Publication number: 20240144306Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate generally to systems, methods, and apparatus for assessing consumer perception of business features, such as brands, products, and services. A graphical user interface presents a consumer with a prime associated with the business feature. The graphical user interface presents a target to be sorted by the consumer. An instruction from the consumer is received (via a user input device) to sort the target into a bin presented on the graphical user interface. Consumer response data associated with the instruction from the consumer is generated and, based on the consumer response data, the consumer's perception of the business feature is assessed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Aaron Ashley Reid, Clinton Lee Taylor

Publication number: 20210162502Abstract: Methods of additive manufacturing using noble metals and/or copper metal, and binder compositions for use during the additive manufacturing methods, are generally described. In some instances, the methods of additive manufacturing include de-binding (and in some cases sintering steps) that afford metal-based composites, de-bound metal structures, and metal objects containing noble metals (e.g., silver, gold, platinum) and/or copper that have improved properties, such as relatively high densities. In certain aspects, combinations of certain metal powders (e.g., noble metal and/or copper powders) with certain binder compositions may result in improved properties of resulting metal objects produced by the additive manufacturing process, such as relatively low surface roughnesses. The binder compositions described may include a low molecular weight polymer (e.g., including an acrylic acid repeat unit) and, in some cases, a cross-linking agent.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 2, 2020Publication date: June 3, 2021Applicant: Desktop Metal, Inc.Inventors: Ilya L.

Patent number: 10570010Abstract: The various technologies presented herein relate to formation of carbon micromechanical systems (CMEMS), wherein the CMEMS comprise multiple layers of carbon structures and are formed using a plurality of photoresist precursors that are processed to form carbon. The various embodiments can be utilized in producing a plurality of CMEMS with full production level fabrication, e.g., 6 inch wafers can be processed. A pyrolyzed layer of carbon is lithographically defined after pyrolysis, wherein the post-pyrolysis etch process can produce carbon structures having repeatable and accurate device geometries, with straight sidewalls. A sacrificial layer can be applied to facilitate separation of a first carbon layer from a second carbon layer, wherein, upon pyrolysis to form the second carbon layer and lithography thereof, the sacrificial layer is removed to form a CMEMS comprising a first carbon layer (e.g., comprising bottom contacts) located beneath a second carbon layer (e.g., a mechanical layer).Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2017Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Assignee: National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLCInventors: Patrick Sean Finnegan, Cody M.
