Abstract: An artificial replacement disk configured to be positioned in between a superior vertebrae and an inferior vertebrae. The upper and lower surfaces match the surface morphologies of the corresponding vertebrae and may be textured to promote bone in-growth. The artificial replacement disk may comprise gripping structures to permit easy manipulation of the artificial replacement disk during surgical procedures.

Abstract: An artificial replacement disk assembly comprised of a core in between two endplates. The endplates have outer surfaces that match the surface morphologies of the corresponding vertebral endplates. The endplates may have textured inner surface to form a strong fusion with the core during the fabrication process. The thick solid endplates strongly fused to the core create a very resilient implant. Gripping structures on the endplates may permit easy manipulation of the assembly during surgical procedures.

Abstract: A clicker toggle mechanism for a game controller is disclosed. The clicker toggle mechanism comprises a lever arm member and a barrel guide system. A screw member is threaded and affixed at a top portion of the lever arm member for adjusting and controlling the pull distance. The barrel is connected and extends through the bottom portion of the lever arm member. A clicker or toggle device is disposed underneath the device and locked in place with snaps. A toggle or clicker stopper screw barrel stopper pin at another end which is affixed to an armature to limit trigger or button pull distance. A clicker toggle connects to a bottom portion of the lever arm member, wherein the clicker toggle is pressed downwards to create a rotational force on the cam which locks in more than one position. The mechanism can be turned on and off during gameplay to allow unrestricted or restricted motion as needed. The barrel stopper pin guide, screw and clicker toggle mechanism can be completely removed as required by the user.

Abstract: A system for controlling a load including a plurality of LEDs includes a timing circuit, an encoder and a configuration switching circuit. The timing circuit generates time-off switching points and time-on switching points. The encoder generates a load voltage by modifying a rectified line voltage using the time-off switching points and the time-on switching points. The configuration switching circuit determines a maximum voltage of a line voltage input to the driver system, selects a configuration for the plurality of LEDs based on the maximum voltage, communicates the configuration for the plurality of LEDs to the load, dynamically reconfigures the configuration for the plurality of LEDs based on the modified rectified line voltage, the dynamically reconfiguration of the configuration including changing at least one of the first quantity of LEDs in electrically coupled in series and the second quantity of LEDs electrically coupled in parallel.
