20160070113 | VARIABLE FOCAL BACKLIGHTING - A backlight unit includes a waveguide assembly having a first wedge and a birefringent wedge disposed adjacent to, and arranged nose-to-tail with, the first wedge, to define an interface of the waveguide assembly. The birefringent wedge has different indices of refraction for light propagating through the waveguide assembly in first and second polarization states. The first wedge is configured to propagate the light in the second polarization state at a different speed than the birefringent wedge. A liquid crystal layer is configured to selectively switch the light between the first and second polarization states. An extraction grating is configured to extract the light from the waveguide assembly at an emission angle established in accordance with an angle of incidence of the light on the extraction grating determined by an extent to which the light encountered the interface while propagating through the waveguide assembly in the second polarization state. | 03-10-2016 |

20150118218 | IMMOBILIZED PROTEIN SYSTEM FOR RAPID AND ENHANCED MULTIPLEXED DIAGNOSTICS - The disclosure relates to methods of detecting a neural injury biomarker in a biological sample. The method includes subjecting a biological sample to an assay disclosed that produces a measurable signal and detecting the measurable signal. The presence or absence of the measurable signal indicates the presence or absence of the neural injury biomarker in the sample, and thereby diagnosing a subject as having a neural injury. The disclosure further relates to methods of determining the state of a subject's neural injury. Further disclosed are systems and devices useful in carrying out the methods disclosed. | 04-30-2015 |

20150226024 | LATCHING ASSEMBLY - A latching assembly has a tubular housing having an inner surface that defines an inner bore and an outer surface. A latch moves between a latch position that extends out from the outer surface and an unlatched position that is retracted from the latch position. A latching actuator moves between a first axial position that moves the latch to the latch position and a second axial position that moves the latch to the unlatched position. A manual release moves axially in response to a mechanical force to selectively move the latching actuator to the second axial position. | 08-13-2015 |

20150103011 | Holographic Interaction Device - A holographic interaction device is described. In one or more implementations, an input device includes an input portion comprising a plurality of controls that are configured to generate signals to be processed as inputs by a computing device that is communicatively coupled to the controls. The input device also includes a holographic recording mechanism disposed over a surface of the input portion, the holographic recording mechanism is configured to output a hologram in response to receipt of light, from a light source, that is viewable by a user over the input portion. | 04-16-2015 |

20150211652 | FRANGIBLE VALVE - A frangible valve is disclosed. The frangible valve can include an outer portion operable to form a pressure boundary for a pressure vessel. The frangible valve can also include an inner portion integrally formed with the outer portion and having a central region and a separation region about a perimeter of the central region proximate the outer portion. The separation region can have a thickness less than a thickness of the central region and can be configured to break at a predetermined fluid pressure inside the pressure vessel to vent pressure from the pressure vessel. | 07-30-2015 |
20150211832 | INTERNALLY COUPLEABLE JOINT - An internally coupleable joint is disclosed. The joint can include a first component and a second component configured to mate with one another in an end-to-end relationship. An axially extending protrusion of the first component can interface with a corresponding recess of the second component. In addition, the first component and the second component can each have an internal coupling feature extending at least partially about an inner circumference of the respective component. The joint can also include a securing member having external coupling features configured to engage the internal coupling features of the first and second components to prevent separation of the first and second components. | 07-30-2015 |

20150356496 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ASSIGNING EMPLOYEES TO COVERAGE AND/OR TASKS BASED ON SCHEDULE AND PREFERENCES - A system and method for assigning employees that are schedule to work at a brick and mortar retail store location to coverage areas within the retail store and/or tasks associated with those coverage areas. The system and method takes into account the required coverage area times of each coverage area within the store location, the master schedule of employees available to work within a defined time period that is provided by a schedule management system, and management's preferences regarding coverage area priorities for or associated with certain employees, and then automatically assigns coverage to the scheduled employees based on all those variables. The system and method identifies individuals whose scheduled work shift overlaps with required coverage area times and who are preferred to work in the coverage area and assigns such individuals to work in the coverage area during the overlapping time period (or a portion thereof). | 12-10-2015 |
