Abstract: A method for authenticating at least one diagnostic trouble code (DTC) generated by a motor vehicle system of a vehicle. The method generates a DTC by a fault detection algorithm, stores the DTC in a volatile fault memory, generates an identity marker denoting the fault detection algorithm at the time of generation of the DTC, stores the identity marker in NVM, stores the DTC in the NVM when an ignition-off request signal is present, loads the DTC from the NVM into the volatile memory when an ignition-on request signal is present, and authenticates the DTC by the authentication data record by, initially by determining the fault detection algorithm by which the fault event was detected, subsequently this fault detection algorithm being compared with the fault detection algorithm indicated by the identity marker, and an absence of concordance resulting in a manipulation of the DTC being indicated.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed for flight control prioritization. An example apparatus includes a thrust state determiner to determine a first thrust margin between a first limit of first available power for first rotors of a rotorcraft and a first thrust state associated with the first rotors, determine a second thrust margin between a second limit of second available power for second rotors of the rotorcraft and a second thrust state associated with the second rotors, and identify the first thrust margin or the second thrust margin as a selected thrust margin based on a vertical control profile of the rotorcraft, and a command generator to determine a first vertical control command based on the selected thrust margin and a second vertical control command, the second vertical control command being executed by the rotorcraft, and control the rotorcraft based on the first vertical control command.

Abstract: A vehicle control device is provided in a vehicle and includes a microphone, a first voice recognition engine, a second voice recognition engine different from the first voice recognition engine, and a processor for executing the first voice recognition engine or the second voice recognition engine on the basis of the vehicle traveling mode when a command is received through the microphone.

Abstract: Systems and methods for calibrating a machine for operating with an implement that is selectively coupleable to the machine. Both the implement and the machine have memories storing calibration data for machine-implement combinations. The machine and the implement are operated based on a calibration value stored to the machine memory corresponding to an identification of the specific implement that is coupled to the machine. If a calibration value for the specific implement is not already in the machine memory, the machine determines a calibration value for the implement based on other calibration data stored by the machine memory and/or the implement memory. In some embodiments, the calibration data stored by the machine and by the implement is synchronized when the implement is selectively coupled to the machine.
