Publication number: 20240140154Abstract: A breakaway mitigation system is provided for addressing breakaway between a tractor and a trailer unit of a truck. The breakaway mitigation system can include a spool assembly, a sensor, and a controller. The spool assembly has a spool body configured to deploy a length of a tether coupled with the spool body and configured to couple with an energy source supply conduit and to retract the length of the tether. The energy source supply conduit is configured to convey a source of energy for use by a motor or by a fuel cell. The sensor is configured to detect the length of the tether that has been deployed. The controller is configured to receive an input corresponding to the detected length and to implement a countermeasure when the detected amount exceeds a threshold value. Mitigation can be provided by a coupler that decouples under a load over a threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2024Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Ethan J. McKibben, Jordan C. Foster, Chris Forsberg, Andrew Taylor Gordon, Momchil Yordanov, Adam Attila Bosze, Aaron Heffelfinger

Publication number: 20230144210Abstract: An electronic device includes a processor that performs a basic input/output system (BIOS) process to initialize hardware of the electronic device upon a first start up. The processor determines, within the BIOS process, that initialization of an operating system (OS) on the electronic device has not been performed. The processor waits to receive a user input indicating that the user is ready to initialize the OS, thus protecting the OS initialization process from unintended interruptions such as power loss that can cause the OS initialization to fail irreparably. Upon receiving the user input, the processor begins the OS initialization.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 10, 2022Publication date: May 11, 2023Applicant: Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Ian Olson, Huba Leidenfrost, John D. Prestwich, Ryan Lowell Hendrickson, Jennice Rinderknecht, Aaron Taylor

Patent number: 10335317Abstract: Eyewear is disclosed that can have multiple ventilation states providing different amounts of ventilation through the eyewear. The eyewear can include a lens and a frame. In some embodiments, the lens can be movable with respect to the frame to provide the multiple ventilation states. In some embodiments, the eyewear can include a gasket that removably attaches to the frame. In some embodiments, the gasket can be movable with respect to the frame to provide the multiple ventilation states.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2017Date of Patent: July 2, 2019Assignee: Oakley, Inc.Inventors: Joel Cater, Chris Dawson, Anton Ivanov, Myong Kim, Aaron Taylor, Josh Gallegos, David Ginther, Jason Hutchison

Patent number: 10076149Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods, etc., that provide, in certain aspects, a two-point, adjustable, partially pliable, and releasable tensioning suspension that supports an anti-blunt-force frame connected to a protective helmet. The protective devices herein can be, for example, “sport-level” and “military/law enforcement-level.” The anti-blunt-force frame is positioned and balanced on the wearer's face by an impact absorbing face padding system, including a chin strap, cup or pad comprised of an impact protection material. Thus, in one aspect, the present devices, systems, methods, etc., include an adjustable facial protection system for a human comprising a crescent-shaped face protection element configured to withstand blunt force impact and a ballistic material element to prevent the penetration of ballistic and fragmentation projectiles at various force levels to meet different ballistic hazards. The systems can also include a protective helmet.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2014Date of Patent: September 18, 2018Assignee: Eye Safety Systems, Inc.Inventors: Brian Ross, Aaron Taylor, Chris Randolph Dawson, Joshua Robert Gallegos

Publication number: 20150346938Abstract: A computing device is configured to provide over a network an ability to create variable data custom multi-media files. In one example, a computing device imports a data file including an array of output files over a network. The computing device provides a user interface for a requesting computing device to manipulate a video template with layers are associated with display of an output during. The computing device receives a request to assign columns from the array to layers of the timeline. The computing device processes the data file and the requests to render variable data custom multi-media files, and makes them available to the requesting computer device. The variable data custom multi-media files display output over the time periods associated with the timeline layers that is based on the assigned array of output files.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2015Publication date: December 3, 2015Inventors: Baron Gerhardt, John Malec, Sam Melton, Aaron Taylor

Patent number: 9110572Abstract: A computing device is configured to provide over a network an ability to create a 2.5D full motion custom multi-media file. In one example, a computing device makes available to a user a plurality of stored video templates into which a user may insert custom video, photos, and/or text. The computing device provides a low resolution preview of the custom video to the user over the network connection. The user then has the ability to edit the custom video prior to finalization. The computing device receives signals indicating purchase or licensing credentials and in response to receiving such credentials, finalizes and delivers a 2.5D video for the user. So configured, a user can relatively cheaply and quickly create video content such as an advertisement having modern visual features such as 2.5D video in a cost efficient and timely manner.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2013Date of Patent: August 18, 2015Assignee: Visible Spectrum, Inc.Inventors: Baron Gerhardt, John Malec, Sam Melton, Aaron Taylor
