Abstract: System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to improving situational awareness of occupants of a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes analyzing, using at least a processor of the vehicle, scan data from a sensor of the vehicle to detect at least one object within the surrounding environment. The method includes converting the scan data into converted data that represents the at least one object with a reduced quantity of data. The method includes rendering, using the converted data, at least one graphic that is a visual representation of the at least one object. The method includes displaying the at least one graphic within a display of the vehicle at a location within the display that represents a location of the at least one object relative to the vehicle in the surrounding environment.

Abstract: A process of producing a zeotype material having a zeolite-type framework. The process includes providing a zeolite having a framework, dealuminating the zeolite to remove aluminum atoms therefrom to produce a dealuminated framework comprising a plurality of vacancy sites, contacting the dealuminated framework with dichloromethane and a precursor comprising heteroatoms, and then heating the dealuminated framework, the dichloromethane, and the precursor under reflux conditions to incorporate the heteroatoms into at least some of the plurality of vacancy sites in the dealuminated framework to produce a zeotype material having a zeolite-type framework comprising the heteroatoms. In addition, a process is provided for producing a stannosilicate comprising a zeolite-type framework comprising Sn heteroatoms incorporated therein which form Sn sites in the zeolite-type framework each having an open configuration or a closed configuration.

Abstract: A temporary aqueous aerosol paint composition comprising an aqueous paint component, including an aqueous solvent, and an aqueous propellant component. At least one embodiment of the composition includes an amount of water as the aqueous solvent. The composition is formulated to minimize and/or eliminate the hazards presented by various volatile and non-volatile organic compounds present in known aerosol paint compositions, by eliminating or minimizing inclusion of such organic compounds. Further, the composition is developed to facilitate enhanced degradation in a short period of time, while also including elements to increase the performance when in use. A variety of pigment compounds may be used in the composition, permitting a variety of applications. The present invention is also directed to a method for preparing the temporary aqueous aerosol paint composition. This method includes adding the compounds to a reaction vessel and mixing thoroughly via a plurality of addition steps and mixing cycles.
