A cutting board apparatus is provided. The cutting board apparatus assists users with disabilities that would impede their ability to slice cutting articles. Additionally, the cutting board apparatus provides a safe cutting platform for new and inexperienced users. The cutting board apparatus contains a cutting board base, at least one hinge, and at least one cutting article holder. Each of the cutting article holders is hingedly connected adjacent to the cutting board base through one of the at least one hinge. The user can place a cutting article along the cutting board base. The user can then rotate the cutting article holder adjacent to the cutting article, where the cutting article holder will secure the cutting article in place atop the base. The user can then use any type of cutting implement to perform slicing operations without having their assist hand close to the cutting article.

Systems and methods for controlling tension in a ribbon spooling assembly are provided. In one embodiment, the invention relates to a ribbon tension control assembly for maintaining substantially constant tension in a ribbon, the assembly including a payout core having a cylindrical shape, a first ribbon spool mounted on the payout core and attached thereto, a second ribbon spool mounted on the payout core, the second ribbon spool configured to move independent from the payout core, a takeup core configured to receive a ribbon from each of the first ribbon spool and second ribbon spool, and a load applicator configured to limit movement of the second ribbon spool.

A method and apparatus to digitize three-dimensional objects. A projection assembly is retained in fixed relation to an imaging assembly. The projection assembly projects a fixed gradient light pattern into a focal zone of the imaging assembly. The imaging assembly integrates the illumination over time such that the fixed gradient reveals the features of the three dimensional object.

Digitizer using plural capture methods to image features of 3-D objects

A method and apparatus capable of using two or more capture methods to create three-dimensional representations of a target captured. Elements of the three-dimensional digital representation generated from the plural capture method are combined to yield a single digital three-dimensional representation having improved quality.

Three dimensional digitizer using multiple methods

A high performance rotary axis. An upper and lower unit are coupled together by a pair of bearings to permit relative rotation between the units. The bearings are biased relative to others along a link to reduce play between the bearings. A processor and sensor provide for detection of relative positions between the units. A floating stop may be provided to permit rotation about the axis in greater than 360&deg;.
