Abstract: A surgical robotic system includes at least one eye tracking system positioned detect the direction of at least one user's gaze. Input derived from the eye tracking system may be used to enter commands to the surgical robotic system depending on the directions of the gaze detected or other aspects of the gaze such as pupil dilation or speed of eye movement.

Abstract: Inspection devices and methods for inspecting an adhesive pattern on a substrate are disclosed. The inspection device includes at least one sensor having a heat sensor head for detecting a pattern of the adhesive bead, and a controller. Reference data representing a desired adhesive pattern is initially provided to a controller. A predetermined tolerance range for the desired adhesive pattern is also provided to the controller. An adhesive bead is discharged onto a substrate from a nozzle. A pattern of the discharged adhesive bead is then detected by the sensor when the substrate moves. Signals representing the detected pattern are received from the sensor at the controller. Finally, the signals representing the detected adhesive pattern are compared to the tolerance range of the desired adhesive pattern.

Abstract: A method of implementing a mobility as a service policy may include associating an identifier with a mobility service policy. The method may include assigning the mobility service policy to at least one mobility service provider of a plurality of mobility service providers. The method may include setting at least one usage restriction for the mobility service policy. The at least one usage restriction may limit operation of the at least one mobility service provider when the policy is activated. The method may include setting a geographical restriction associated with the mobility service policy. The method may include setting a time restriction associated with when the mobility service policy is to be active. The method may include enabling the mobility service policy.

Abstract: A group of motor vehicles contains at least vehicles of two different vehicle types of the following vehicle types: a battery drive vehicle with only one electric motor drive, a hybrid drive vehicle with an electric motor drive and an internal combustion engine drive, a fuel cell drive vehicle with a fuel cell drive, and an internal combustion engine drive vehicle with only one internal combustion engine drive. All of the vehicle types of the group of motor vehicles have a base assembly with a left-side sill structure, a right-side sill structure, an upper base, a lower base, and a central tunnel structure.

Abstract: A method for conditionally redeeming transportation credits through a transportation credit program having a sponsor may include verifying, through a validation network provider across a computer network, a recipient's eligibility for a transportation credit having one or more redemption conditions, issuing the transportation credit to the recipient, transmitting the transportation credit to a transportation service provider through the validation network provider across the computer network, and enforcing one or more of the redemption conditions by monitoring one or more of the redemption conditions using a mobile computing device.
