Publication number: 20210009136Abstract: Users within transit in a vehicle may initiate location queries to fulfill a set of interests, such as stops for food, fuel, and lodging. A device may fulfill the queries according to various factors, such as the distance of nearby locations to the user or to another location specified by the user, and the popularity of various locations. However, the user may not have specified or even chosen a route, and may wish to have interests fulfilled at a later time (e.g., stopping for food in 30 minutes), and a presentation of search results near the user's current location may be unhelpful. Presented herein are techniques for fulfilling location queries that involve predicting a route of the user, and identifying a timing window for the query results (e.g., locations that are likely to be near the user's projected location when the wishes to stop for food in 30 minutes).Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2020Publication date: January 14, 2021Inventors: David DiMeo, Andreas Hecht

Publication number: 20180184634Abstract: An insect control device that lures and traps insects. The device has a fluid retaining vessel and a grille structure with opposed surfaces that are coated with a non-drying adhesive. The grille structure has openings that are dimensioned in relationship to the body size of a target insect. Coating both of the opposed surfaces of the grille provides an initial capture surface when an insect makes minimum contact with the grille and a secondary capture surface if an egg develops into a mosquito.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 4, 2017Publication date: July 5, 2018Applicants: Novelty Manufacturing Co., Evarcha LLCInventors: Joseph David DiMeo, Barry Alan Lebost, Herbert Theodore Barnard, Daniel Jonathan Lebost

Publication number: 20170070616Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for selectively collecting vehicle telemetry data from one or more vehicles. For example, a communication data budget for a vehicle may be identified (e.g., a 5 GB per month data connection plan). A determination may be made as to whether the vehicle can provide vehicle telemetry data used to model a travel condition (e.g., road imagery, temperature, a windshield wiper state, and/or other vehicle telemetry data used to model a road safety condition). If the vehicle has remaining communication data budget available for transmission of the vehicle telemetry data without the vehicle exceeding the communication data budget for a billing cycle, then a data request for the vehicle telemetry data may be sent to the vehicle. Responsive to receiving the vehicle telemetry data from the vehicle, the travel condition may be modeled (e.g., the road condition may be determined as icy).Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2015Publication date: March 9, 2017Applicant: INRIX INC.,Inventor: David DiMeo

Patent number: 9568325Abstract: An illustrative method of data gathering includes determining that a vehicle traveling characteristic has changed beyond an expected parameter. The method further includes recording the GPS coordinates of the vehicle and ceasing recording the GPS coordinates of the vehicle when the vehicle traveling characteristic resumes the expected parameter. Finally, the method includes determining and storing a traffic control feature associated with at least one set of the GPS coordinates, if the recorded GPS coordinates of the vehicle correspond to previously recorded GPS coordinates.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2013Date of Patent: February 14, 2017Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Mark Schunder, David DiMeo, Mark Scalf

Publication number: 20060271258Abstract: A safety system (10) for a host vehicle (12) includes a voice sensor (38) that detects voice signals from a vehicle occupant. An occupant classifier (30) determines a state of mind of the vehicle occupant. A controller (13) performs a safety countermeasure in response to the state of mind of the occupant including the transmission of the state of mind to a target vehicle. A vehicle voice control system (24) includes the voice sensor (38), which detects voice signals from the vehicle occupant. A speech classifier (32) monitors a speech characteristic, including a vehicle occupant identifiable and associated speech characteristic, in response to the voice signals and associates the voice signals with a vehicle related task in response thereto. A controller (13) performs the vehicle related task in response to the voice signals and the association.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2004Publication date: November 30, 2006Applicants: FORD MOTOR COMPANY, FORD GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIESInventors: Irv Salmeen, Gary Strumolo, Ronald Miller, David DiMeo, Anna Zevalkink
