## Abstract

Products and devices are described for displaying a visible marker on a screen. Some embodiments disclose using different weave patterns and/or density patterns to create the visible marker. Other embodiments disclose using different colors of thread to create the visible marker. The present disclosure also describes methods for manufacturing or displaying the visible marker on the screen.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A screen product adapted to:
enclose a space to protect the space from debris;
display a first pattern that is configured to achieve a first transparency; and
display a second pattern that is configured to achieve a second transparency, such that the screen product can be visually detected based on the second pattern.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The screen product of claim 1, wherein the screen product includes a longitudinal thread that extends along a first direction and a widthwise thread that extends along a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the longitudinal thread and the widthwise thread are weaved to form a mesh, and wherein the first pattern and the widthwise thread of the second pattern are black or charcoal in color, and the longitudinal thread of the second pattern is white in color.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The screen product of claim 2, further comprising a frame that engages the screen product, and wherein the second pattern extends along an entire length of the screen product in the first direction, such that the second pattern is parallel to a surface of the frame.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The screen product of claim 1, wherein the second pattern extends approximately 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) in the second direction.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The screen product of claim 4, wherein the second pattern has a center point that defines a middle of the second pattern with respect to the second direction, and wherein the second pattern is repeated approximately every 24 inches (60.96 centimeters) in the second direction, such that the center points are approximately 24 inches (60.96 centimeters) apart.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The screen product of claim 1, wherein the screen product defines a density that is defined by a number of longitudinal threads per inch (ends/inch), and wherein the density of the second pattern is greater than the density of the first pattern.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The screen product of claim 6, wherein the density of the second pattern is 36 ends/inch (91.44 ends/centimeter) and first pattern density is 18 ends/inch (45.72 ends/centimeter).

### Claim 8 (depends on 2)

The screen product of claim 2, wherein the longitudinal thread and the widthwise thread are made from a material selected from the group consisting of stainless steel, vinyl coated fiberglass yarn, and fiberglass, and wherein the longitudinal thread and widthwise thread are 0.006 inches (0.01524 centimeters) to 0.011 inches (0.02794 centimeters) in diameter.

### Claim 9

A screen product comprising:
a screen configured to be removably received by a frame, the screen comprising:
a longitudinal thread that extends along a first direction; and
a widthwise thread that extends along a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the longitudinal thread and the widthwise thread are weaved to form a mesh that includes a first pattern configured to achieve a first transparency and a second pattern configured to achieve a second transparency.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The screen product of claim 9, wherein the first pattern and the widthwise thread of the second pattern are black or charcoal in color and the longitudinal thread of the second pattern is white in color.

### Claim 11 (depends on 9)

The screen product of claim 9, wherein the second pattern extends approximately 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) in the second direction and has a center point that defines a middle of the second pattern with respect to the second direction, and wherein the second pattern is repeated approximately every 24 inches (60.96 centimeters) in the second direction, such that the center points are approximately 24 inches (60.96 centimeters) apart.

### Claim 12 (depends on 9)

The screen product of claim 9, wherein the mesh defines a density that is defined by a number of longitudinal threads per inch (ends/inch), and wherein the density of the second pattern is greater than the density of the first pattern.

### Claim 13 (depends on 9)

The screen product of claim 9, wherein the longitudinal thread and the widthwise thread are made from a material selected from the group consisting of stainless steel, vinyl coated fiberglass yarn, and fiberglass, and wherein the longitudinal thread and widthwise thread are 0.006 inches (0.01524 centimeters) to 0.011 inches (0.02794 centimeters) in diameter.

### Claim 14

A method of manufacturing a screen product that includes a longitudinal thread that extends along a first direction and a widthwise thread that extends along a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction, the method comprising:
weaving the longitudinal thread and the widthwise thread to form a mesh; and
configuring the mesh to form a first pattern configured to achieve a first transparency and a second pattern configured to achieve a second transparency.
