    Abstract: An egg analysis system and computer-implemented methods are provided. The system comprises a light source for illuminating an egg, a photon detector for detecting a fluctuation of scattering light emitted from the egg, a processor, and a memory storing instructions which when executed by the processor configure the processor to receive scattering light data from the photon detector, digitize the scattering light data, and analyze the digitized scattering light data. One computer-implemented method comprises a light source illuminating an egg, a photon detector detecting a fluctuation of scattering light emitted from the egg, receiving scattering light data from the photon detector, digitizing the scattering light data, and analyzing the scattering light data. Another computer-implemented method comprises receiving angle, frequency and intensity data of scattering light from an egg illuminated using a light source, identifying a germinal disc in the egg from the scattering light data, and determining at least one of a fertility or a sex of the egg based on the size and structure of the germinal disc.

    Abstract: A spine for a troffer light fixture is provided. The spine is configured to receive omni-directional LED bulbs. The spine comprises: a base, a first wall, a second wall, and first end walls defining a light chamber shaped as a trough. Interior angles between the first wall, second wall, and base is 90-100 degrees respectively. The second wall defines a plurality of apertures each having a central axis arranged generally parallel in a linear arrangement. The apertures include: a pair of flanking apertures, the axis of each flanking aperture positioned 80-110 mm from one of the first end walls, and at least one interior aperture, the axis of each interior aperture positioned 135-145 mm from the axis of an adjacent aperture. Each of the plurality of apertures provides an opening through which an omni-directional LED bulb can extend parallel to the base to engage a socket mounted on the spine.

    Abstract: A label has a support liner, a facestock adhered to a support liner by an adhesive layer on an under surface thereof, the label being magnetophilic or magnetic. The label is configured to have a magnetic connection force A resulting at least from magnetic attraction with an instrument. The label is configured to be releasably connectable to an end of the instrument by the connection force A, the connection force A between the label and the instrument being greater than an adhesion force B between said under surface of the label and the support liner, the connection force A between the label and the instrument being less than an adhesion force C between the under surface of the label and a target object at the moment of adhesion of the label on the target object, whereby the label is configured to be used with the instrument to transfer the label from the support liner to the target object by releasable connection of the label to the instrument.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for assessing a biological movement are described. The method comprises obtaining a sequence of samples of a signal from a sensor; determining a set of initial parameters from the signal, the initial parameters comprising trajectory, speed, acceleration and direction data for the sequence of samples; segmenting the signal into first layer segments based on changes in the direction of the trajectory of the sequence of samples; segmenting the first layer segments into second layer segments based on the acceleration data; determining target points of the second layer segments using parameters from the first layer segments and the second layer segments; segmenting the first layer segments into third layer segments based on changes in the trajectory or the acceleration of the sequence of samples; and determining a set of output parameters based on the segmenting and the target points, the output parameters comprising timing information and command information for the biological movement.

    Abstract: An overhead storage unit includes a guide member having a first horizontal segment mountable within an overhead storage area, a second vertical segment mountable below the overhead storage area, and a curved segment extending between the first and second segments. A storage assembly has storage containers each connected to at least one other storage container at common pivots. The storage containers displace along the guide member between a stored position and an accessible position. Each storage container pivots relative to an adjacent storage container on the common pivot as the storage containers are displaced between the stored and accessible positions. The storage containers are disposed within the overhead storage area and have a first orientation in the stored position. The storage containers are disposed below the overhead storage area and have a second orientation different from the first orientation in the accessible position.
