Patent number: 11863355Abstract: The present invention relates to differential receivers, and more particularly to a fail-safe circuit for low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) receivers having single differential input disconnect detection with a latchable control signal interrupt capability. In operation, the receiver output is applied to a Vout output as long as the control signal is in a normal operating state, and on the first occurrence of a fault condition trigger is applied to the input of a latch, the latch latches applying a fault state to the control signal which causes the Vout output to follow the control signal blocking the receiver output until the latch is reset after the fault has been corrected.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2023Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Aronix LLCInventors: Arun Narayan Patil, Anand Raghunath Bhave, Varun Kaushik, Harshita Kaushik

Patent number: 11858509Abstract: An operator offset request for automatic lane following system of an automobile vehicle includes an operator offset request defining a lateral offset distance away from a first travel-line of an automobile vehicle in a displacement path moved until a second travel-line of the automobile is achieved. An operator input setting system when actuated generates an initiation signal forwarded to a controller to input the operator offset request. An achievement signal is generated to signify a selected offset position selected by a vehicle operator for the offset distance is achieved. A vehicle return travel path is elected by the vehicle operator to return the automobile vehicle to the first travel-line from the second travel-line by a return displacement path which is opposite to the displacement path.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2020Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: GM GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS LLCInventors: Reza Zarringhalam, Mohammadali Shahriari, Wenhao Wu, Paul A.

Patent number: 11860816Abstract: Data items are archived by separating them into two or more data streams according to common characteristics or categories. Data item properties, including custodian and date properties, are defined for the items in each stream. A record manifest, including metadata corresponding to the data item properties for the stream, is created. The data items and the manifest are stored. The data items are indexed only on demand, and only to the extent necessary to satisfy the demand. When data is restored from archival storage, it is combined with the stub in a manner that treats the stub and stored data as complementary parts, thus preserving any changes to the stub that are not reflected in the archive copy.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2017Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Archive360, LLCInventors: Tiberiu Popp, Nick Czeczulin, Robert Desteno

Patent number: 11860866Abstract: A website is navigated automatically in a sequential manner, for example by performing a series of specific network requests in a specified order, without necessarily using a browser, and without necessarily rendering each web page in the sequence. Interactions with a website are automatically recorded, stored, and analyzed. Requests and responses can be associated with particular input/output operations. Based on the analysis, the system can determine what data is expected by web servers, so that it can effectively simulate browser operations in connection with those web servers, and extract useful information from the data received in response to those operations. Thus, data extraction and/or other operations can be performed more efficiently and more quickly, while reducing the computing resources needed.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2022Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Robert Duke, Ryan Engle, Ryan Peck, Jonathan Coon
