Device feedback and input via heating and cooling
A thermoelectric display including an array of thermoelectric devices is used to provide output to a user in the form of thermal feedback. The thermal feedback may be used to provide navigation cues to the user to enable eyes-free navigation. The thermal feedback may be used to provide target acquisition cues to enable the user to accurately target a contact point on a touchscreen. The thermal feedback may be used to convey an emotive aspect of a message to the user. The thermal feedback may be used to identify to the user a caller associated with an incoming call. The thermoelectric display may be, alternatively or additionally, used to provide input to another device, such as a mobile device to which the thermoelectric display is operatively coupled.

DEVICE FOR CREATING AND DISPLAYING LIQUID-MEDIUM MOVEMENT WITHIN A VESSEL CONTAINING A DIORAMIC SCENE
A dioramic apparatus includes a vessel having an inferior portion and a superior portion. The vessel includes a shell and defines an interior space. The interior space is partially filled by a liquid medium. At least one dioramic scene is disposed in the interior space. A reservoir is in fluid communication with the interior space. The reservoir includes a flow plate defining at least one liquid intake and at least one liquid output port. The at least one liquid intake is configured and arranged for receiving at least a portion of the liquid medium from the interior space when the dioramic apparatus is at least partially inverted. The at least one liquid output port is configured and arranged to output at least a portion of the liquid medium from the reservoir when the vessel is placed in an upright position.
Foldable temporary and portable road sign structure
A portable temporary road sign structure comprises a sheet material substrate cut into a flat pattern having three interconnected panels: a display panel; a base panel; and a brace panel. The panels are formed to enable deployment into a self-supporting configuration in which the display panel is held upright when the base panel is placed on the ground. For transportation between sites the base and brace panels can be folded flat against the display panel whereby respective handle align for ease of carrying. Various apertures and formations are provided to enable the road sign structure to be held in place, when deployed, by roadside fixtures or weighted bollards.
Evacuation guidance device for rescue
The present disclosure relates to an evacuation guidance device for rescue, and more particularly, to an evacuation guidance device for rescue, which is capable of securing an evacuation route through a linear illuminator to guide an evacuee to a safety zone and bidirectionally communicating with a rescue agent to evaluate a rescue situation, when an emergency situation occurs in a building due to fire, power failure, a gas leakage, and the like. In the evacuation guidance device for rescue according to the present disclosure, a position of the bobbin unit may be identified through the first and second position notifying luminescence members so that there is an advantage in which position determination of the evacuee or the rescue agent may be easy.
