Abstract: Systems, methods, tangible non-transitory computer-readable media, and devices for autonomous vehicle operation are provided. For example, a method can include receiving trip data that includes information associated with a request for the autonomous vehicle at a pick-up location. The autonomous vehicle can then travel to the pick-up location. The autonomous vehicle can detect one or more signals associated with the trip data. In response to determining that the one or more signals satisfy one or more broadcast criteria associated with authorizing access to the autonomous vehicle, the autonomous vehicle can activate one or more vehicle systems associated with fulfilling the request for the autonomous vehicle at the pick-up location. The one or more broadcast criteria can be based in part on one or more properties of the one or more signals.

Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to signaling status of an autonomous vehicle to a rider or potential rider. In one example, a computer-implemented method for communicating autonomous vehicle status includes obtaining, by a computing system comprising one or more computing devices, data associated with a state of an autonomous vehicle. The method further includes determining, by the computing system, one or more vehicle indications indicative of the state of the autonomous vehicle based at least in part on the data associated with the state of the autonomous vehicle. The method further includes providing, by the computing system, control data for one or more visual indicators associated with the autonomous vehicle to communicate the one or more determined vehicle indications.

Abstract: A rocker switch may include a housing and an actuator pivotably mounted relative to the housing for movement between an initial position and an actuated position. The actuator may include an exterior face defining a first contact surface and a second contact surface, the first contact surface being substantially planar and disposed within a first contact plane, and the second contact surface being substantially planar and disposed within a second contact plane, wherein the second contact plane is spaced from and substantially parallel to the first contact plane.

Abstract: A pallet truck is provided comprising a steerable unit; a fork carriage; a set of forks coupled to the fork carriage; and a tray non-removably coupled to one of the fork carriage and the forks. The tray is movable between a workpiece-receiving position where the tray rests on the forks and a stowed position where the tray is disengaged from the forks.

Abstract: A frame structure is configured for use with a patient support to support equipment and accessories above a patient on the patient support. The frame structure comprises a head end frame portion and a side frame portion to extend upwardly from the patient support. A coupler is configured to be attached to the frame structure.
