Abstract: Method of manufacturing a colored product, which includes obtaining a first colored covering material, where the first colored covering material is a first covering material coated with a first coating, where the first coating has a first color, where the first color has a first wavelength, where the first wavelength is 400 nm to 620 nm; measuring the first wavelength of the first color; determining a second wavelength of a second color, where the determining includes calculating the second wavelength by multiplying the first wavelength by a first phi factor, where the first phi factor is a product of n times ?, where n is 0.1 to 100, where ? is 1.
Abstract: A method of assembling a portal gear box assembly and/or a braking system is disclosed. The method includes installing a clutch pack through an opening in a portal box over an output shaft, installing a face plate that covers the opening and installing a wheel hub onto the output shaft. The portal gear box includes a clutch pack including a first and second set of clutch plates interspersed between each other. The first set of clutch plates configured to rotate with rotation of the output shaft and the second set configured to not rotate. The clutch pack is compressible by a hydraulic piston and pressure plate, compressing the sets of the clutch plates reducing the rotation of the output shaft.

Abstract: A method includes capturing, by a sensor on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), an image of a delivery location. The method also includes determining, based on the image of the delivery location, a segmentation image. The segmentation image segments the delivery location into a plurality of pixel areas with corresponding semantic classifications. The method additionally includes determining, based on the segmentation image, a percentage of obstacle pixels within a surrounding area of a delivery point at the delivery location, wherein each obstacle pixel has a semantic classification indicative of an obstacle in the delivery location. The method further includes based on the percentage of obstacle pixels being above a threshold percentage, aborting a delivery process of the UAV.
