Abstract: A portable, convertible, and modular lap desk for use with various types of electronic devices. In some cases, the lap desk may be configured with extendible legs to provide a plurality of adjustable height positions. For instance, the legs may include a closed position, a partially extended position, and a fully extended position for use in different situations. The lap desk may also include on board power supplies, various compartments for storing the electronic devices and on boarding cabling and cable routing to more efficiently organize and couple multiple devices.

Abstract: A food processing system includes a base and an actuator that is releasably mounted to the base. The actuator may have an unactuated position and an actuated position. Numerous accessories each may be individually and interchangeably mountable to and releasable from at least one of the base and the actuator. Each attachment may perform a food processing function when the actuator is moved from the unactuated position to the actuated position.

Abstract: Techniques for updating data operations in a perception system are discussed herein. A vehicle may use a perception system to capture data about an environment proximate to the vehicle. The perception system may receive image data, lidar data, and/or radar data to determine information about an object in the environment. As different sensors may be associated with different time periods for capturing and/or processing operations, the techniques include updating object data with data from sensors associated with a shorter time period to generate intermediate object data. Such intermediate object data may reduce a delay in updating a position of an object in an environment, which may improve reaction time(s) and/or safety outcomes in systems implementing such perception systems, such as an autonomous vehicle.

Abstract: A portable and disposable litter box includes a bottom tray, a top tray, and an insert. The insert includes insert sidewalls that are attached to the bottom tray. The litter box is configurable in open and closed states. In the closed state, the top tray is disposed on the bottom tray and a litter box cavity is defined between the bottom and top trays, and the insert sidewalls are pivoted inwardly such that the insert sidewalls are disposed in the litter box cavity. In the opened state, the top tray is pivoted away from the bottom tray, and the insert sidewalls are pivoted outwardly such that the insert sidewalls extend from the bottom tray to the top tray.

Abstract: A beverage container holder has a frame with a ring having an aperture for supporting and retaining a beverage container. The aperture can adapt to different sizes of beverage containers. The frame also has appendages extending therefrom. Some of the appendages are handles and some of the appendages are support stabilizers. The beverage container holder resembles an animal, and the appendages resemble ears and legs of the animal.

Abstract: This disclosure includes techniques, apparatuses, and implementations for providing a beverage additive and mixing device compatible with standard pre-packaged beverage containers, such as cans, plastic bottles, or glass bottles. For example, in one implementation, the beverage additive and mixing device may be configured to releasably couple with an open beverage container. Once coupled the beverage additive and mixing device may be used to dispense pre-configured amounts of additives, such as a flavor, national supplements, or sweeteners, into the open beverage container.

Abstract: An underwater fishing camera includes a housing having a first proximal end and a second distal end. A nose cap is fastened to the first proximal end of the housing where the nose cap and the housing form a water tight connection. A camera cap is fastened to the rear distal end of the housing where the camera cap and the housing form a water tight connection. An image and video recording device is disposed within the housing towards the second distal end. A leader line connection is connected to the housing. The leader line connection has a first connection point to connect to fishing line extending to a fishing rod and a second connection point to connect to leader line extending towards a lure or fish attractant.

Abstract: A housing for covering equipment located underground may include a body having a top, a bottom and a pipe aperture. The body may include at least two knockouts formed in the pipe aperture. The knockouts may be configured to be individually and selectively removed from the pipe aperture to adjust a height of the pipe aperture relative to the bottom of the body. In addition, a lid may be configured to be mounted to the body, and the lid is movable between an unlocked position and a locked position.
