Abstract: There is a product display system and container for holding contents. The container includes a housing configured to contain the product; a power source coupled to the housing and configured to provide electrical power; an electronic paper display coupled to the housing, electrically coupled to the power source, and configured to visually display first and second images; a processor in electrical communication with the electronic paper display and configured to control display of the first and second images; and/or a memory module in communication with the electronic paper display and configured to store information regarding the first and second images. There is an activation module in electrical communication with the electronic paper display, the processor, and the power source, wherein the activation module is configured to selectably restrict power consumption from the power source. There is also a solar cell for recharging the power source.

Abstract: A method of forming a reinforced building product from garbage, comprising the steps of sorting garbage, shredding plastics within the garbage, shredding fibers within the garbage, heating the shredded plastics, forming a slurry from the plastics and fibers, disposing the slurry within an extrusion cavity, extruding the fluid through a venturi, and allowing the extruded materials to cool. Garbage is separated into plastics, fibers, and other materials. Plastics are shredded to facilitate melting. Fibers are shredded to macroscopic lengths no greater than a maximum internal diameter of a venturi. The plastics are melted. The melted plastics are mixed with fibers and other material to form a slurry that is extruded from a cavity through a venturi, thereby causing significant alignment of the shredded fibers within the slurry in an outer region of the extruded slurry. Cooled, there is reinforced building material.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method for controlling remote lighting devices via radio frequency. The lighting device includes a housing, a power source, a light source, a signal receiver and a signal processor. The light source emits light in response to an appropriate signal received. The apparatus is configured to be held by human users, or attached to their person via a securing means. A system for controlling the lights includes at least one transmitter for transmitting the signal, a processor communicably coupled to the transmitter for providing instructions to the transmitter when to transmit the signal, and a plurality of lighting devices. A method includes the steps of providing at least one transmitter to transmit the signal, providing a processor to provide instructions to the transmitter when to transmit the signal, and providing a plurality of lighting devices.
