Abstract: In one example, an accessory for a drug injection device has a proximal end, a distal end, a receptacle, and a base. The receptacle defines a cavity that extends into the proximal end towards the distal end and terminates at an inner surface. The cavity receives an injection end of the drug injection device therein so as to position a needle of the drug injection device for delivery of a medication. The receptacle defines an opening that extends into the distal end and through the inner surface. The opening receives the needle of the drug injection device therethrough and has a cross-sectional dimension that is smaller than a cross-sectional dimension of the cavity. The base is disposed at the distal end of the injection device and has a skin-contacting surface with a cross-sectional dimension that is greater than the cross-sectional dimension of the cavity.

Abstract: Example embodiments relate to methods and systems for using interference to detect sensor impairment. Radar or another type of sensor on a vehicle may receive radio-frequency (RF) signals propagating in the environment. These RF signals may originate from an external source and a computing device can be used to determine a distance and an angle to the source in order to identify a power level threshold that represents an expected power associated with the RF signals. The computing device may then perform a comparison between a power level of the RF signals and a power level threshold. Based on the comparison, the computing device may decrease a confidence assigned to the radar coupled to the vehicle and control the vehicle based on the decreased confidence assigned to the radar.
