Abstract: A system for determining a position of a medical device within a body is provided that reduces positional error by establishing a reference origin closer to the device and/or simplifies the system by integrating components and functions. In one embodiment, a pair of drive electrodes are affixed to opposed surfaces of the body and create a pathway for transmission of current through a position sensor related to the medical device. A pair of reference electrodes proximate the drive electrodes are coupled to a common reference node outputting a reference signal establishing the reference origin. An electronic control unit determines the position of the medical device responsive to the position signal and the reference signal. In another embodiment, a patch affixed to an external surface of the body has a base layer and multiple devices supported on the base layer, electrically isolated from one another, and configured to perform different functions.

Abstract: A recycle bin is described having multiple enclosures to separate small waste from large waste. The enclosures may be configured with variable sized subdivisions and shelved on a track to allow complete detachment of the enclosure. Door panels may be secured with securing mechanisms and handles may be provided to facilitate moving. The recycle bin may include casters with locking mechanisms to prevent movement of the recycling bin. The casters may be attached on the bottom portion of the recycling bin. One or more pockets may be disposed on the recycling bin. The one or more pockets may be configured to accommodate lifting of the recycling bin. The recycling bin may be configured for recycling e-waste.

Abstract: A recycling bin includes a top portion configured to be in an open or closed position, a bottom portion, an optional middle portion, the optional middle portion comprising solid walls about the outer surface, an enclosure portion comprising a shelf with a door panel within the recycling bin, the door panel being equipped with a securing mechanism, at least one handle adjoined the recycling bin to facilitate moving the recycling bin, casters with a locking mechanism to prevent movement of the recycling bin when the locking mechanism is engaged, the casters being attached on the bottom portion of the recycling bin, and one or more pockets disposed on the recycling bin, the one or more pockets are configured to accommodate lifting of the recycling bin.
