Publication number: 20240127695Abstract: Described herein are various techniques, including a system that uses high-rate acceleration data for computing an accident score indicative of a potential collision and triggering an action in response to determining that the accident score indicates a potential collision. The system is configured to filter out undesired high-rate acceleration trigger events such as noise and harsh braking events prior to determining the accident score. The accident score is based on contexts or scores computed from high-rate acceleration data, speed, and GPS data captured by a telematics monitor deployed in a vehicle.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: Geotab Inc.Inventors: Jack Graham Ellis, Willem Petersen, Sanghamesh Vastrad

Patent number: 11346121Abstract: A member-to-member planar connection bracket that includes multiple repeated fuse element configurations that each provide a pre-determined inelastic load-carrying capacity and a reliable inelastic deformation capacity upon development of one or more inelastic hinge locations within the fuse elements. The fuse configurations are interconnected in series such that the total deformation accommodated between first end of the bracket and second end of the bracket is the sum of deformations accommodated by the individual fuse configurations. Multiple brackets are configured in laminar configurations and interconnected to create a connection assembly that provides increased strength or increased deformation capacity as compared to an individual bracket. The connection assembly is used to connect a first structural member and second structural member.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2018Date of Patent: May 31, 2022Assignee: Simpson Strong-Tie Company Inc.Inventors: Patrick McManus, Jay Puckett, Jack Petersen

Publication number: 20140316871Abstract: In a direct marketing environment, a compensation method for calculating compensation of a distributor entails utilizing multiple compensation systems in serial with each other, such that a first distributor of a direct marketing company may receive compensation under a first compensation system as well as compensation under one or more additional compensation systems, and wherein providing compensation under at least one of the compensation systems occurs without regard to whether compensation was provided under another compensation system.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 18, 2013Publication date: October 23, 2014Inventors: Melyn Campbell, Jack Petersen
