Patent number: 11958512Abstract: A vehicle monitoring device includes a camera or other optical sensor configured to be disposed at a trailing end of a first vehicle system. The camera or other optical sensor is configured to output one or more images or video of a field of view behind the first vehicle system. The monitoring device also includes a controller configured to receive output from one or more sensors and to activate the camera or other optical sensor to output the one or more images or video based on the output from the one or more sensors. The output from the one or more sensors indicates one or more of a change in movement of the first vehicle system, a temperature, an acoustic sound, or movement of a second vehicle system.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: WESTINGHOUSE AIR BRAKE TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATIONInventors: Carl L. Haas, Padam D. Swar, Danial Rice, Christopher Claussen, Joseph W. Gorman, James A. Oswald, Ann K. Grimm, Kevin Angel, James Trainor, Phillip A. Burgart, Kendrick W. Gawne, Robert Hoffman, Tim Gibson, Brian Kurz

Publication number: 20240048939Abstract: Methods, computer-readable media, systems, and/or apparatuses for evaluating movement data to identify a user as a driver or non-driver passenger are provided. In some examples, movement data may be received from a mobile device of a user. The movement data may include sensor data including location data, such as global positioning system (GPS) data, accelerometer and/or gyroscope data, and the like. Additional data may be retrieved from one or more other sources. For instance, additional data such as usage of applications on the mobile device, public transportation schedules and routes, image data, vehicle operation data, and the like, may be received and analyzed with the movement data to determine whether the user of the mobile device was a driver or non-driver passenger of the vehicle. Based on the determination, the data may be deleted in some examples or may be further processed to generate one or more outputs.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2023Publication date: February 8, 2024Inventors: Surender Kumar, Sunil Chintakindi, Howard Hayes, Tim Gibson, Soton Ayodele Rosanwo

Publication number: 20230325933Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to computing platforms that utilize third party data for customized output generation. A computing platform may receive encrypted data corresponding to a travel history. The computing platform may decrypt a portion of the encrypted data, resulting in first decrypted travel history data. The computing platform may direct a user device to display the first decrypted travel history data, along with a first option to continue decrypting a subsequent portion of the encrypted data and a second option to delete the first decrypted travel history data. After receiving a selection of the first option, the computing platform may decrypt the subsequent portion of the encrypted data. After determining that the encrypted data is fully decrypted, the computing platform may process the decrypted data to generate a customized product output, and may direct the user device to display the customized product output.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 11, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Inventors: Howard Hayes, Sunil Chintakindi, Surender Kumar, Tim Gibson
