Abstract: A fluid sample collection unit may include a pod configured to receive a plurality of assay pads and a metering stack. The metering stack defines a channel extending longitudinally between an inlet end and dispensing portions. In some instances, the dispensing portions are movable relative to the assay pads, but a support feature within the pod vertically spaces apart the dispensing portions from the assay pads when less than a threshold vertical pressure is applied. In one instance, the pod defines a collection volume, a dispensing volume, and a passage portion, the passage portion connecting the collection and dispensing volumes. The metering stack is at least partially received within the pod, with the inlet end being positioned at the collection volume, the dispensing portions positioned within the dispensing volume above the assay pads, and an air gap being formed within the passage portion around the metering stack.

Abstract: Techniques for providing multi-user multi-touch projected capacitive touch sensors are disclosed herein. Some embodiments may include a method that includes receiving a first sense signal from a first sensing array, the first sensing array configured to provide the first sense signal indicating a first touch on a first touch surface of a touch substrate as well as receiving a second sense signal from a second sensing array, the second sensing array configured to provide the second sense signal indicating a second touch on a second touch surface of a second touch substrate occurring concurrently to the first touch. The method may further include determining whether the first touch and the second touch share at least one anti-ghost. The method may also include associating the first touch and the second touch with a common touch entity in response to determining that the first touch and the second touch share the at least one anti-ghost.

Abstract: A mobile wall comprising an alignment pin moveably supported on a crossbar adjacent a vertical support. The alignment pin is selectively moveable between a retracted position, in which the alignment pin is retracted into a first aperture, and an extended position, in which at least a portion of the alignment pin extends outwardly from the first aperture. The alignment pin is selectively receivable in an aperture of another mobile wall while in the extended position to align the mobile wall with the another mobile wall.
