Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to an adaptable storage device for rain attire. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention relate to an adaptable storage device that can be easily transported, may be affixed to a variety of everyday articles, provides a fashionable appearance, and conveniently stores rain attire and accessories thereof until needed. In one embodiment of the present invention, an adaptable storage device for rain attire comprises a substantially water-proof storage portion having an inner volume for storing rain attire; a closure means for sealing the inner volume of the storage portion; and an attachment means for attaching the adaptable storage device to an apparatus.

Abstract: A lightweight radio/CD player for vehicular application is virtually “fastenerless” and includes a case and frontal interface formed of polymer based material that is molded to provide details to accept audio devices such as playback mechanisms (if desired) and radio receivers, as well as the circuit boards required for electrical control and display. The case and frontal interface are of composite structure, including an insert molded electrically conductive wire mesh screen that has been pre-formed to contour with the molding operation. The wire mesh provides EMC, RFI, BCI and ESD shielding and grounding of the circuit boards via exposed wire mesh pads and adjacent ground clips. The PCB architecture is bifurcated into a first board carrying common circuit components in a surface mount configuration suitable for high volume production, and a second board carrying application specific circuit components in a wave soldered stick mount configuration.

Abstract: An electronic assembly includes a backplate, a substrate and a pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA). The backplate includes a cavity and the substrate includes a plurality of interconnected electrical components. The substrate is positioned within the cavity and a wall height of the cavity is greater than a combined thickness of the substrate and the adhesive, which bonds the substrate to the backplate.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and a system for determining whether a target component of an electronic assembly is assembled correctly. The method of the present invention involves correlating the view of a test electronic assembly with both a positive control image and a negative control image. The positive control image is an image of an electronic assembly that has been assembled properly, whereas the negative control image is an image of an electronic assembly that has been assembled improperly. If the correlation between the test image and the positive control image is greater than the correlation between the test image and the negative control image, the test assembly is assembled properly. On the other hand, if the correlation between the test image and the negative control image is greater than the correlation between the test image and the positive control image, the test assembly is assembled improperly.
