Abstract: Technologies are generally described herein for a mirror array display system. In some examples, a controller can be configured to execute various methods for displaying content using a mirror array display having a mirror array including a number of mirrors and a light source. The controller can obtain content for display. The controller can also determine at least one aiming parameter associated with the number of mirrors and the light source. The controller can also emit light using the light source and aim the light emitted by the light source to a convergence point to generate a three-dimensional representation of the content, wherein the light is aimed in accordance with the at least one aiming parameter.

Abstract: Techniques for reinforcing concrete using rebar are disclosed. Some example embodiments may include prestressed concrete structures reinforced by twisted, threaded reinforcing bars. An example reinforcing bar for a prestressed concrete structure may include an elongated, generally cylindrical rod; an external thread disposed on the generally cylindrical rod, the external thread formed from an elongated, generally nonlinear channel wrapped about a radial surface of the generally cylindrical rod in a generally helical fashion. A base portion of the nonlinear channel may be disposed substantially against the radial surface of the generally cylindrical rod and/or an upstanding portion of the nonlinear channel may extend generally orthogonally from the radial surface of the generally cylindrical rod.

Abstract: Tags that are associated with an item such as a person or vehicle are caused to optically flicker out an identifying pattern when triggered by a user or a device at an access point (gate, computer, card reader, or the like). The association of the tag and item can include a physical attachment. The flickering light is analyzed and access is permitted if the data key encoded in the flickers is an authorizing code. A lamp such as a laser or LED is used to create the flickers.

Abstract: Items, for example grocery items in a shopping cart or warehoused items being inventoried, are counted by electronically registering flickers from tags attached to, or incorporated into, the items. The registration takes place during an interval of time equal to the flicker repetition rate of the tags. For example, each item's tag might flicker out an identifying signal (preferably from an LED in the tag) in about a thousandth of a second, and repeat this flicker once a second. A detector registers all of the flickers from all of the items during a one-second interval, and thereby counts the items because each will have flickered once during that time. Other items, with different identifying flickers, can be counted during the same interval. Thus, large numbers of various tagged items can be counted rapidly.

Abstract: A compact bass speaker cabinet uses a long, narrow, tapered waveguide that acts as does a small radial portion of the air outside a large pulsating sphere, and has the same bass response as the large pulsating sphere. The smaller end is closed and the longer end is open. In one embodiment the inside of the waveguide is a rectangle about an inch thick and substantially as wide as the speaker or speakers that are mounted on the wider surface close to or slightly overlapping the closed end; and the inside surfaces are tapered so that they meet at a point which lies beyond the closed end by a distance equal to the radian wavelength of the longest sound wave that is to be produced.
