Publication number: 20240177121Abstract: Described herein are methods and systems for generating and applying vehicle maintenance models to vehicle telematics data. A vehicle telematics analytics (VTA) computing device is configured to receive vehicle telematics data associated with operation of a subject vehicle, and apply the received vehicle telematics data to a vehicle maintenance model to determine whether the operation of the subject vehicle is better or worse than standard operation of like vehicles. The VTA computing device may adjust a maintenance cost and/or determine if a user of the vehicle is eligible for a reward based upon this determination. The VTA computing device is configured to transmit an itemized report to the user including the adjusted maintenance cost and/or the reward as well as one or more other vehicle costs.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 2, 2024Publication date: May 30, 2024Inventors: Joseph Robert Brannan, Ryan Michael Gross, Matthew Eric Riley, SR., Darwin Gene Beachy, Michael Aaron Myers, Brian N. Harvey, Benjamin Joel Tucker, Scott Thomas Christensen

Patent number: 11995771Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for automatically assigning weights to vertices of a skin or mesh that control how said vertices in the 3D model move under the influence of skeletal rotation and translation. A computing device can receive a first model weightings matrix. Next, the computing device can include adjusting the number of rows in the first model weightings matrix to generate an adjusted model weightings matrix with a number of rows that matches an input number of rows for a machine-learning model, each row in the adjusted model weightings matrix representing a vertex of a mesh applied to a three-dimensional model. Then, the computing device can apply the machine learning model to the adjusted model weightings matrix, to generate an output polygonal mesh model weightings matrix.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2022Date of Patent: May 28, 2024Assignee: UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA RESEARCH FOUNDATION, INC.Inventors: John L. Gibbs, Benjamin Robert Flanders, Dylan Scott Pozorski

Publication number: 20240168273Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure disclose methods and systems for actively monitoring an opto-fluidic instrument for vibrational disturbances and correcting images obtained during the detected disturbances. In various embodiments, an optical imaging system may acquire Z-stack images of samples supported by an XY-stage. Vibrations can cause individual stacks to be sheared, i.e., to not be co-located with respect to neighboring Z-stacks. In various embodiments, an offset between the measured positions and the expected positions of the sheared stacks may be computed, and a determination as to whether to correct or reacquire the Z-stack images may be made based at least in part on the computed offset.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 14, 2023Publication date: May 23, 2024Applicant: 10x Genomics, Inc.Inventors: Adam Joseph MONKOWSKI, Elijah ROBERTS, Benjamin PRUITT

Patent number: 11986994Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the use of occluding fluids, such as a high-density fluid (a “z-fluid”) or a low-density fluid (an “a-fluid”), to displace resin within a vat during 3D printing. Further, an a-fluid may act as a protective boundary for a 3D printing resin wherein the a-fluid sits on top of the printing resin. Another embodiment of the disclosure provides a process of assessing which regions of a computer-aided design (CAD) model take advantage of a buoying force supplied by the occluding fluid, such that fewer support structures are needed for printing a final CAD model compared to printing the CAD model without the occluding fluid.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2021Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Adaptive 3D Technologies, LLCInventors: Benjamin Robert Lund, Caleb Lund, Xun Han

Publication number: 20240159689Abstract: Digital image correlation is provided. The method comprises applying two or more unique X-ray attenuating patterns to a number of test samples and then applying physical deformation to the test samples. The test samples are irradiated concurrently with an X-ray source, and a path-integrated composite X-ray image is recorded that superimposes the unique X-ray attenuating patterns on each other. According to the path-integrated composite X-ray image, the method determines respective deformation of each of the unique X-ray attenuating patterns produced by the physical deformation of the test samples.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 1, 2023Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventors: Elizabeth M. C. Jones, Caroline Winters, Enrico C. Quintana, Benjamin Roberts Halls, Samuel Saiid Fayad, Dayna Glen Obenauf

Publication number: 20240157266Abstract: A special effect system may include fog generation equipment configured to generate fog, a show element comprising one or more compartments, and a controller communicatively coupled to the fog generation equipment. The fog generation equipment may include one or more positive pressure sources and one or more negative pressure sources. The controller may perform operations comprising applying negative pressure from the one or more negative pressure sources to the one or more compartments for a period of time, permitting the fog to enter the one or more compartments after the period of negative pressure, and applying a positive pressure from the one or more positive pressure sources to cause the fog to exit the one or more compartments to trigger a combustion effect.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2022Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventors: Benjamin Robert Clark, Robert J. Cortelyou, Matthew Robert Rossett

Patent number: 11981492Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to an insulative protective packaging material constructed using recyclable paper materials. The packaging material includes one or more plies of paper adhered to each other. The one or more plies can have protrusions that form gas pockets. The gas pockets can be sealed by another ply to provide shock absorbency and insulation. Further, the plies can be used in multiple ways such as by nesting the protrusions of one ply into the recessed of another ply, layering multiple plies on top of each other, or individually. Each ply can be substantially flat or have protrusions. The protrusions can be made in various ways such as alternating the directions that they extend and varying the shapes of the protrusions. The resulting packaging material can be used as a shipping container or as liners within shipping containers.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2020Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: TFORM, INC.Inventors: Benjamin Edward Lee Moore, Wesley Robert Johnson

Publication number: 20240140199Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to perform a vehicle function. A vehicle function command is detected and it is determined if an event moved is active. In response to a determination that the event mode is active, an event mode parameter is retrieved. Otherwise, in response to a determination that the event mode is not active, a normal mode parameter is retrieved. The vehicle function is performed based on the retrieved event mode parameter or normal mode parameter.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Wassym Bensaid, Benjamin Noah Drobiz, Adam Jarrett Smith, Erik Robert Glaser, Gyeong Sik Choi, Emily Joan Wilson, David McKerron Anderson
