  • Patent number: 11970175
    Abstract: A system for obtaining a prediction an action (at) of a vehicle (V), including a camera for acquiring a sequence of images (Ft) a convolutional neural network visual encoder which obtains a corresponding visual features vector (vt), one or more sensor that obtains a position of the vehicle (st) at the same time step (st), a Recurrent Neural Network configured to receive the visual features vector (vt) and position of the vehicle (st) at the time step (t) and to generate a prediction of the action (at) of the vehicle (V). The system comprising a command conditioned switch configured upon reception of a control command (ci) to select a corresponding branch of the Recurrent Neural Network. The system is configured to operate the selected corresponding branch to process the visual features vector (vt) and position of the vehicle (st) at the time step (t) to obtain the prediction of the action (at) of the vehicle (V).

  • Patent number: 11916190
    Abstract: A method for producing a solid electrolyte for an all-solid state battery, the solid electrolyte having the following chemical formula XM2(PS4)3, where X is lithium (Li), sodium (Na), silver (Ag) or magnesium (Mg0,5) and M is titanium (Ti), zirconium (Zr), germanium (Ge), silicon (Si), tin (Sn) or a mixture of X and aluminium (X+Al) and the method including: mixing powders so as to obtain a powder mixture; pressing a component with powder mixture; and sintering component for a period of time equal to or greater than 100 hours so as to obtain the solid electrolyte. The solid electrolyte exhibits the peaks in positions of 2?=13.64° (±1°), 13.76° (±1°), 14.72° (±1°), 15.36° (±1°), 15.90° (±1°), 16.48° (±1°), 17.42° (±1°), 17.56° (±1°), 18.58° (±1°), and 22.18° (±1°) in a X-ray diffraction measurement using CuK? line. The disclosure is also related to a method of producing a solid electrolyte.
