  • Patent number: 11947354
    Abstract: An Autonomous Vehicle (AV) system is described. The AV system is capable of determining at motor control command associated with an AV trajectory. The AV system includes a content generating device, a system controller, and an AV sensor. The content generating device collects target data associated with a target. The system controller is communicatively coupled to the content generating device. The system controller extracts target features from the target data. Also, the system controller compares the extracted target features to target model data to determine a target pose. Additionally, the system controller determines the AV trajectory by comparing the target pose with at least one target objective. The AV sensor determines an AV state. The system controller determines a motor control command associated with the AV trajectory based on the AV state, the target objective, and the AV trajectory.

  • Publication number: 20150142806
    Abstract: A system and method for presenting user generated digital information. The system includes geo-located objects (GLOBs), GLOB Data Sheets (GDSs), a grouping of GLOBs, an implicit location module and a display device. The plurality of geo-located objects (GLOBs) includes at least one GLOB having a geographic location tag generated by a location component. Each GLOB Data Sheets (GDSs) among the plurality of GDSs is associated with a GLOB among the plurality of GLOBs. The grouping of GLOBs is configured to be organized based on location. The implicit location module geocodes at least one digital information objects that does not have a corresponding location by interpolating along a path between a first GLOB that has a first location determined with a first geographic location tag and a second GLOB that has a location determined with a second geographic location tag. The display device presents the organized grouping of GLOBs.

  • Patent number: 8565903
    Abstract: A system and device that communicates critical resource information is described. The resource notification system comprises a resource distributor, a resource notification server, and a networked interface device. The resource distributor generates a demand response action that is associated with a particular resource. The resource distributor is also communicatively coupled to a wide area network. The resource notification server, which is also communicatively coupled to the wide area network, receives and processes the demand response action and generates a demand response event signal that is communicated to a customer list. The networked interface device comprises at least one indicator. The networked interface device receives the demand response event signal that triggers at least one indicator corresponding to the demand response action generated by the resource distributor, wherein the indicator provides a real-time indication that corresponds to the usage of the particular resource.
