20160082452 | SPRAY DEVICE - A spray device is disclosed herein comprising a reservoir having a centre; a gas inlet tube configured to introduce a gas from a gas source into the reservoir, the gas inlet tube having a proximal end for fluid connection to the gas source and a distal end within the reservoir; and outlet configured to release fluid from the reservoir, wherein the gas inlet tube is positioned to direct gas entering the reservoir away from the centre of the reservoir. The spray device may be actuated in response to detection of an event by a sensor. The spray device may spray a unique marker liquid. | 03-24-2016 |
20140207704 | METHOD FOR DETERMINING A CRIME DETERENT FACTOR - A method for determining a crime deterrent factor of a security system or security equipment includes determining a value for a traceability factor, a robustness factor, an analytics factor, a prosecutions factor and a publicity factor based on attributes of a particular security system or security equipment, wherein the value for each of the factors is determined by comparing the attributes of the particular security system or security equipment against a scale of predetermined attributes each of which have been assigned a value; (i) factoring the traceability value by the robustness value; (ii) factoring the analytics value by the prosecution value; (iii) combining the values obtained by steps (i) and (ii) by either addition or multiplication; and (iv) multiplying the value of step (iii) by the publicity value. | 07-24-2014 |
20140106072 | METHODS OF GENERATING A COMPOSITION FOR IDENTIFYING GOODS - A method of generating a composition for identifying goods, the composition comprising an indicator material and a plurality of separately identifiable trace materials combined in such a manner to produce unique trace material combinations, the method comprising: defining a group of trace materials; selecting a plurality of trace materials from the group of trace materials to produce a unique combination; maintaining a record of the trace material combination; comparing further combinations of the trace materials to the record of trace material combinations; and either: if the further combination of trace materials is not found in the record, then generating a trace material combination based on the selected plurality of trace materials and recording the generated trace material combination in the record; or if the further combination of trace materials is found in the record of trace material combinations, re-selecting a different combination of trace materials and comparing this different combination to the record of trace material combinations and repeating until a unique combination of trace materials is selected which is not found in the record of trace material combinations, then generating a trace material combination based on the selected plurality of trace materials and recording the generated trace material combination in the record. | 04-17-2014 |
20140104331 | METHOD FOR APPLYING A MARKER TO AN ELECTRICAL CABLE DURING MANUFACTURE - There is provided a method for manufacturing a uniquely identifiable cable, the method comprising: providing one or more cables including an insulating layer thereon to be wound onto a drum or reel; and applying a marker system onto the surface of the insulating layer of the one or more cables prior to or during the winding of the one or more cables onto the drum or reel. | 04-17-2014 |
20140092233 | MARKER FOR APPLICATION TO SURFACES AT HIGH AND SUSTAINED OPERATING TEMPERATURES - There is provided a marker system for applying to surfaces operating at high temperatures, the marker system comprising a marker and a temperature resilient medium capable of securing the marker system onto a high temperature surface; wherein the medium contains an inorganic matrix to secure the marker to a surface; wherein the marker comprises a fingerprint to render the marker unique; and wherein the marker system further comprises indicator material to indicate the presence of the marker. Further provided is a composition comprising the marker system. Further provided are engines, exhaust systems and/or catalytic converters or other surfaces operating at high temperatures comprising a surface impregnated with the marker system. | 04-03-2014 |
