The plurality of bookmarks stored in the storage device are accessible by the user using a second screen device.

Abstract: Pipe inspection and pressurized fluid cleaning methods and apparatus are disclosed. A method of fluid output from a jetter push-cable device may include providing high pressure fluid from a push-cable apparatus via one or more jetter outputs. A camera assembly, which may include lighting elements, may be further included in the push-cable device for imaging during inspection or jetter cleaning of an obstruction in a pipe or other cavity.

Abstract: A system and/or method for utilizing mechanical motion limiters to control proof mass amplitude in MEMS devices (e.g., MEMS devices having resonant MEMS structures, for example various implementations of gyroscopes, magnetometers, accelerometers, etc.). As a non-limiting example, amplitude control for a MEMS gyroscope proof mass may be accomplished during normal (e.g., steady state) gyroscope operation utilizing impact stops (e.g., bump stops) of various designs. As another non-limiting example, amplitude control for a MEMS gyroscope proof mass may be accomplished utilizing non-impact limiters (e.g., springs) of various designs, for example springs exhibiting non-linear stiffness characteristics through at least a portion of their normal range of operation.
