Abstract: The following disclosure discusses systems and methods of detecting and analyzing cutaneous conditions. According to one embodiment, a 2D image of the cutaneous condition and a set of 3D point clouds associated with the 2D image are captured using an image capturing device. The 2D image and the set of 3D point clouds are sent to a computing device. The computing device generates a 3D surface according to the set of 3D point clouds. Subsequently, the computing device receives a depth map for the 2D image based upon the 3D surface from another computing device such that the depth map comprises depth data for each pixel of the 2D image. The cutaneous condition may then be measured and analyzed based upon the depth map using the computing device.

Abstract: Disclosed is a dispensing lid for a container. The dispensing lid comprises a base member and an elongated sipping member. The base member comprises a plate portion and a skirt portion. The plate portion includes an opening configured therein. The skirt portion extends from a periphery of the plate portion. The elongated sipping member is configured on the plate portion and extends from the plate portion in a direction opposite to the skirt portion. Moreover, the sipping member comprises a channel configured therewithin. The channel is fluidically coupled with the opening of the plate portion. The dispensing lid is adapted to be removably coupled to a mouth of the container in a manner such that the skirt portion engages with the mouth of the container. Upon being coupled to the container the dispensing lid is capable of dispensing a fluid, contained in the container, through the opening and the channel.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for processing and densifying recyclable materials. In one embodiment, a recyclable container densification device is provided for reliably rendering a bar code of a recyclable container unreadable. In another embodiment, the densification device is reconfigurable to be able to produce different types of recovered material from recyclable containers. In another embodiment, a chute is provided that promotes the entry of recyclable materials into a densification device by dropping the materials directly thereon. An additional embodiment includes a recycling system manufactured from densification modules that can be assembled to in different numbers and mixes to meet the needs of different customers.

Abstract: A system and computing device for issuing a vision protection policy providing both a routine eye care benefit and one or more of the following benefits: (1) an eye condition benefit; (2) an eye surgery benefit; and (3) a permanent visual impairment benefit are provided. A system for processing a claim received from a vision protection policyholder is also provided.

Abstract: A vision protection policy providing both a routine eye care benefit and one or more of the following benefits: (1) an eye condition benefit; (2) an eye surgery benefit; and (3) a permanent visual impairment benefit is provided. Methods of offering the vision protection policy, of issuing the vision protection policy to a qualified insured, and of processing a vision protection policy claim received from a policy participant are also provided.
