A recording and entertainment system is provided. A mobile kiosk is capable or being outfitted with one or more cameras for capturing visual content, an audio recording system, a display device, a computer to control recording, storing, processing, and playing the captured visual and audio content. The captured video and audio are then processed and edited to produce remembrance products in various forms, including videos. Karaoke function is provided by a means for recognizing songs being performed and displaying lyrics on the display. Camera tilt, noise suppression, noise cancelation, voice control of the computer, a battery pack to free kiosk for movement, means for internet communication of the visual and audio content, means for confirming that objects of the visual content capture are within the field of view, robotic control of the kiosk, and interactive gaming means are additional features that can be utilized with the system.

Recording and entertainment system

Described is an improved process for producing chemically treated fillers by using a certain combination of functionalizing and hydrophobizing agents in an aqueous suspension of inorganic oxide having a pH of 2.5 or less and increasing the pH of the suspension after chemically treating the filler.

Process for producing chemically treated amorphous precipitated silica

Described is an improved process for producing chemically modified fillers by using a certain combination of functionalizing and hydrophobizing agents in an aqueous suspension of inorganic oxide having a pH of 2.5 or less and increasing the pH of the suspension after chemically treating the filler.

Process for producing chemically modified amorphous precipitated silica

Described is a printable microporous material exhibiting enhanced readability of one or more images, e.g., printed indicia, patterns, and designs, applied thereupon. The printable microporous material of the present invention comprises: a matrix of substantially water-insoluble thermoplastic organic polymer, e.g., ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene, finely divided, substantially water-insoluble non-color producing particulate filler, e.g., precipitated silica, a network of interconnecting pores communicating substantially throughout the material, and an amount of blue colorant sufficient to improve the readability of printing, e.g., two-dimensional bar codes, present thereon.

Printable microporous material

Very thin microporous material comprises a matrix of substantially linear polyolefin, finely divided substantially water-insoluble filler particles distributed throughout the matrix, and a network of interconnecting pores communicating substantially throughout said microporous material. The very thin microporous material can be produced by the blown film process. The material is used as a separator in a battery.
