  • Publication number: 20240044056
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a knitted multi-layer fabric construction that provides the ability to cool skin to below a current temperature whether wetted or dry. The knit uses four separate yarns which collectively work together to produce enhanced cooling. Knits can include warp knit, seamless, hosiery, flat bed, spacer, and double knits. Various finishing methods may also be employed to enhance the cooling power of the fabric.

  • Publication number: 20210304608
    Abstract: To visualize planned behavior of an autonomous vehicle (AV) traveling along a roadway, a user interface engine receives data describing a planned pathway of the AV along the roadway and object data describing an object having a predicted pathway crossing the planned pathway of the AV at a cross point. The user interface engine classifies the object either an asserting object or a yielding object based on a prediction of whether the object reaches the cross point before the AV or after the AV. The user interface engine generates an image that includes the planned pathway of the AV and the object in the environment of the AV. The image of the object indicates whether the object is classified as an asserting object or a yielding object.
