Abstract: For various embodiments of a printhead assembly or ink stick assembly of the present teachings, each an ink stick assembly can be a self-contained assembly, of which a plurality of self-contained ink stick assemblies can be readily interchanged into a printing system during a printing process. Various embodiments of a self-contained ink stick assembly can have a fluidic system that can include a local ink reservoir, which can be in fluid communication with a bulk ink reservoir. Filling of a bulk ink reservoir can be done in a manual or automated mode. According to the present teachings, a bulk ink reservoir can have a volume sufficient to provide a continuous supply of ink to a local ink reservoir over the course of a printing process.

Abstract: An example system and method for processing image data of a plurality of time-separated images of a non-rigid body to detect movement of the body involves calculating and storing, for each of a plurality of sampling points in each image, a plurality of candidate movements together with the estimated probability of each candidate. For each sampling point, the probability of each of the candidate movements is recalculated based on the stored probability of that candidate movement and the probabilities of the candidate movements at neighboring sampling points. A motion field indicative of the non-rigid body movement is generated from the recalculated probabilities.

Abstract: An edge roller assembly includes first and second grip rings. The grip rings are held together in an opposing relationship such that outer surfaces thereof define a groove for receiving an edge of a substrate. The grip rings may be O-rings formed of a rubber material. In one embodiment, the grip rings are held together by lower and upper clamp plates that are adjustably fastened together so that the clamping forces exerted on the substrate can be controlled. The upper clamp plate may have a height adjustment knob for adjusting the height of the edge roller assembly mounted thereon. A method for contacting an edge of a substrate and a transport system for transporting semiconductor wafers to a wafer processing station also are described.
