Abstract: A method and system for identifying recurrent stops of a vehicle fleet having a plurality of vehicles. The method comprises retrieving historical GPS tracks of the vehicle fleet over a period of time; detecting stops made by the vehicle fleet along travelled routes that are associated with the historical GPS tracks; constructing a coverage area that covers the travelled routes; discretizing the coverage area into a plurality of cells; determining whether a cell is a recurrent stop based on a fleet stay period associated with that cell; and classifying a determined recurrent stop into a plurality of categories.

Abstract: An imaging sensor includes a pixel array containing photodiodes, the photodiodes being isolated from one another by full thickness deep trench isolations. Row control circuitry controls which rows of the pixel array operate in an imaging mode and which rows of the pixel array operate in an energy harvesting mode, on a row by row basis. Switch circuitry selectively connects different groups of photodiodes in rows operating in the energy harvesting mode into forward biased series configurations between a voltage output line and a ground line, or into forward biased parallel configurations between the voltage output line and the ground line.
Abstract: A device may obtain video data associated with a driving event involving a first vehicle. The device may determine a vanishing point associated with the video data and may construct a cone of impact of the first vehicle based on the vanishing point. The device may detect a second vehicle within the cone of impact and may analyze the subset of video frames to determine a distance between the first vehicle and the second vehicle. The device may determine a speed of the first vehicle during a time period associated with a subset of video frames. The device may determine a headway score, representative of a severity associated with the first vehicle being within a proximity threshold of the second vehicle during the time period, based on the distance and the speed. The device may determine an occurrence of a tailgating event based on the headway score.
Abstract: A photonic device includes a PCB having an integrated circuit mounted thereon, with a cap mounted to the PCB and carrying a lens positioned over the integrated circuit. The cap is formed by: an outer wall mounted to the PCB, extending upwardly from the PCB, and surrounding a portion of the integrated circuit; a first retention structure extending inwardly from the outer wall and across the integrated circuit, the first retention structure having a hole defined therein; and a second retention structure having a hole defined therein, the second retention structure being affixed within the first retention structure such that the hole in the second retention structure is axially aligned with the hole in the first retention structure. The lens is mechanically constrained within the cap between the first retention structure and the second retention structure.
Abstract: The invention relates to compounds of Formula (I), salts thereof, combinations, pharmaceutical compositions thereof, as well as therapeutic methods of treatment and prevention.

Abstract: A method for modulating a signal including operating a circuit in a first arrangement during a first operating interval and switching the circuit between the first arrangement and a second arrangement during a first modulation interval to vary a load on the circuit to produce a first amplitude shift keying (ASK) signal. The method further includes detecting a voltage on the circuit crossing a threshold level and operating the circuit in the second arrangement during a second operating interval. The method also includes switching the circuit between the second arrangement and the first arrangement during a second modulation interval to vary the load on the circuit to produce a second ASK signal.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of tracking vessel movement which comprises receiving a first vessel data message comprising a first vessel identifier, the first vessel data message having been transmitted at a first time and being associated with a first position; and receiving a second vessel data message comprising a second vessel identifier, the second vessel data message having been transmitted at a second time and being associated with a second position. The method also comprises determining if the first vessel identifier and the second vessel identifier are related. If the first vessel identifier and the second vessel identifier are related, a speed required for a vessel to have moved from the first position to the second position is determined; which is then determined if the speed is below a speed threshold; and if the speed is below the speed threshold, the first position is associated with the second position.

Abstract: A device may receive, from a first vehicle, video data for video captured of a location associated with an accident for a second vehicle, and may process the video data, with a first model, to generate a sparse point cloud of the location associated with the accident. The device may process the video data, with a second model, to generate depth maps for frames of the video data, and may utilize the depth maps with the sparse point cloud to generate a dense point cloud. The device may process the video data, with a third model, to generate a dense semantic point cloud, and may process the dense semantic point cloud, with a fourth model, to determine a dense semantic overhead view of the location associated with the accident. The device may perform actions based on the dense semantic overhead view.

Abstract: A lens is positioned to be received by a lens holder. The lens includes a first electrical trace and the lens holder includes a second electrical trace. The first and second electrical traces form electrodes of a sense capacitor. A capacitance of the sense capacitor is sensed. From the sensed capacitance, a determination is made as to whether the lens is present and properly positioned in the lens holder.
