Abstract: Additive-polymer precursor materials for filaments (e.g., for three-dimensional (3D) printing) are provided, as well as methods of fabricating and using the same. One or more two-dimensional (2D) additive materials (e.g., nano materials, such as nanosheets) can be mixed with a polymer base to give an additive-polymer precursor composite material. The additive material can be dissolved in a first solvent to give an additive solution, and the polymer can be dissolved in a second solvent to give a polymer base. The additive solution can be mixed with the polymer base to give a mixed solution. Solvent casting can then be performed on the mixed solution to evaporate the solvent(s) and give the additive-polymer precursor composite material, which can have a layered structure.

Abstract: An in-vehicle entertainment method includes playing through an in-vehicle audio component a received program content broadcast from a remote location; and receiving, during the playing of the received program content, a user input selecting an identifier. The selected identifier is associated with an electronic device remote from the vehicle. The method further includes transmitting, from the vehicle to the electronic device during the playing of the received program content, an alert identifying the received program content, a channel from which the received program content is playing, or combinations thereof.

Abstract: A method for remotely participating in a listener survey includes receiving survey questions on an infotainment system, where the survey questions are at least partly displayed on a display portion of the infotainment system; transmitting to the survey provider a user input response to at least one of the survey questions; and receiving tabulated survey results of the survey, the results being at least partly displayed on the display portion of the infotainment system. A computer-readable medium storing a computer program and a system including a mechanism for practicing the above method are also disclosed.
