The cable further includes a flexible wire disposed within the sheath that runs a substantial portion of the length of the cable. The wire acts to fold the cable in a pre-defined configuration. In some implementations, the cable also includes magnets disposed on or within the sheath. The magnets act to fold the cable in the pre-defined configuration in conjunction with the flexible wire.

  • Lens cleaner
    Publication number: 20070261711
    Abstract: A device may include a receiving surface to receive a cleaning device adapted to clean a surface of a lens when the device is proximate to the surface of the lens. The device may further include a mounting surface to moveably support the device on a host surface, where the host surface further supports a lens. The mounting surface may further maintain the device in a first position that maintains the cleaning device proximate to the surface of the lens to remove a foreign object from the surface of the lens, and maintain the device in a second position that maintains the cleaning device away from the surface of the lens to allow the lens to receive optical information related to a subject.
