  • Patent number: 12344291
    Abstract: A system and method for monitoring failure of a train within a tunnel is disclosed. The method comprises receiving, by the central server, an estimated crossing time for the train to cross the tunnel and the latest location of the train from a telemetry system onboard the train. The telemetry system comprises a Head-of-Train device communicatively coupled to an End-of-Train device. The method further comprises detecting a failure event associated with the train, by the central server, if an attempt to establish communication with the telemetry system is unsuccessful after the estimated crossing time. The method further comprises broadcasting, by the central server, an emergency alert message indicating the failure event to one or more receiving devices based on the latest location of the train. The receiving device is associated with at least one of an operator control station and an adjacent train.

  • Patent number: 12299148
    Abstract: A mobile device can receive input to execute a target application in a private session. The target application is a native application for a mobile platform of the mobile device. The private session is a native function of the mobile device configured to isolate data of the target application. In response to the input, the mobile device can configure a local resource of the mobile device to support the target application in the private session, instantiate a procedure that utilizes the local resource to isolate the data of the target application while in the private session, and execute the target application in the private session on the mobile device. The operation of the private session is transparent and undetectable to the target application.

  • Patent number: 12293872
    Abstract: An electronic device and a protective cover having a magnetic structure with multiple opposing poles on a surface for use with magnetically sensitive components is provided. The magnetic structure is configured for aligning the electronic device and the protective cover, and creating a separable magnetic attachment between the electronic device and the protective cover. The magnetic structure includes more than three magnetic sections arranged in a linear configuration, with each of the magnetic sections magnetized in a direction perpendicular to first and second surfaces of the magnetic structure. The magnetic structure generates flux densities having similar magnitudes relative to the first and second surfaces as a function of distance from each surface, respectively, along a perpendicular axis. Adjacent magnetic sections are magnetized in opposing directions such that the magnetic structure does not impair normal operation of a camera, a compass, and an inductive charger in the electronic device.
