  • Patent number: 11175656
    Abstract: Among other things, a command is received expressing an objective for operation of a vehicle within a denominated travel segment of a planned travel route. The objective spans a time series of (for example, is expressed at a higher or more abstract level than) control inputs that are to be delivered to one or more of the brake, accelerator, steering, or other operational actuator of the vehicle. The command is expressed to cause operation of the vehicle along a selected man-made travel structure of the denominated travel segment. A feasible manner of operation of the vehicle is determined to effect the command. A succession of control inputs is generated to one or more of the brake, accelerator, steering or other operational actuator of the vehicle in accordance with the determined feasible manner of operation.

  • Patent number: 11176862
    Abstract: Systems and methods of managing notifications on a curved display surface of a mobile electronic communications device are provided, wherein the curved display surface includes a front screen area and lateral edge screen areas. A notification is obtained and a holding direction of the device is detected. If the holding direction does not allow display of the notification on the lateral edge screen areas, it is displayed on the front screen area. If the holding direction allows display of the notification on the lateral edge screen areas, it is displayed on an uncovered edge screen area facing the user if the user is in a known direction. Otherwise, the notification is displayed on all edge screen areas. If the one or more edge screens are partially covered, the notification is displayed on the edge screen area having the least coverage.

  • Patent number: 11172779
    Abstract: Automatic watering systems for hydrating a cut tree or the like from a reservoir of standing water are described herein. Automatic watering systems may include a water source comprising a tank and a supply-water reservoir within the tank. Water may be automatically delivered from the supply-water reservoir to a tree-receiving reservoir which may be associated with a tree stand. Water in the tree-receiving reservoir may be taken up by the tree to keep the tree branches green and supple. A controller detects water levels in the supply-water reservoir and tree-receiving reservoir to control operation of a pump which pumps water to the tree-receiving reservoir for continuous tree hydration. The tank and other components of the system can be made to have the decorative appearance of a gift package to enhance the appearance of the tree and surrounding decor.

  • Patent number: 11173359
    Abstract: Embodiments of golf club heads and methods to manufacture golf club heads are generally described herein. In one example, a method of manufacturing a golf club head includes forming a body portion with an interior cavity, forming a face portion, attaching the face portion to the body portion to close the interior cavity, injecting a polymer material into the interior cavity from a port on the body portion, and inserting a first mass portion into the port to close the port. The method further includes attaching a second mass portion to the body portion below a horizontal midplane of the body portion. Other examples and embodiments may be described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 11175012
    Abstract: A light fixture for lighting a surface includes a housing, a plurality of light sources, and a reflector for directing light out of a window of the housing. The plurality of light sources are directed away from the window of the housing and are then not directly viewable from the exterior of the housing while providing light reflected against the reflector through the window of the housing. The light sources are connected to a substrate through which power is supplied to the light sources and through which heat energy is removed from the light sources during operation. The substrate may form a portion of the housing of the light fixture.

  • Patent number: 11175160
    Abstract: A magnetic field sensor includes an analog front end having first and second magnetic field sensing elements arranged at approximately 90-degrees with respect to each other, a pre-processor and an arctangent processor. The first and second magnetic field sensing elements are arranged in a sideshaft orientation with respect to a rotating object and offset with respect to an axis of rotation of the rotating object, the rotating object having a radial axis and a tangential axis. The pre-processor is configured to receive the first and second magnetic field signals from the analog front end and to apply a correction factor to one or both of the first and second magnetic field signals to produce first and second scaled magnetic field signals. The arctangent processor is configured to calculate an arctangent value of the first and second scaled magnetic field signals.

  • Patent number: 11176129
    Abstract: Methods for automatic selection of degrees of parallelism for efficient execution of queries in a database system are performed by systems and devices. An incoming query associated with a query system is received and features of the incoming query are determined. A system state of the query system and a set of executing queries are also determined, along with a query state of each executing query in the set. At runtime of the incoming query, allocation of a degree of parallelism for executing the query is determined by calculating different possible execution times for the incoming query at least partially concurrently with the set of executing queries. Execution times are calculated for different parallel thread options and based on query features, system state, or query states of executing queries. The execution of the incoming query is initialized with the parallel thread option corresponding to a specific execution completion time.

  • Patent number: 11178415
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide methods and apparatuses for video encoding/decoding. In some examples, an apparatus for video decoding includes processing circuitry that decodes prediction information for a current block in a current coded picture that is part of a coded video sequence. The prediction information indicates a fractional motion vector for the current block. The processing circuitry determines whether one of a block width and a block height of the current block is below a first threshold. The processing circuitry selects one of an integer motion vector, a first interpolation filter, and a second interpolation filter for the current block when the one of the block width and the block height of the current block is determined to be below the first threshold. The processing circuitry reconstructs the current block based on the selected one of the integer motion vector, the first interpolation filter, and the second interpolation filter.
