Publication number: 20240153011Abstract: Methods, computer-readable media, systems and apparatuses for determining and implementing risk unit usage-based insurance policies. In some arrangements, sensor data associated with vehicle operation data, driving data, and the like, may be received and analyzed to determine a consumption rate of risk units in the risk unit usage-based insurance policy. In some examples, one or more driving behaviors may also be identified (e.g., from the sensor data, historical data, and the like). In some examples, one or more user interfaces may be generated displaying the determined consumption rate and/or driving behaviors. In some arrangements, additional information, such as one or more recommendations for improving (e.g., reducing) consumption rate may be generated and provided via the generated user interface.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2023Publication date: May 9, 2024Inventors: Regina Madigan, Dana Ferguson, Mark V.

Patent number: 11970996Abstract: Devices and methods of rocket propulsion are disclosed. In one aspect, a staged combustion liquid rocket engine with preburner and turbopump unit (TPU) integrated into the structure of the combustion chamber is described. An initial propellant mixture is combusted in a preburner combustion chamber formed as an annulus around a main combustion chamber, the combustion products from the preburner driving the turbine of the TPU and subsequently injected into the main combustion chamber for secondary combustion along with additional propellants, generating thrust through a supersonic nozzle. The preburner inner cylindrical wall is shared with the outer cylindrical wall of the engine's main combustion chamber and the turbine is axially aligned with the main combustion chamber.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2023Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: Special Aerospace Services, LLCInventors: Timothy Bulk, Christopher Hayes

Patent number: 11966724Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for automatically building automations from desktop recordings using program synthesis. The problem of building automations for desktop applications can be lifted to a generalized concept of automations that operate on worlds whose “world state” can change asynchronously to the actions of the automation. Advantageously, in contrast with synthesis systems that take input-output demonstrations to synthesize a function that maps between them, the method presented here can synthesize from time-series traces of actions to automations that generalizes each step.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2022Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: XXV Inc.Inventors: Saurabh Srivastava, Helgi K.

Patent number: 11320294Abstract: A fluid dispenser for measuring and dispensing fluid from a container includes a housing having a measurement chamber that defines a volume for receiving a predefined quantity of the fluid, a fluid flow passage having an inlet configured to be in fluid communication with the fluid in the container, and an outlet in fluid communication with the measurement chamber, such that the fluid flow passage permits fluid flow between the container and the measurement chamber. A valve member is provided that is movable in the flow passage to open the flow passage to permit fluid flow from the container to the measurement chamber to thereby allow the volume of the measurement chamber to fill with the predefined quantity of fluid; and to close the flow passage to restrict fluid flow from the container to the measurement chamber, and to isolate the predefined quantity of fluid to the measurement chamber.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2019Date of Patent: May 3, 2022Assignee: AMS LLCInventors: Matthew Battle, Timothy Hayes, Sean Barry, Adrian Bischoff
