A process for determining and indicating an incremental point on a target surface comprises independently rotating a first laser to project a first laser point on the target surface; independently rotating a second laser to project a second laser point on the target surface; measuring an angle of rotation for each of the first laser and the second laser; and based on the measured angle of rotation for each of the first laser and the second laser, calculating a target angle of rotation corresponding to an incremental point between the first laser point and the second laser point on the target surface. A third laser is independently rotated until it reaches the target angle of rotation and projects a third laser point at the incremental point on the target surface.

Increment measuring device and process

A device for measuring an increment on a surface comprises a housing having a left light source, a right light source and center light source each configured to project a light beam onto a target surface. Each light source is independently rotatable, and in communication with a rotation measuring element configured to measure a degree of rotation of each respective light source. A computing unit is configured to receive a measured degree of rotation value from the rotation measuring element for each of the left light source and the right light source, and to calculate a rotation target value for the center light source corresponding to a desired incremental point on the target surface between a projected left light beam from the left light source and a projected right light beam from the right light source, such that the center light source can be rotated according to the rotation target value and project a center light beam at the desired incremental point.

A panel system has an insulating material with a first channel disposed over a surface of the insulating material. A transporter is disposed over the first channel. A thermal transfer medium is disposed over the surface of the first panel to attain desired surface characteristics. The first panel includes a second channel intersecting the first channel. A second panel includes a second channel. The first panel is adjacent to the second panel. The first and second channels of the adjacent first and second panels are aligned. The transporter is disposed over the first and second channels. The first and second panels are mounted over a mounting surface. Keyways are formed in the channels. Retention clips are disposed over the keyways. Panels include panel wings with hinges mounted over the panel wings. The thermal transfer medium includes graphite. The transporter includes tubing.

A tool for realigning or straightening the strings of a racquet. The tool has a generally rectangular tip which is precisely dimensioned to fit within the normal space between the strings of a racquet. To realign the racquet strings, the tip is placed into the space defined by the strings and the strings are automatically adjusted to their preferred alignment. The string straightening tool is portable and compact, allowing the user to carry the device on his/her person and to use the device during lulls in play during the game.

A UV-curable acrylate base adhesive composition for digital versatile discs and other substrates, a method for bonding verstile digital disc layers together with a UV-curable adhesive, and a digital versatile disc bonded by a UV-curable or a radiation curable adhesive. The adhesive comprises acrylate functional components, non-acrylate reactive diluents (e.g. having acrylamide, or N-vinyl functionality) and thiol compounds.

Radiation curable adhesive for digital versatile disc

Cationic and hybrid radiation-curable pressure sensitive adhesive compositions for digital versatile discs and other substrates, a method for bonding versatile digital disc layers together with a cationic or hybrid radiation-curable pressure sensitive adhesive, and a digital versatile disc bonded by cationic or hybrid radiation-curable pressure sensitive adhesive.
