Abstract: The disclosure generally pertains to systems and methods to minimize false alerts in a geofence system. In an example embodiment, a controller may receive location information of a vehicle traveling on a road that is substantially aligned with a segment of a geofence. The controller may identify a margin of error present in the location information and redefine the segment of the geofence based on the margin of error. The controller may then detect geofence violations with respect to the redefined segment of the geofence. In another example embodiment, a controller may receive location information of a vehicle. The controller may evaluate the location information and determine that the vehicle is crisscrossing a segment of a geofence while traveling on a road. The controller minimizes nuisance geofence exit alerts by redefining the geofence so as to include a geofence buffer zone that encompasses the crisscrossing travel path of the vehicle.

Abstract: A device operative to transfer power wirelessly includes a drive-sense circuit (DSC), memory that stores operational instructions, and processing module(s). The DSC generates a drive signal based on a reference signal and provides the drive signal to a first coil via a single line and via a resonating capacitor, and simultaneously senses the drive signal via the single line, to facilitate electromagnetic coupling to a second coil to transfer power wirelessly to another device. The DSC also detects electrical characteristic(s) of the drive signal. The processing module(s) generates the reference signal and processes the digital signal to determine the electrical characteristic(s) of the drive signal. In some examples, the processing module(s) adapts the reference signal based on detection of the other device (e.g., based on interpreting the electrical characteristic(s) of the drive signal).

Abstract: An electrical distribution line cover includes a sleeve defining an elongate cavity extending along the length of the sleeve that is sized to receive an electrical distribution line when the sleeve is installed on the electrical distribution line. The sleeve defines an elongate passage extending along the length of the sleeve and configured to permit passage of the electrical distribution line into the elongate cavity. A resilient clip extends around an exterior surface of the sleeve and biases the passage of the sleeve toward a closed position for inhibiting the passage of the distribution line out of the cavity of the sleeve after the sleeve is installed on the distribution line.

Abstract: A liquid bottle or container, such as for liquid detergent, and corresponding cap and cup is disclosed for operation in a horizontal position with the cap and cup side wall substantially parallel to the ground, the cap and cup shape providing a built-in drip collector cavity positioned around a portion of the circumference or perimeter of the cap and cup rim on the open end of the cap. The cap and cup may be used to cover a nozzle or other valve dispenser during storage. The drip collector cavity has a volume sufficient to collect liquid residue remaining after normal use of the cap as a measuring and dispensing cup, and any post-use drops from the dispenser nozzle. Thus, the cap and cup of the present disclosure is dripless or nearly drip less.

Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to speech recognition techniques for handling variations in speech among users (e.g. due to different accents) and processing features of user context in order to expand a number of speech recognition hypotheses when interpreting a spoken utterance from a user. In order to adapt to an accent of the user, terms common to multiple speech recognition hypotheses can be filtered out in order to identify inconsistent terms apparent in a group of hypotheses. Mappings between inconsistent terms can be stored for subsequent users as term correspondence data. In this way, supplemental speech recognition hypotheses can be generated and subject to probability-based scoring for identifying a speech recognition hypothesis that most correlates to a spoken utterance provided by a user. In some implementations, prior to scoring, hypotheses can be supplemented based on contextual data, such as on-screen content and/or application capabilities.
