  • Publication number: 20250256697
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a system that performs a method of operating the vehicle. The system includes a road grade sensor for measuring a road grade of a road section being traversed by the vehicle, a speedometer for measuring a vehicle speed, a power flow direction sensor for obtaining a power flow direction of the vehicle, a pedal position sensor for measuring a pedal position, and a processor. The processor is configured to determine an axle torque upper limit for a motor of the vehicle based on the road grade, the vehicle speed and the power flow direction, determine an axle torque request based on the vehicle speed and the pedal position, determine a clipped axle torque request from the axle torque request and the axle torque upper limit, and control the vehicle by implementing the clipped axle torque request at the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20250252192
    Abstract: A system and method for identifying and addressing vulnerabilities in artificial intelligence models using a large language model. The system generates a set of topics for at least one specific domain and a set of interaction topics associated with the topics. A matrix is created with the topics on one axis and the interaction topics on another. The system generates prompts for junctures in the matrix that violate a corresponding topic. The prompts are input into the large language model to generate violative responses. These responses are then scored based on a predetermined scoring rubric.

  • Patent number: 12354409
    Abstract: A system for motion capture of human body movements includes sensor nodes configured for coupling to respective portions of a human subject. Each sensor node generates inertial sensor data as the human subject engages in a physical activity session and processes the inertial sensor data according to a first machine-learned model to generate a set of local motion determinations. One or more computing devices receive the sets of local determinations and process them according to a second machine-learned model to generate a body motion profile. The computing device(s) provide an animated display of an avatar moving according to the body motion profile and generate training data based on input received from a viewer in response to the animated display. The computing device(s) modify at least one of the first machine-learned model or the second machine-learned model based at least in part on the training data.

  • Patent number: 12325504
    Abstract: A ballast dispenser system and method for flight vehicles, such as high altitude lighter than air vehicles. The system passively retains ballast without power and deploys ballast in response to applying power. An electro-permanent magnet passively retains ballast within the dispenser. Application of power to a coil produces an opposing magnetic field that reduces the overall strength of a net magnetic field acting on the ballast. Lateral positional control of the electro-permanent magnet provides calibration and control of the retaining magnetic field strength. A collapsible silo may hold ballast prior to dispensing ballast and collapse upon landing for minimizing damage.
