the specific details , or with other methods , components , materials , and so forth . in other instances , well - known structures , materials or operations are not shown or described in detail to avoid obscuring aspects of the invention . the schematic flow chart diagrams included herein are generally set forth as logical flow chart diagrams . as such , the depicted order and labeled steps are indicative of one embodiment method . other steps and methods may be conceived that are equivalent in function , logic , or effect to one or more steps , or portions thereof , of the illustrated method . additionally , the format and symbols employed are provided to explain the logical steps of the method and are understood not to limit the scope of the method . although various arrow types and line types may be employed are provided in the flow chart diagrams , they are understood not to limit the scope of the corresponding method . indeed , some arrows or other connectors may be used to indicate only the logical flow of the method . for instance , an arrow may indicate a waiting or monitoring period of unspecified duration between enumerated steps of the depicted method . additionally , the order in which a particular method occurs may or may not strictly adhere to the order of the corresponding steps shown . while methods , devices , compositions , and the like , have been described in terms of what are presently considered to be the most practical and preferred implementations , it is to be understood that the disclosure need not be limited to the disclosed implementations . it is intended to cover various modifications and similar arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the claims , the scope of which should be accorded the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all such modifications and similar structures . the present disclosure includes any and all implementations of the following claims . it is understood that the term , present disclosure , in the context of a description of a component , characteristic , or step , of one particular embodiment of the disclosure , does not imply or mean that all embodiments of the disclosure comprise that particular component , characteristic , or step . it should also be understood that a variety of changes may be made without departing from the essence of the disclosure . such changes are also implicitly included in the description . they still fall within the scope of this disclosure . it should be understood that this disclosure is intended to yield a patent covering numerous aspects of the disclosure both independently and as an overall system and in both method and apparatus modes . further , each of the various elements of the disclosure and claims may also be achieved in a variety of manners . this disclosure should be understood to encompass each such variation , be it a variation of an implementation of any apparatus implementation , a method or process implementation , or even merely a variation of any element of these . particularly , it should be understood that as the disclosure relates to elements of the disclosure , the words for each element may be expressed by equivalent apparatus terms or method terms — even if only the function or result is the same . such equivalent , broader , or even more generic terms should be considered to be encompassed in the description of each element or action . such terms can be substituted where desired to make explicit the implicitly broad coverage to which this disclosure is entitled . it should be understood that all actions may be expressed as a means for taking that action or as an element which causes that action . similarly , each physical element disclosed should be understood to encompass a disclosure of the action which that physical element facilitates . any patents , publications , or other references mentioned in this application for patent are hereby incorporated by

however , as to each of the above , to the extent that such information or statements incorporated by reference might be considered inconsistent with the patenting of this / these disclosure ( s ), such statements are expressly not to be considered as made by the applicant ( s ). in this regard it should be understood that for practical reasons and so as to avoid adding potentially hundreds of claims , the applicant has presented claims with initial dependencies only . support should be understood to exist to the degree required under new matter laws — including but not limited to united states patent law 35 usc § 132 or other such laws — to permit the addition of any of the various dependencies or other elements presented under one independent claim or concept as dependencies or elements under any other independent claim or concept . to the extent that insubstantial substitutes are made , to the extent that the applicant did not in fact draft any claim so as to literally encompass any particular implementation , and to the extent otherwise applicable , the applicant should not be understood to have in any way intended to or actually relinquished such coverage as the applicant simply may not have been able to anticipate all eventualities ; one skilled in the art , should not be reasonably expected to have drafted a claim that would have literally encompassed such alternative implementations . further , the use of the transitional phrase “ comprising ” is used to maintain the “ open - end ” claims herein , according to traditional claim interpretation . thus , unless the context requires otherwise , it should be understood that the term “ compromise ” or variations such as “ comprises ” or “ comprising ”, are intended to imply the inclusion of a stated element or step or group of elements or steps but not the exclusion of any other element or step or group of elements or steps . such terms should be interpreted in their most expansive forms so as to afford the applicant the broadest coverage legally permissible .
