Abstract: A vehicle, suspension system and method of dampening a force on the suspension system is disclosed. The suspension system includes a damper having a first damping element and a second damping element configured to rotate relative to each other in response to a force received at the suspension system. The second damping element induces an eddy current in the first damping element during relative rotation. A feature of one at least one of the first damping element and the second damping element provides a first electrical resistance to the eddy current during relative rotation in a first direction and a second electrical resistance to the eddy current during relative rotation in a second direction. The first electrical resistance generates a first damping force and the second electrical resistance generates a second damping force.

Abstract: In an industrial control system (ICS), latent vectors are generated to represent identity or behaviors of host devices coupled to the ICS. A computing system captures communications transmitted by a host device across a network associated with the ICS. A set of values are extracted from one or more respective fields in the communication, then applied to a trained neural network. Values of a first set of fields are applied at an input layer of the trained neural network, while values of a second set of fields are applied at an output layer of the neural network. Based on the application of the neural network to the values extracted from the communication, the computing system generates a latent vector.

Abstract: A multilevel fire detector system includes a vessel with low-cost thermoelectric sensors such as thermopiles, facing multiple directions, that amplify infrared (IR) wavelengths particular to wildfire. A controller processes and compares IR data patterns in various ways and determines if potential fire risk or heat surges exceeds a threshold, which is a function of on-board and external data, then produces a warning signal transmitted by a communication system. The system may be deployed on its own, or configured with infrastructure, including transmission lines implicated in wildfires.

Abstract: Wearable systems and method for operation thereof incorporating headset and controller localization using headset cameras and controller fiducials are disclosed. A wearable system may include a headset and a controller. The wearable system may alternate between performing headset tracking and performing controller tracking by repeatedly capturing images using a headset camera of the headset during headset tracking frames and controller tracking frames.

The wearable system may determine a fiducial interval during which fiducials of the controller are to flash at a fiducial frequency and a fiducial period. The wearable system may cause the fiducials to flash during the fiducial interval in accordance with the fiducial frequency and the fiducial period.

Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to processing and executing digital asset transfers between two users. An example method includes receiving a data object defining a digital asset transfer, and the data object may be a query from the first user to initiate an outbound transfer to a second user or an approval of a request for digital asset units from the second user.

The method further includes, responsive to determining that the digital asset transfer satisfies one or more transfer conditions, executing the digital asset transfer by executing a closed-loop debit from the first user and executing a closed-loop credit to the second user. The method further includes updating the account balance data object to reflect the resulting balances of each digital asset account.

Abstract: A head mounted display system can process images by assessing relative motion between the head mounted display and one or more features in a user's environment. The assessment of relative motion can include determining whether the head mounted display has moved, is moving and/or is expected to move with respect to one or more features in the environment.
