  • Publication number: 20240194058
    Abstract: A system can perform a method that includes receiving sensor data from a subset of human-driven vehicles that have moved through an intersection in a region, where the sensor data indicates a respective set of trajectories of respective human-driven vehicles of the subset through the intersection. The method can further include processing the sensor data to classify driving behavior of each human-driven vehicle of the subset of human-driven vehicles through the intersection. The method can further include classifying the intersection to label an autonomy map to include pass-through information for at least one of autonomous vehicles or semi-autonomous vehicles driving through the intersection.

  • Publication number: 20240182064
    Abstract: A computing system can receive sensor data from a set of human-driven vehicles operating through a road segment. The system can process the sensor data to determine a set of right-of-way rules for autonomous vehicle driving through the road segment. In certain examples, the system can obtain an autonomous driving map utilized by autonomous vehicles for operating through the road segment, and modify the autonomous driving map to include the set of right-of-way rules for the road segment.

  • Publication number: 20240143136
    Abstract: Disclosed is a multimedia system for meditation practice comprising a graphical user interface (GUI), a multichannel audio output device and computer-executable instructions to receive from a user an activation target, to determine mandala graphics and binaural beat audio works associated with the target, prompt and receive from the user a selected mandala graphic and audio work, and present to the user a meditation program featuring the audio work and the mandala having a spin rate coordinated with the audio work. Also disclosed is a method of meditation practice comprising use of a software application to select an activation target, an associated mandala, and an associated binaural beat audio work. Where the software application generates and presents a meditation program to affect the activation target by playing the selected audio work and displaying the selected mandala rotating at a rate coordinated with the audio work.
