20100073756	PATTERNED POLARIZATION-SENSITIVE OPTICAL ELEMENTS AND DEVICES USING THE SAME - In general, in one aspect, the invention features an apparatus that includes a plurality of optical elements arranged to form an image of an object. The elements include a first element comprising one or more regions of a polarizing material, the regions being shaped as one or more visual features, a polarizer, and a mounting assembly including a first mount for the first element and a second mount for the polarizer. At least the first or second mount is rotatable with respect to an optical axis between a first orientation and a second orientation. In the first orientation, the visual features are visible in the image of the object and, in the second orientation, the visual features are not visible in the image of the object.	03-25-2010
20100291489	EXPOSURE METHODS FOR FORMING PATTERNED LAYERS AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING THE SAME - Methods include providing an article including a substrate, a first layer supported by the substrate, and an interface between the substrate and the first layer. The substrate is substantially transparent to radiation at a wavelength λ and the first layer is formed from a photoresist. The methods include exposing the first layer to radiation by directing radiation at λ through the substrate to impinge on the interface so that the radiation experiences total internal reflection at the interface.	11-18-2010

20090143785	MEDICAL IMPACT TOOL ADAPTOR AND METHOD - The present invention may provide for a medical impact tool adaptor for coupling with a medical impact tool and a method for applying an impact force to a medical instrument. The impact tool adaptor may comprise a main body and connector with a first attaching member and a second attaching member. The second attaching member may be pivotally coupled with the main body and may pivot between an opened position and a closed position relative to the first attaching member. The second attaching member may be releasably secured in a closed position via a movable lock mechanism. The first and second attaching members may be coupled to a medical tool via corresponding first and second attaching interfaces. In some embodiments, the impact tool adaptor may be pivotally coupled to the medical tool. Further, the impact tool adaptor may be releasably and/or pivotally coupled to the impact tool.	06-04-2009
20100069923	Suture Anchor Inserter - The present disclosure relates to a suture anchor inserter. The suture anchor inserter includes a handle having a proximal component, a central component coupled to the proximal component, and a distal component coupled to the proximal component and the central component, the central component capable of rotating relative to the proximal component; and a shaft comprising a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end coupled to the handle. A method of inserting a suture anchor into bone is also disclosed.	03-18-2010

20090111462	Location Based Services Quality Assessment - A technique to gather and assess the quality of a location based services provided to a mobile wireless device via a wireless network includes providing location-based service information by referring to a target location of a requested item of interest within a proximity of the present location of the mobile wireless device. Subjective quality or accuracy information can be submitted to the wireless network from the from the wireless device. The subjective quality or accuracy information is correlated with event and condition information affecting the wireless network. Reports can be generated which indicate the quality and accuracy information of the target location information. The reports are useful for troubleshooting location-based service inaccuracy.	04-30-2009
