Abstract: A robotic cleaning system may include a robotic cleaner configured to generate a map of an environment and a mobile device configured to communicatively couple to the robotic cleaner, the robotic cleaner configured to communicate the map to the mobile device. The mobile device may include a camera configured to generate an image of the environment, the image comprising a plurality of pixels, a display configured to display the image and to receive a user input while displaying the image, the user input being associated with one or more of the plurality of pixels, a depth sensor configured to generate depth data that is associated with each pixel of the image, an orientation sensor configured to generate orientation data that is associated with each pixel of the image, and a mobile controller configured to localize the mobile device within the map using the depth data and the orientation data.

Abstract: A robotic cleaning system may include a robotic cleaner configured to generate a map of an environment and to generate a cleaner location and a mobile device. The robotic cleaner may be configured to communicate the map and the cleaner location to the mobile device. The mobile device may include a camera configured to generate an image of the environment, a display configured to display the image and to receive a user input while displaying the image, a depth sensor configured to generate depth data, an orientation sensor configured to generate orientation data, and a mobile controller configured to localize the mobile device within the map received from the robotic cleaner using the depth data, the orientation data, and the cleaner location to generate a mobile device location within the map and track a movement of the mobile device within the environment relative to the mobile device location.

Abstract: An oxidizing sterilant solution comprising percarboxylic acid is disclosed which contains a colorant that is color stable for a useful period in the oxidizing, sanitizing environment.

Abstract: Liquid disinfectant compositions are disclosed which can be used to surface-coat substrates with polymeric films which are adherent, water-resistant and which can impart prolonged germicidal properties to the treated surfaces.

Abstract: A casting process for making and utilizing an elastomeric pattern that is coated with a non-metallic material to form a non-metallic shell mold and thereafter removed from the non-metallic shell mold by thermal decomposition or mechanical stripping.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method of manufacturing a gas turbine rotor or stator using elastomeric rings for the retention of the rotor or stator blades in a core mold. The elastomeric rings are split to facilitate disassembly thereof from the blade core which is thereafter utilized in a cope and drag casting system.

Abstract: A product dispenser for dispensing two products simultaneously comprising a first cylinder having a first product therein and having an end wall. The end wall has a tongue and groove joint with the first cylinder. The first cylinder is provided with a piston plate therein and the first cylinder in turn forms the piston of a second product therein. The parts are so arranged that movement of the first cylinder relative to the second cylinder will actuate the piston plate as well as discharge both products.
