Abstract:
According to particular embodiments, a system (10) comprises one or mores light sources (20), a Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) system (24), and a controller (28). A light source is configured to generate light, and the DMD system comprises DMD regions configured to modulate the light. The controller is configured to repeat the following for a number of iterations: instruct each light source to scroll the light across the DMD system at a current amplitude level; instruct one or more DMD regions to operate as one or more active regions that modulate a first portion of the light to generate an image (14); and instruct the remaining DMD regions to operate as an amplitude modulation region that receives a second portion of the light, the second portion of the light transitioning from a previous amplitude level to the current amplitude level.
Abstract:
A method (200) of executing a transaction associated with performance of an action involving a plurality of parties includes steps of a first party initiating (202) a transaction and requesting performance of an action. Another step includes querying (204) a second party regarding predetermined preferences of the first party. Still another step includes selecting (206) a third party to perform the requested action. The selection being based at least in part upon the predetermined preferences. Yet another step includes contacting (208) the third party through the secure portal and arranging for performance of the requested action by the third party. Further steps include obtaining (210) a performance acknowledgement from the first party after performance and transmitting the performance acknowledgment through the second party through the secure portal. A system is also disclosed.
Abstract:
A scuffing device (30) arranged to impart texture to a plastic pallet surface (12) having a plurality of cutting members (34) axially aligned and mounted adjacent each other, the cutting members (34) having radial toothed edges for cutting into and imparting texture to the plastic pallet surface upon rotating engagement therewith. The device further having a shaft upon which the cutting members are mounted for providing rotational movement to the cutting members.
