  • Patent number: 12268979
    Abstract: A variable configuration modular fluid filter assembly includes one or more discrete filter housing assemblies that each include a mount body constructed to support a cap and a filter sleeve. A plurality of bosses are formed on radially outward facing sides of the mount body and are each discretely selectable to fluidly connect the discrete mount body to one another to provide a desired flow characteristic of the discrete filter assembly arrangement. Preferably, each discrete filter assembly includes a seal arrangement disposed between the cap and the mount body and which orients the sealing interface therebetween at an acute angle relative to an axis of rotation of the cap relative to the mount body when the cap and mount body are engaged with one another.

  • Patent number: 12271332
    Abstract: A 3D stacked device includes a plurality of semiconductor chips stacked in a vertical direction. The semiconductor chips each include a plurality of portions grouped into slivers according to the column they lie in. Each of the portions further includes a plurality of blocks grouped into sub-slivers and interconnected by inter-block bridges. A block that must be functional on the bottommost chip of the 3D stacked device is configured to bypass a neighboring nonfunctional block on the same chip by using a communication path of an inter-block bridge to a neighboring functional block that is in the same sub-sliver as the nonfunctional block but in a different chip. So long as only one of the blocks in a sub-sliver is nonfunctional, the inter-block bridges permit the other blocks in the sub-sliver to receive and route data.

  • Patent number: 12272138
    Abstract: Techniques are presented for the detection and management of collision warning (CW) events. A training dataset comprising videos of vehicle collisions and non-collisions, sensor readings, environmental conditions, and more is utilized to train a CW classification model for detecting potential collision events in vehicles. A backend CW classification model, with greater computational resources, employs a more complex neural network to review CW events received by the Behavioral Monitoring System (BMS) based on video data, achieving higher precision and reducing false positives. The CW model is installed in vehicles for real-time detection, while the backend model is deployed at the BMS. The BMS validates detected CW events, filters out false positives, and streamlines the review process for fleet administrators and customers. Additional BMS filtering operations include assessing non-proximity-related CW events and camera impairments, with the filtered CW events presented for review in the safety inbox.

  • Patent number: 12270999
    Abstract: A method and system for increasing dynamic digitized wavefront resolution, i.e., the density of output beamlets, can include receiving a single collimated source light beam and producing multiple output beamlets spatially offset when out-coupled from a waveguide. The multiple output beamlets can be obtained by offsetting and replicating a collimated source light beam. Alternatively, the multiple output beamlets can be obtained by using a collimated incoming source light beam having multiple input beams with different wavelengths in the vicinity of the nominal wavelength of a particular color. The collimated incoming source light beam can be in-coupled into the eyepiece designed for the nominal wavelength. The input beams with multiple wavelengths take different paths when they undergo total internal reflection in the waveguide, which produces multiple output beamlets.

  • Patent number: 12271502
    Abstract: A centralized document system generates a document package in response to a request by an originating entity. The document package includes at least one document for execution by a first receiving entity. The first receiving entity can specify a set of permissions for a second receiving entity to perform actions to documents within the package on behalf of the first receiving entity. Accordingly, the system may provide the document package to both the first and second receiving entities for the first receiving entity to execute the at least one document. Before providing the document to the second receiving entity, system may determine whether there is a sensitive document in the package and whether to delegate the document to the second entity. Accordingly, the system may prevent a sensitive document package from being provided to the second receiving entity for execution.
