  • DYNAMIC OPTICAL PROPERTY WINDOWS IN INDICIA WITH SENSORS
    Publication number: 20230394268
    Abstract: An environmental exposure indicator includes a substrate and an environmental exposure indicator (“EEI”) material provided on the substrate that is configured to change an optical property between a creation state and an end state. The environmental exposure indicator material has a deployment state, between the creation state and the end state, at a deployment time. The environmental exposure indicator also includes calibration data based on the deployment state.
    Type: Application

  • Activatable temperature indicator
    Patent number: 10006816
    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for indicating when a container has reached a predefined temperature are disclosed. An activatable temperature indicator can include a first indicator portion with a first material with a melting point, and a second indicator portion with a second material configured to change color when combined with the first material of the first indicator portion when the first material reaches the melting point. A separation member can be removeably positioned between the first indicator portion and the second indicator portion, and a biasing mechanism can be configured to bias the first indicator portion and the second indicator portion into contact when the separation member is removed. An attachment mechanism can also be used to place the first indicator portion and the second indicator portion into contact.
