  • Publication number: 20230382427
    Abstract: Provided are methods for motion prediction in an autonomous vehicle using fused synthetic and camera images. The method can include obtaining data pairs, each of which reflects data corresponding to a synthetic image representing a birds-eye-view of an area around a vehicle and identifying an object, and data corresponding to a camera image depicting the object. A machine learning model can be trained based on the data pairs to result in a trained model that predicts motion of the object within the data pair based on the synthetic image and camera image in the data pair. Systems and computer program products are also provided.

  • Patent number: 7373656
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a portable device configured to interact with any number of host computing devices. In operation, the portable device will initially appear to a host computing device as a known device type. The host computing device will be configured to interact with the portable device as the known device type. Upon such interaction, the host computing device will access indicia sufficient to identify the portable device as a second device type and instruct the host computing device to configure itself to interact with the portable device as the second device type.

  • Patent number: 6986030
    Abstract: The present invention uses a portable memory device to directly or wirelessly interact with one or more host computing devices to provide a customized configuration for one or more aspects associated with a computing session. In particular, software on the portable device will automatically execute on the host computing device after the host computing device recognizes the presence of the portable device. The software provides instructions for the host computing device to launch a select program on the host computing device and provide a customized configuration for the program. The customized configuration is based on information stored on the portable device. As such, the portable device may automatically set preferred interface or program configurations personalized to the user. For example, the interface settings for a desktop, productivity, or browser application may be tailored as defined by information stored on the portable device.

  • Publication number: 20020162009
    Abstract: The present invention relates to using a portable device in association with a computing session on a host computing device. The portable device preferably includes software capable of executing on the host computing device to remove records pertaining to the computing session from the host computing device to enhance privacy associated with the computing session. Preferably, the host computing device will execute the software to delete cookies, browsing histories, preferences, favorites, and bookmarks from the host computing device's system memory, cache, and available disk drives to minimize the amount of information about the computing session left on the host computing device.

  • Publication number: 20020145632
    Abstract: The present invention relates to using a portable device containing software capable of automatically executing on the host computing device in association with a computing session and provide an interface frame for display on the host computing device. The interface frame providing viewable content, links to one or more web sites, links to software functions stored on the portable device for executing on the host computing device, or a combination thereof. The content information may be various logos, banners, or other web content. The web content may be mark-up language content stored on the portable device or provided by a web site identified by information stored on the portable device. Preferably, certain content and links to web sites are affiliated with the provider of the portable device to provide a marketing tool. Further, the content is preferably substantially fixed or controlled to an extent where the content remains viewable to the user regardless of actions taken during the computing session.
