An embodiment of the system of the present invention generally comprises an automated mailpiece sorting apparatus and method and more particularly, the system generally comprises a pre-feeding apparatus, a diverter, a collection module, a mailpiece sorting apparatus. Other embodiments are described and claimed. The contacts are contained within the housing with their ends extending from the housing on either side. The payload includes a computational module and an integrated sensor suite including a global positioning system, an inertial measurement unit, and a stereo vision camera. The present invention further provides other devices or the like that are advantageous in achieving mass storage, as with the above magnetic memory device. The end placement of the stripes of binder-detackifier allow the user to control the amount of detackifier transferred to the gloves used by the user while applying the bandage both during cast construction and during the final formation.
