  • Patent number: 12007157
    Abstract: A transportable refrigerated container has an interior chamber sub-divided into separate compartments by movable partitions that allow free air circulation to maintain the compartments at the same temperature and a plurality of security doors in at least one of the sides of the container, each door affording access only to a selected respective compartment or group of compartments. A method of distributing perishable goods from a supply depot to a plurality of customers utilizes such a container. At the supply depot, goods for different customers are loaded into separate compartments and the container is then transported to a location convenient to all the customers. There, delivery drivers who can each only open a door leading to a compartment containing goods intended for a specific customer, transfer the goods from the compartment onto a smaller vehicle and deliver them to their respective customer.

  • Publication number: 20240183752
    Abstract: In various examples, sensor data recorded in the real-world may be leveraged to generate transformed, additional, sensor data to test one or more functions of a vehicle—such as a function of an AEB, CMW, LDW, ALC, or ACC system. Sensor data recorded by the sensors may be augmented, transformed, or otherwise updated to represent sensor data corresponding to state information defined by a simulation test profile for testing the vehicle function(s). Once a set of test data has been generated, the test data may be processed by a system of the vehicle to determine the efficacy of the system with respect to any number of test criteria. As a result, a test set including additional or alternative instances of sensor data may be generated from real-world recorded sensor data to test a vehicle in a variety of test scenarios.

  • Publication number: 20240153469
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for determining an advertisement based on the relative motion of an audience to the advertisement. The system determines the relative motion of the audience to the advertisement and the audience demographics to determine advertisement content and format. The system causes to be displayed the advertisement having both the determined content and format. For example, the systems and methods present a static advertisement image to an audience with a large relative motion to the advertisement, allowing the advertiser to present information to moving audiences who will not be potentially distracted by a video advertisement.

  • Patent number: 11979635
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for recommending content restrictions to a user based on chatter in a social network of the user. The system analyzes chatter in the social network to identify a correlation between what is posted by users and the content that the users are posting about. The system stores a mapping between chatter and expected attributes of the content referenced by the chatter. The system will determine whether to block the content when an expected attribute is associated with a content restriction.

  • Patent number: 11978321
    Abstract: A method for enhancing resource utilization in Texas Holdem poker comprises administering a primary Texas Holdem poker round for a plurality of players and, concurrently with the primary Texas Holdem poker round, administering a secondary Texas Holdem poker round among at least some players who have folded out of the primary Texas Holdem poker round. These folded players retain their respective hole cards from the primary Texas Holdem poker round for the secondary Texas Holdem poker round, and the secondary Texas Holdem poker round utilizes at least one otherwise idle resource from the primary Texas Holdem poker round. For physical games played at a table with physical playing cards, the otherwise idle resource(s) comprises table positions of folded players, and for computerized poker games played with virtual playing cards, the otherwise idle resource(s) comprise the remote communication connections between the dealer computer system and the player computer systems.

  • Publication number: 20240112800
    Abstract: A method for continuous data transfer is provided. Data blocks are generated from a continuous data stream captured via a physiological monitoring device by segmenting data from the continuous data stream into the data blocks. A time at which the data associated with each data block occurs is determined and a sample number is associated with each data block. The data blocks are transmitted from the physiological monitoring device to a server. The data blocks are ordered on the server based on the time and the sample number associated with each data block.

  • Publication number: 20240092470
    Abstract: A transportable outboard motor has a tiller which is pivotable about a lateral tilt axis into a plurality of tilt positions and also pivotable about an axial yaw axis into a plurality of yaw positions. The tiller is pivotable about the axial yaw axis into a straight-ahead position, into a port yaw position which is oriented towards the port side relative to the straight-ahead position, and into a starboard yaw position which is oriented towards the starboard side relative to the straight-ahead position. The tiller is pivotable downwardly about the lateral tilt axis from the port yaw position, and downwardly about the lateral tilt axis from the starboard yaw position. Pivoting the tiller into the plurality of yaw positions creates space for a user to manually grasp a swivel tube and thereby lift the transportable outboard motor from a rear-laydown position.
