Abstract: An aircraft monitoring system includes a data collection module configured to collect a video feed of an aircraft interior. The video feed is directed towards a target, and a recognition module is configured to receive the video feed from the data collection module. The recognition module is configured to recognize the target and an interaction directed towards the target by a user. A decision making component is configured to determine an adjustment to an aircraft component based on the recognized target and interaction thereof.

Abstract: A system for scoring a web of a roll of material includes a plate, a scoring punch, a scoring station actuator, and a controller. The plate has a slot extending about a shape representing an outline of a pressware product. The scoring punch has a protruding blade operable to enter the slot of the plate. The scoring station actuator is configured to shift the scoring punch or the plate to press the blade against the web to form a slot in the web. The controller is configured to direct the scoring station actuator to press the blade to a first predetermined scoring depth within the web.

Abstract: A system for forming a pressware product from a web of a roll of material includes a positive mold, a negative mold, a heating element, an actuator, a force sensor, and a control system. The positive mold forms a top surface of the pressware product. The negative mold forms a bottom surface of the pressware product. The heating element is coupled to the positive mold or the negative mold. The actuator shifts the positive mold or the negative mold to cut and form the pressware product in a single stroke. The force sensor detects the forming force applied by the actuator, and the control system directs the actuator to adjust the forming force.

Abstract: A pressware product includes a top piece and a bottom piece. The top piece includes a planar central portion, a sidewall extending from the central planar portion, and a flange extending horizontally from the sidewall. The flange includes a slot and a radially extending top groove. The bottom piece cooperatively defines an inner space with the top piece. The bottom piece includes a planar central portion, a sidewall extending from the central planar portion, and a flange extending horizontally from the sidewall. The flange includes a locking flap configured to engage the slot of the top piece and a radially extending bottom groove. The radially extending bottom groove cooperatively defines a channel with the top groove so that the channel is in fluid communication with the inner space.

Abstract: A system for forming a pressware product comprises rollers, a scoring tool, a scoring station actuator, a forming tool, and a forming station actuator. The rollers pull the web along a path having an angle. The scoring tool receives the material from the rollers and includes a vertically shiftable scoring punch with an edge that extends about an outline of the pressware product and a striker plate. The scoring station actuator shifts the scoring tool to form a slot in the web. The forming tool receives the scored web and includes a vertically shiftable positive mold assembly and negative mold assembly. The forming station actuator shifts the positive mold assembly to press against the web and form the pressware product.
