Abstract: Techniques for collecting data via a display page are disclosed. A data entry field that does not display a current value associated with the data entry field is provided in the display page. A display field configured to display at least a portion of the current value associated with the data entry field is included in the display page selectively, e.g., at a time when a display criteria is satisfied.

Abstract: A tilt mechanism for a transfer rail that is used to support a plurality of grippers for engaging and moving workpieces between a series of spaced apart work stations in a linear transfer press. The transfer rail forms part of a press transfer system of the type having a drive mechanism to impart three dimensional movement to the transfer rail. The tilt mechanism comprises at least one connector and at least one actuator. The connector secures the transfer rail to the drive mechanism and permits three dimensional movement of the transfer rail. The connector also permits the transfer rail to be rotated, relative to the drive mechanism, about its longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A system and method for painting decorative designs. According to a preferred embodiment, the invention comprises an imprint applicator handle including a handle member and imprint applicator, the latter preferably comprising a generally rectangular, arcuate member formed from a clear or non-opaque material. The imprint applicator defines an arcuate application surface to which a rubber stamp design may be detachably fastened. The rubber stamp design is adapted to receive a pigment, which may be a paint, ink, or dye and when rocked across a substrate, such as a wall, paper and the like, via the imprint applicator handle, the pigment is caused to transfer from the rubber stamp design to the substrate. Advantageously, the present invention enables a wide variety of designs to be easily and neatly formed, as well as capable of being faithfully duplicated.

Abstract: apparatus and method for objectively focusing an instrument used for photographing the fundus of the eye such that consistent high resolution fundus photographs can be attained.A narrow sharp oscillating needle 11 is focused onto the ocular fundus 22. The image 23 of the oscillating needle 11 moves past photodetector 15 located either at film plane 16 or at the plane of the crosshairs which are visible in the eyepiece or at any plane optically conjugate to the film plane. The spatial frequencies of image 23 are converted into a time-varying electrical signal at the output of photodetector 15. When image 23 of needle 11 is in best focus at film plane 16, its contrast is highest and the photodetector 15 will have a maximum alternating current output as indicated on focus detector 20.
