  • Patent number: 12293338
    Abstract: Described herein are methods and systems for generating and applying vehicle maintenance models to vehicle telematics data. A vehicle telematics analytics (VTA) computing device is configured to receive vehicle telematics data associated with operation of a subject vehicle, and apply the received vehicle telematics data to a vehicle maintenance model to determine whether the operation of the subject vehicle is better or worse than standard operation of like vehicles. The VTA computing device may adjust a maintenance cost and/or determine if a user of the vehicle is eligible for a reward based upon this determination. The VTA computing device is configured to transmit an itemized report to the user including the adjusted maintenance cost and/or the reward as well as one or more other vehicle costs.

  • Publication number: 20250081953
    Abstract: A visible fish strike indicator may include a buoyant main housing with a horizontal center axis and center of gravity beneath the horizontal center axis allowing the indicator to float upright on water. A light-transmissible housing can be detachably supported by the main housing, with an indicator illumination assembly that includes an accelerometer. The accelerometer senses the indicator's position and accelerative forces. A microprocessor interfaces with the accelerometer to analyze position data and generate command signals. These signals control a current-limiting resistor system, which regulates electrical currents to an RGB LED system. This light-transmissible housing emits different colors to signal indicator operation or a fish strike.

  • Patent number: 12185709
    Abstract: Visible fish strike indicators may include a buoyant main housing having a horizontal center axis and a center of gravity beneath the horizontal center axis, whereby the main housing is configured to normally float in an upright horizontal position on a water body. A light-transmissible light housing having a light housing interior may be detachably supported by the main housing. An indicator illumination assembly may be supported by the main housing. The indicator illumination assembly may include at least one tilt switch configured to sense a vertical positioning event in which the main housing deploys from the upright horizontal position to a vertical position. A power source may interface with the tilt switch. A strike indicator light may interface with the tilt switch and the power source. The strike indicator light may be configured to emit a strike light pattern in the light housing.

  • Patent number: 12187289
    Abstract: A data analytics computing device for generating refined risk models responsive to vehicle-based telematics data is configured to receive geolocation data and telematics data associated with a plurality of vehicles. The geolocation data is captured at a location sensor of a vehicle computing device and representative of a location of the vehicle, and the telematics data is captured at a plurality of sensors of at least one of the vehicle or the vehicle computing device and representative of movement of the vehicle. The plurality of vehicles is associated with a geographic area. The data analytics computing device is also configured to apply machine-learning techniques to the geolocation data and the telematics data to define standard driving behavior within the geographic area, and generate driving behavior risk models for the geographic area based upon the standard driving behavior.

  • Patent number: 11989195
    Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying estimated relevance indicators for result sets of documents and for displaying query visualizations are disclosed. A method includes receiving a search query including a plurality of query terms. The method further includes searching a database using the search query to identify the result set of documents and calculating an estimated relevance score for the result set of documents. The estimated relevance score is indicative of a degree to which the result set of documents are relevant to the search query. The method further includes providing for display the estimated relevance indicator based on the estimated relevance score. The estimated relevance indicator provides a visual indication of the degree to which the result set of documents are relevant to the search query. Query visualizations including a plurality of nodes and a plurality of connectors are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11352828
    Abstract: A system for controlling one or more motorized windows. The motorized windows each have a processor, a network device and wireless transmitters enabling connection via a network. The network is controlled by one or more mobile devices which receive user input. The mobile devices wirelessly connect to a local area network (LAN) via a hub. One or more hubs are connected via the LAN. The motorized windows are networked via a personal area network (PAN). The hubs convert the LAN protocol to the PAN protocol. Sensors send sensor data along with real time weather data to the processor. The processor uses this sensor data to update charts and schedules in memory, then sends commands to the controller based on these updated charts and schedules according to user defined and factory set parameters. The system includes both local and cloud-based control.
