A substrate usable with a double-side adhesive strip to suspend the substrate to a wall surface. The substrate can have one or more access holes located within an outer perimeter of the substrate. Each access hole has an inner perimeter inwardly of the outer perimeter that is sized and shaped to allow a tab of the double-sided adhesive strip to be extracted through the inner perimeter, after the substrate is suspended on the wall surface. Various articles can attach to the suspended substrate, such as through magnetic attachment, a hook, or a shelf.

Moisture-erasable note taking system
12344026 · 2025-07-01 · ·

A method of reusing a notebook provides a notebook having a synthetic-paper page. The method also provides a thermochromic ink pen which, when used to write on the synthetic paper page, leaves thermochromic ink markings. The method further provides a moisture carrier configured to have a liquid diffused therein. The moisture carrier is configured to erase the thermochromic ink markings from the synthetic-paper page by contacting the thermochromic ink markings when the moisture carrier is moist. The method then writes with thermochromic ink on at least a portion of the synthetic-paper page. Liquid is diffused in the moisture carrier, and the portion of the synthetic-paper page having the thermochromic ink is wiped with the moist moisture carrier, such that the thermochromic ink is erased from the synthetic-paper page.

A system for capturing, organizing, and storing handwritten notes includes a plurality of boundary markers. The boundary markers are configured to be positioned on a writing surface. The system also includes a tangible non-transitory computer readable medium encoded with instructions which, when run on a camera-equipped computing device, causes the camera-equipped computing device to execute processes. The processes include capturing an image of the writing surface with the markers thereon. The processes also include detecting the boundary markers in the captured image. Additionally, the processes include identifying a virtual boundary in the captured image based on the positions of the boundary markers. The processes then unwarp a portion of the captured image within the virtual boundary to produce an unwarped image.

Identifying and redacting captured data

An evidence ecosystem that includes a capture system that detects physical properties in the environment around the capture system and captures data related to the physical properties. The capture system analyzes the captured data in accordance with patterns to detect characteristics and patterns in the captured data. Upon detecting a characteristic or a pattern, the capture system records the identified data and alignment data that identifies the location of the identified data in the captured data. The capture system sends the captured data, identified data, and alignment data to an evidence management system for use in generating reports and producing redacted copies of the captured data for distribution or presentation.

WHITEBOARD SUBSTRATE WITH MOUNTING BASE
20250273096 · 2025-08-28 ·

A customizable play character system includes a play character and a base. The play character is formed from a semi-flexible substrate with printed indicia forming an internal design on the substrate's design face. An outer edge of the substrate forms a design outline, and the internal design and the design outline combine to create a first character. A stabilizing contour is formed along the bottom edge of substrate. The base has a top, a bottom, and an outer wall, and a contoured retention slot for receiving the play character. The contoured retention slot has a plurality of contact nodes structured to create a flexural deformation in the semi-flexible substrate when inserted into the slot. In some embodiments, the base is configured with a plurality of retention slots.
