Abstract: An imaging head of a medical scope comprises a capsule that encapsulates an image sensor and electronics associated with the image sensor. The imaging head further comprises a light guide, within or attached to the capsule, that conveys illumination to a field of view of the image sensor. The imaging head can be disassembled by breaking or cutting the capsule to separate the image sensor and the electronics from the light guide. The imaging head is manufactured by encapsulating the image sensor and electronics, and optionally also the light guide, in a capsule. The light guide may be overmoulded in a first overmoulding step to embed the light guide in an overmoulded body. The image sensor and electronics may then be positioned beside or against the overmoulded body and overmoulded in a second overmoulding step to complete the capsule.

Abstract: An arrow rest activation cord mounting assembly is provided including an elongated base mountable to a limb of an archery bow, a rail joined with the base, a mounting block moveable between a first end and a second end of the rail along the longitudinal axis to a plurality of discrete locations, and an anchor configured to receive an activation cord. The mounting block can be selectively positioned along the rail to set the anchor and activation cord at one or more different locations relative to the limb and thereby tune the activation of an arrow rest mounted to the archery bow with the activation cord. The rail can include multiple indicia elements of a scale to repeatedly set the block and anchor in discrete locations along the limb. The first end can extend in a cantilevered manner beyond a tip of the limb. A related method of use is provided.

Abstract: In an approach for routing a user analytic request to a registry of analytics models and data sources and operationalizing the user analytic request, a processor receives a user analytic request. A processor applies natural language processing to the user analytic request. A processor associates a first set of vectors and a second set of vectors from the user analytic request to one or more analytics models and data sources by utilizing a plurality of domain-specific ontologies and a plurality of knowledge bases. A processor performs a semantic search for one or more concepts in the one or more analytics models and data sources. A processor receives the one or more concepts found in the one or more analytics models and data sources. A processor selects an analytics model to process the user analytic request. A processor executes the analytics model. A processor outputs a result to the user.

Abstract: A container for storing a beverage includes a vessel for storing the beverage, a lid removably attachable to the vessel, and a sleeve attached to an exterior of the vessel. The sleeve is moveable between a first position and second position with respect to the vessel. The sleeve includes a first visual indicator of contents of the vessel, and the exterior of the vessel includes a second visual indicator of the contents. While the sleeve is in the first position, the first visual indicator is visible and the second visual indicator is not visible. While the sleeve is in the second position, both the first visual indicator and the second visual indicator are visible.
