices defined by the top portion of the platform, the plurality of orifices configured to dispense liquid toward a tray, and an actuator configured to move laterally along a bottom side of the top portion of the platform, the actuator configured to urge the tray to move laterally. In some embodiments, the bottom portion can support the tray as the tray moves laterally. In some embodiments, the elevation mechanism can include at least one of a chain or a linear actuator driven by a motor.

Abstract: A collapsible pessary is provided, and can have a stem and at least one rotating petal member that can rotate between a collapsed state with a smaller diameter and a deployed state with a larger diameter. The collapsible pessary can have a plunger within the stem, and pushing the plunger upwards can cause the plunger to push upwards on a portion of the petal member, thereby causing the petal member to rotate into a deployed position. The pessary can be in a collapsed state wherein its overall diameter is at a minimum, or a deployed state, wherein its overall diameter is at a maximum.
