Patent number: 12125477Abstract: The presentation of an automated assistant response may be selectively pre-empted in response to a hot-word free utterance that is received during the presentation and that is determined to be likely directed to the automated assistant. The determination that the utterance is likely directed to the automated assistant may be performed, for example, using an utterance classification operation that is performed on audio data received during presentation of the response, and based upon such a determination, the response may be pre-empted with another response associated with the later-received utterance. In addition, the duration that is used to determine when a session should be terminated at the conclusion of a conversation between a user and an automated assistant may be dynamically controlled based upon when the presentation of a response has completed.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2023Date of Patent: October 22, 2024Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Pu-sen Chao, Alex Fandrianto

Patent number: 12122451Abstract: A driver assistance system aids a driver in charging one or more trailer-mounted batteries in a trailer being towed by an electrified passenger vehicle. Many existing charging facilities for electric vehicles have charging stalls with a layout configured to accommodate single vehicles. Charging facilities having drive-through or elongated charging stalls able to accommodate larger vehicles which are towing an electrified trailer are much scarcer. When attempting to charge a trailer-mounted battery in a charging stall meant for a single vehicle, it may be necessary to unhitch (i.e., decouple) the trailer while in the charging stall so that the passenger vehicle does not block the aisles of a charging station. Sensors in the vehicle perform a sensor sweep of a selected charging stall, and after unhitching, the trailer uses an independent drive system to park itself in the selected charging stall using driving commands which are calculated from the sensor sweep.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2021Date of Patent: October 22, 2024Assignee: FORD GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Stuart C. Salter, Ryan O'Gorman, Lorne M. Forsythe, Darrel A. Recker, Peter Phung, John R. Van Wiemeersch

Patent number: 12126487Abstract: A network disruption detection engine gathers and stores network routing path update messages that routinely modify routing tables used by internet routers for transporting message traffic between a source and a destination. Routing path messages continually maintain a network transport infrastructure both for intranets used for particular entities such as corporations, and internet traffic between arbitrary source and destination nodes. Major disruptions or outages typically result in an increase in routing path messages, typically focused on a particular set, region or network entity where the disruption occurred, as other routing entities seek to avoid the troubled region. Analysis of this sudden activity of routing messages and extracting message content about the network region they seek to avoid allows identification and queries of a widespread network outage.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2023Date of Patent: October 22, 2024Assignee: Two Six Labs, LLCInventors: Chae A. Clark, Robert P. Gove, Jr., Violet Lingenfelter, Anthony Wong

Patent number: 12123616Abstract: A dehumidification system includes a compressor, a primary evaporator, a primary condenser, a secondary evaporator, a secondary condenser, a modulating valve, and a liquid-cooled alternate condenser. The secondary evaporator receives an inlet airflow and outputs a first airflow to the primary evaporator. The primary evaporator receives the first airflow and outputs a second airflow to the secondary condenser. The secondary condenser receives the second airflow and outputs a third airflow to the primary condenser. The primary condenser receives the third airflow and outputs a dehumidified airflow. The compressor receives a flow of refrigerant from the primary evaporator and provides the flow of refrigerant to the modulating valve. The modulating valve directs the flow of refrigerant to the primary condenser and to the alternate condenser. The alternate condenser receives a portion of the flow of refrigerant and transfers heat from the refrigerant to a flow of fluid.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2023Date of Patent: October 22, 2024Assignee: THERMA-STOR LLCInventors: Weizhong Yu, Steven S.

Patent number: 12124701Abstract: Components of a distributed data object are synchronized using streamlined tracking metadata. A target component of the distributed data object is detected as it becomes available and stale. A source component that is up-to-date and that mirrors the address space of the detected target component is identified. A set of mapped address ranges and a set of unmapped address ranges of the identified source component are obtained. A mapped address range of the target component that corresponds with an unmapped address range of the source component is identified. The identified mapped address range of the target component is then synchronized with the corresponding unmapped address range of the source component. Thus, unmapped address ranges are synchronized without using tracking metadata of the source component.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2023Date of Patent: October 22, 2024Assignee: VMware LLCInventors: Wenguang Wang, Eric Knauft, Sudheer Thokala
