Abstract: Apparatus includes one or more fillable containers (35) in fluid communication with a primary channel (32), which is in fluid communication with a fluid entrance opening (31) which is attachable to a fluid source. The fillable containers (35) are made of a material that ruptures upon propelling the fillable containers (35) against a target. Each of the fillable containers (35) includes a one-way valve (33) that allows fluid to flow through the primary channel (32) into a corresponding one of the containers (35) and to seal each of the containers (35) with the fluid therein.

Abstract: An imaging system constituted of: an imager; an imager translation mechanism arranged to translate the imager along a predetermined translation axis in each of a first direction and a second direction responsive to a provided electrical power, the second direction opposing the first direction, the predetermined translation axis exhibiting an imaging angle with a floor, the first direction being toward the floor along the translation axis, the imaging angle being less than 90 degrees and greater than 0 degrees; a piston translation mechanism; and a piston power mechanism arranged to provide motive power to the piston translation mechanism, wherein the piston translation mechanism is arranged to translate the imager in the second direction responsive to the provided motive power in the absence of the provided electrical power.
