Abstract: A control device includes a housing having a base portion and an extension portion. The base portion of the housing has an inward facing side and an outward facing side. The control device includes a lever coupled to and pivotable relative to the housing, and a master cylinder portion supported by the housing. The master cylinder portion has a hollow fluid cylinder. The control device also includes a piston assembly supported by the housing. The piston assembly is movable relative to the master cylinder portion. At least part of the piston assembly is disposed within the master cylinder portion. The master cylinder portion is angled relative to the outward facing side of the base portion of the housing, such that the first end of the fluid cylinder is closer to the outward facing side than the second end of the fluid cylinder is relative to the outward facing side.

Abstract: Self-hitching and parking trailers, and systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for controlling a trailer are provided herein. A system for controlling a trailer can comprise one or more sensors configured to detect sensor data associated with a trailer, a tow vehicle, and/or an area surrounding the trailer, and a controlling having one or more processors, and a memory storing software instructions that, when executed by the processor(s), cause the processor(s) to obtain sensor data, obtain an indication of an event based at least in part on the sensor data, and initiate a trailer action.

Abstract: Load balancing systems and methods, and trailers with components for load balancing across the trailers or portions (e.g., axles, springs, frame portions) thereof are provided herein. Some trailers comprise a frame, a suspension system configured to support the frame on a set of axles comprising a first axle, and wherein the first axle is movably coupled to the frame. Some trailers comprise a frame, a piping system coupled to the frame, and a set of tanks coupled to one another via the piping system. The piping system can comprise a set of pumps configured to pump fluid between the tanks for load balancing.

Abstract: A system for controlling a charging of at least one of an electric vehicle and a trailer, comprising: a pass-through charging subsystem coupled to the electric vehicle and the trailer; a user interface configured to receive an input associated with a charging instruction; and a controller, comprising: one or more processors; and a memory storing software instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to: direct electricity from a charger through the pass-through charging system such that the at least one of the electric vehicle and the trailer is charged in accordance with the charging instruction.

Abstract: Estimating absolute geospatial accuracy in input images without the use of surveyed control points is disclosed. For example, the absolute geospatial accuracy of a satellite images may be estimated without the use of control points (GCPs). The absolute geospatial accuracy of the input images may be estimated based on a statistical measure of relative accuracies between pairs of overlapping images. The estimation of the absolute geospatial accuracy may include determining a root mean square error of the relative accuracies between pairs of overlapping images. For example, the absolute geospatial accuracy of the input images may be estimated by determining a root mean square error of the shears of respective pairs of overlapping images. The estimated absolute geospatial accuracy may be used to curate GCPs, evaluate a digital elevation map, generate a heatmap, or determine whether the adjust the images until a target absolute geospatial accuracy is met.

Abstract: A set of input images from satellites (or other remote sensors) can be orthorectified and stitched together to create a mosaic. If the resulting mosaic is not of suitable quality, the input images can be adjusted and the processes of orthorectifying and creating the mosaic can be repeated. However, orthorectifying and creating the mosaic uses a large amount of computational resources and takes a lot of time. Therefore, performing numerous iterations is expensive and sometimes not practical. To overcome these issues, it is proposed to generate an indication of accuracy of the resulting mosaic prior to orthorectifying and creating the mosaic by accessing a set of points in the plurality of input images, projecting the points to a model, determining residuals for the projected points, and generating the indication of accuracy of the orthorectified mosaic based on the determined residuals.

Abstract: Collapsible campers and shells, and adjustable components and accessories for campers and other dwellings are provided herein. A collapsible dwelling can comprise a collapsible shell comprising an inner shell portion, optionally one or more mid-shell portions, and an outer shell portion, wherein the inner shell portion, the one or more mid-shell portion, and the outer shell portion are adjustably coupled to one another such that the collapsible shell is adjustable from a collapsed configuration to an extended configuration. The collapsible dwelling can comprise a lift system coupled to the collapsible shell and configured to adjust the collapsible shell from the collapsed configuration to the extended configuration.

Abstract: A database for creating orthomosaics, where the database is tailored to retrieve the most recent imagery for each pixel, in an efficient manner that partitions the orthomosaic into sufficiently small chunks that can each be quickly processed.

Abstract: Techniques for automatically removing slivers from orthomosaics. First, slivers may be identified, which may be based upon user-configurable characteristics such as width and length. Second, slivers may be replaced with portions of another image, such as an older image. Third, boundary slivers may optionally be removed. Fourth, remaining boundary or interior slivers can be inflated by expanding the sliver until it is no longer a sliver, which may include replacing a portion of an adjacent image portion with older imagery.

Abstract: The present invention is a method and system for developing a dynamic scheme for Gamma Knife radiosurgery based on the concept of “dose-painting” to take advantage of robotic patient positioning systems on the Gamma Knife C and Perfexion units. The spherical high dose volume created by the Gamma Knife unit will be viewed as a 3D spherical “paintbrush”, and treatment planning is reduced to finding the best route of this “paintbrush” to “paint” a 3D tumor volume. Under the dose-painting concept, Gamma Knife radiosurgery becomes dynamic, where the patient is moving continuously under the robotic positioning system.
