Publication number: 20240400015Abstract: Typically, mobile equipment with axles has a mechanically fixed or constant split ratio for the braking torque that is applied to each axle. Disclosed embodiments dynamically adjust the braking torque ratio between axles based on real-time parameter values, such as requested braking power and a real-time brake state parameter (e.g., brake temperatures), to more evenly distribute wear or other health imbalances across the brake systems of mobile equipment. Accordingly, disclosed embodiments may extend the longevity of brake systems, reduce the costs of maintenance of mobile equipment, facilitate a more cost-effective brake system that balances health or durability with performance under different operating scenarios, and/or the like.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2023Publication date: December 5, 2024Applicant: Caterpillar Global Mining Equipment LLCInventors: Karl P SCHNEIDER, Joel SKALET

Publication number: 20240404143Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic content placement based on pixel count confidences in pre-existing content. For example, the system may receive a first media asset. The system may determine a first pixel count requirement for the first media asset, wherein the first pixel count requirement indicates a required number of pixels appearing in objects for incorporating the first media asset. The system may identify a first object in a second media asset. The system may determine, using an artificial intelligence model, a first pixel count confidence that the first object meets the first pixel count requirement. The system may, in response to determining that the first pixel count confidence corresponds to the threshold pixel count confidence, generate for display, in a user interface, the first media asset at the first object while the second media asset is presented.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 2, 2023Publication date: December 5, 2024Applicant: Reinbow LLCInventors: Basem SALLOUM, Michael Joseph KARLIN, Roy FEINSON

Publication number: 20240400100Abstract: Tools can generate simulated driving tests that allow a same driving scenario to be tested at different geographical locations and with different arrangements of simulated road user(s) and/or simulated road objects. Numerous parameters used by these tools for creating the simulated driving tests can impact the usefulness of the simulated driving tests. If the parameters are not set appropriately, the simulated driving tests may not result in critical interactions that would enable accurate assessment of vehicle software. To alleviate some of these concerns, a parameter tuning system can find optimal value ranges of parameters based on criticality scores of generated simulated driving tests, so that better simulated driving tests can be obtained.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2023Publication date: December 5, 2024Applicant: GM Cruise Holdings LLCInventors: Omnaath Guptha Harihara Gupta, Yeshaswi Laxman Menghmalani, Ritchie Lee

Publication number: 20240398669Abstract: Any container, but especially a nursing bottle formed of a container, incorporating a unique nipple, where the flow can be infinitely adjusted by turning the bottle on it's longitudinal axis, and which flows freely, without any negative pressure within the container, at all times, simulating normal physiological feeding pressures, without leaking. The nursing bottle may have a cylindrical shape or other configuration. The nipple uniquely utilizes a venting mechanism that provides a pathway for air entrained from the threads of the bottle to proceed to the interior of the container without liquid leaking from the bottle. No additional parts are needed, and any existing traditional container may be utilized, which reduces cost, cleaning steps, and the time needed to feed and clean up.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 31, 2023Publication date: December 5, 2024Applicant: Truvents, LLCInventor: Craig Brown

Publication number: 20240397864Abstract: Float performance of a header is enhanced by using tilt position and/or lift position changes of the header to automatically adjust ground reaction force when operating conditions require a change in tilt and/or lift position of the header, such as for cutting certain crops, cutting in certain conditions, or to maintain a mechanical advantage. Using an equation to relate the changing down force with the tilt and/or lift positions, the floatation setting of the header is changed to maintain a constant ground reaction force. The adaptive floatation avoids the need for the operator to exit the vehicle to check and, if necessary, adjust the floatation force after each tilt and/or lift adjustment.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 31, 2023Publication date: December 5, 2024Applicant: CNH Industrial America LLCInventors: Glenn Bird, Kevin Hanson, Neseth Kong, Todd Rayburn, Jonathan Eaby, Jeffrey Fay, II
