Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a primary power supply (PPS) configured to supply primary power, a PPS sensor configured to measure the power supplied by the PPS and provide a PPS measurement signal indicating an amount of the power supplied by the PPS, a backup power supply (BPS) configured to be provided in an emergency data system and further configured to supply backup power to a modem, and an integrated circuit configured to maintain a clock using the power supplied by the PPS. The integrated circuit is configured to receive the PPS measurement signal from the PPS sensor, determine whether the PPS measurement signal falls below a threshold, and maintain the clock using the power supplied by the BPS in response to a determination that the PPS measurement signal has fallen below the threshold.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for image processing are described. A device may receive a first frame including a candidate object. The device may detect first object recognition information based on the first frame or a portion of the first frame. The first object recognition information may include the candidate object or a first candidate bounding box associated with the candidate object. The device may detect second object recognition information based on the first object recognition information, a second frame, or a portion of the second frame. The second object recognition information may include the candidate object in the second frame, a second candidate bounding box associated with the candidate object, or features of the candidate object. The device may estimate motion information associated with the candidate object in the first frame, and track the candidate object in the second frame based on the motion information.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to testing functionality of the display system. An example method generally includes selecting a first data integrity check value, associated with a region of interest (ROI) of an input frame, among a set of data integrity check values stored on a memory device, the data integrity check values are associated with an animation comprising a plurality of frames, and at least one of the frames of the animation corresponds to the input frame; processing, with a display processor, the input frame; calculating a second data integrity check value on the ROI of the input frame after the display processor processes the input frame; comparing, with a comparator, the data integrity check values; and generating, with the comparator, an interrupt if the comparison indicates that the values do not match.

Abstract: Systems and method for error detection in automobile tell-tales are provided. An initial cyclic redundancy check (CRC) for a tell-tale to be calculated and stored at a primary control system within the vehicle. When a fault or condition is detected which generates the tell-tale, the primary control system passes video information to a display embedded control unit (ECU) along with the initial CRC. A circuit in the display ECU performs its own CRC calculation and compares the initial CRC to the calculated CRC. If there is not a match, then a fault indication may be provided to the primary control system for action by the primary control system. Still further, back up or fail-operational options may be invoked so that the tell-tale is provided to the operator.

Abstract: Alternative display options for vehicle telltales are disclosed. In one aspect, a fault condition in a telltale is detected, and the telltale is presented through a secondary display system in the vehicle, potentially bypassing any local control unit for the secondary display system. For example, a video telltale may be presented on an infotainment display after detection of a fault in the original telltale. By presenting the telltale in an alternate display, the operator remains informed of sensor conditions in the automobile and may take remedial action to fix the fault as well as any conditions which trigger a telltale.

Abstract: Methods and systems to broadcast sensor outputs in an automotive environment allow sensors such as cameras to output relatively unprocessed (raw) data to two or more different processing circuits where the processing circuits are located in separate and distinct embedded control units (ECUs). A first one of the two or more different processing circuits processes the raw data for human consumption. A second one of the two or more different processing circuits processes the raw data for machine utilization such as for autonomous driving functions. Such an arrangement allows for greater flexibility in utilization of the data from the sensors without imposing undue latency in the processing stream and without compromising key performance indices for human use and machine use.

Abstract: An illuminating display apparatus has a flexible sheet formed with two independent recessed areas separated by a wall. The sheet is formed with a raised perimeter surface surrounding the recessed areas. A porous wall separates one of the recessed areas into a first and a second open compartments. A closed container of a frangible material is placed within one of the compartments and the container is filled with a first chemiluminescent fluid. A second rigid sheet has a first surface area portion that is either transparent or translucent; and a second surface area portion that is opaque. The two sheets are bonded together forming closed compartments within one of which the frangible container is held in place. The compartments are filled with a second chemiluminescent fluid.

Abstract: A cost effective circuit improves the cross regulation of multiple outputs converter, especially for that output chokes are coupled and a synchronous rectifier is applied to one of the outputs. A DC/DC converter includes a transformer having a primary winding and two secondary windings. The first secondary winding is coupled to a synchronous rectifier and a first output choke. The second secondary winding is coupled to a diode rectifier and a second output choke. The first output choke and the second output choke are coupled. A low power MOSFET switch is added to the diode rectifier for avoiding the diode rectifier operating in DCM when light loaded.
