  • Publication number: 20240153320
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a test rover apparatus, a test system and a test method using the test rover apparatus. For example, the test rover apparatus is provided with a chassis that is configured to support an object representing a mobile actor, and a motor that is coupled to at least one wheel. At least one spring is coupled between the at least one wheel and the chassis to: bias the at least one wheel to extend out of the cavity to engage an underlying surface, and compress in response to a load being applied to the top of the chassis thereby retracting the at least one wheel into the cavity. A controller is configured to control the motor to drive the at least one wheel to propel the chassis along a predetermined route that is based on simulation data and corresponds to a maneuver of the mobile actor.

  • Patent number: 8375226
    Abstract: A system and method for providing a firewall system that prevents a computer from being accessed by an unauthorized user via a computer network. The system includes a switch assembly that connects and disconnects the computer from a computer network. The switch assembly is controlled by the types of data transmissions generated by the computer. If the computer generates a data transmission addressed to the computer network, the switch assembly automatically interconnects the computer to the computer network. If the data transmission generated by the computer includes a data request from some point on the computer network, the interconnection with the computer network is held open until the requested data is received. Once the requested data is received, the switch assembly disconnects the computer from the computer network.
