Abstract: Head-mounted Displays (HMDs) are commonly used for virtual reality, mixed reality, and augmented reality. HMDs are, by definition, worn on the head of a user to provide a display in the line of sight of the user. By viewing the display, the user is able to experience one of the aforementioned types of reality. Oftentimes, HMDs are configured to integrate live video captured from the user's perspective, especially in the case of the HMD providing augmented reality where a virtual environment is combined with video of the real world. The present disclosure provides a configuration for a HMD having an array of image sensors to accurately capture image data to form the live video from the user's perspective.

Abstract: The invention provides a process for the production of a functionalised carbon (nano)material comprising heating a carbon (nano)material in an inert atmosphere to produce a surface-activated carbon (nano)material and incubating said surface-activated carbon (nano)material with a chemical species capable of reacting with the surface-activated carbon (nano)material.

Abstract: A system is provided for monitoring at least one data bus of an aircraft. The system includes an aircraft adapted to control the operation of stores of a second predetermined type (e.g., Harpoon Block I missiles). However, the aircraft is also capable of carrying a store of a first predetermined type (e.g., Harpoon Block II missiles), and capable of communicating with the store across a communication bus (e.g., MK-82 Digital Data Bus). The system also includes a bus monitor assembly capable of capturing data communications transferred across the communication bus between the aircraft and the store, the data communications being captured from the communication bus. The bus monitor assembly is also capable of preparing the data communications, and monitoring the communication bus across which the data communications are transferred, the communication bus being monitored based upon the prepared data communications.

Abstract: A system for an aircraft that includes an attachment point for a store and a data management system that communicates data amongst a plurality of mobile platform systems and an operator. The data management system includes a docking station and a data link operatively associated with the attachment point thereby allowing the store and at least one of the mobile platform systems to communicate. The system includes a circuit that docks to the docking station and includes an input, a first data port, and a second data port. The circuit accepts operator commands via the input and sends commands to the data link, and to the store, based on the inputs via the second data port. Additionally, the circuit accepts imaging from the store via the second data port.

Abstract: A prefabricated tub/shower enclosure, and a method for retrofitting a bathroom with same are disclosed. The enclosure consists of a molded shell having three walls, a tub portion, a ceiling and integral plumbing. In use, a portion of the tub/shower enclosure is cantilevered beyond the exterior wall of the house, allowing a larger-sized tub/shower enclosure to be incorporated into the bathroom than would otherwise be possible. The tub/shower enclosure is installed through an opening formed in an exterior wall of the house between interior framing members defining the bathroom.
