Abstract: An enclosure for covering an outer surface of an object includes a flexible panel moveable between a first position and a second position. The flexible panel is adapted to be flat in the first position and to at least partially enclose the object in the second position. The flexible panel includes a first panel edge, a second panel edge, and a closure system. The first panel edge is spaced apart from the second panel edge. The closure system includes a plurality of tabs extending from each of the first and the second panel edges. At least one of the plurality of tabs is adapted to simultaneously engage with two other adjacent tabs. In the second position, the closure system interconnects the first and second panel edges.

Abstract: An interlocking wrap and method for covering an outer surface of an object provides desirable qualities to complex tube shapes using a flat piece of material. The wrap may cover tubes, handles, rods, or hoops, in their many examples. Existing adhesive technologies applied to the back of the material, combined with the formation of the material into a series of three or more offset tabs that interlock when folded together in the prescribed alternating order at their meeting points, creates a cover that is pleasing to the eye, protective, and durable to frictional use. The tabs overlap one over the next in similar fashion to a zipper or a braid, only leaving the bottom tab exposed to use.

Abstract: A method includes providing an image to a feature extraction model to generate feature data. The image depicts a portion of a first device and a portion of a second device. The feature data includes coordinates representing key points of each of the first and second devices depicted in the image. The method also includes obtaining position data indicating a position in 3D space of a connector of the first device. The method further includes providing the feature data and the position data to a trained autonomous agent to generate a proposed maneuver to mate the connector with a connector of the second device.

Abstract: A small, substantially flat, envelope-shaped scent dispensing packet contains a porous, absorbent scent emitting material which retains a desired scent or fragrance. Compressing the packet forces scent-laden air within the packet through an opening in the packet, thereby delivering the scent to a user.

Abstract: A scent dispensing packet for delivering a sample of scent laden air. A scent emitting material contained inside the small envelope shaped packet, having been exposed to a specific fragrance or scent through absorption, will retain said scent and will impart it to the air inside the hollow packet surrounding the scent emitting material. Squeezing the packet forces the scent laden air inside the packet out through a small opening in the packet outer wall thereby delivering a scent or fragrance sample directly to the user. Releasing pressure on the outer walls causes the packet to expand back to its original shape drawing air back into the packet. The outer walls protect the scent emitting material inside from evaporation thus allowing the packet to be used as a fragrance or scent sampling device repeatedly over a much longer time frame than current scent sampling devices allow.
