Patent number: 11919499Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating data indicative of a friction associated with a driving surface, and for using the friction data in association with one or more vehicles. In one example, a computing system can detect a stop associated with a vehicle and initiate a steering action of the vehicle during the stop. The steering action is associated with movement of at least one tire of the vehicle relative to a driving surface. The computing system can obtain operational data associated with the steering action during the stop of the vehicle. The computing system can determine a friction associated with the driving surface based at least in part on the operational data associated with the steering action. The computing system can generate data indicative of the friction associated with the driving surface.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignees: UATC, LLC, VOLVO CAR CORPORATIONInventors: Scott C.

Publication number: 20050242301Abstract: Radiation from a spectrally broad radiation source is reduced to radiation of limited spectral range with high efficiency by an emitter that includes a radiation source and a multilayer optical coating that reflects radiation of certain wavelengths back toward the source, allowing other wavelengths to pass. The multilayer optical coating provides a high efficiency reflectance, thereby minimizing loss of radiation energy despite limiting the escaping energy to one or more narrow selected wavelength bands. The resulting radiation is useful in treating a host to destroy or deactivate undesirable pathogens, cells, or tissues.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 10, 2005Publication date: November 3, 2005Applicant: Advanced Light Technologies, LLC, a corporation of the state of CaliforniaInventor: Brian Pierce
