Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide smart alerts to users, e.g., alerts to users about diabetic states that are only provided when it makes sense to do so, e.g., when the system can predict or estimate that the user is not already cognitively aware of their current condition, e.g., particularly where the current condition is a diabetic state warranting attention. In this way, the alert or alarm is personalized and made particularly effective for that user. Such systems and methods still alert the user when action is necessary, e.g., a bolus or temporary basal rate change, or provide a response to a missed bolus or a need for correction, but do not alert when action is unnecessary, e.g., if the user is already estimated or predicted to be cognitively aware of the diabetic state warranting attention, or if corrective action was already taken.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to a motor vehicle floor assembly, and further relates to a method of constructing a motor vehicle which reduces the number of fixing points (i.e., fastener attachment points) on a vehicle chassis. An example floor assembly includes a vehicle frame, a floor panel, and at least one underbody vehicle component forming a subassembly with the floor panel installed to an underside of the vehicle frame. The floor panel comprises at least one recess configured to receive a portion of the vehicle frame.

Abstract: A motor vehicle floor system includes an integral seat attachment point, and an over-molded seat attachment insert of a floor. The integral seat attachment point is provided on the seat attachment insert.

Abstract: A motor vehicle seat is disclosed having an armrest assembly including an armrest and a retractable utility support arm having a ball-shaped mount for use when extended away from the armrest to mount a small item of utility in a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle. The ball-shaped mount is stowable when not in use in a recess formed in the armrest so as not to cause an obstruction within the passenger compartment.

Abstract: A seat assembly for a vehicle includes a seat back having a cushion surface forming a bolster along a lateral edge thereof, a recess formed in the bolster, and a retractable seatbelt. When in a stowed condition, the seatbelt extends along the bolster between a top and a bottom thereof, and a portion of the seatbelt passes over the recess to create a space between an edge of the seatbelt and the cushion surface. The recess is sized and located to enable a seat occupant to insert fingers into the space and easily grasp the seatbelt for deploying it. The recess may be a depression in the cushion surface, or may be formed by a first portion of the bolster having a first radius smaller than a second radius of a second, un-recessed portion of the bolster adjoining the first portion.

Abstract: A motor vehicle having a motor vehicle seating arrangement mounted on a floor of the motor vehicle is disclosed in which a utility item in such as a central seat is supported by two spaced apart outer seats so that no floor engaging support is required for the central seat. Advantageously, the central seat is slidingly supported by the pair of outer seats so as to permit one of the outer seats to be slid forward to improve access to a row of seats mounted to the rear of the motor vehicle seating arrangement without moving the central seat or the other outer seat.
