  • Patent number: 10391889
    Abstract: A system for controlling a seat of a vehicle includes a relax mode to ensure ride quality to a passenger seated on a rear seat and sequentially drive respective electrically-powered portions of the rear seat to positions to secure the ride quality, a monitor mode to sequentially drive the respective electrically-powered portions of the rear seat so as to view a monitor apparatus primarily attached to a rear surface of a front seat, a reading mode to sequentially drive the respective electrically-powered portion of the rear seat so as to allow the passenger to perform reading by using a lighting lamp attached to a rear seat region, and a return mode to sequentially drive the respective electrically-powered portions of the front seat and the rear seat to positions just before moving the front seat and the rear seat to predetermined standard portions or the positions of the respective modes.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9947749
    Abstract: Certain embodiments of the present invention include a versatile and scalable process, “patterned regrowth,” that allows for the spatially controlled synthesis of lateral junctions between electrically conductive graphene and insulating h-BN, as well as between intrinsic and substitutionally doped graphene. The resulting films form mechanically continuous sheets across these heterojunctions. These embodiments represent an element of developing atomically thin integrated circuitry and enable the fabrication of electrically isolated active and passive elements embedded in continuous, one atom thick sheets, which may be manipulated and stacked to form complex devices at the ultimate thickness limit.
