  • Publication number: 20240144737
    Abstract: Systems/techniques that facilitate artificially intelligent provision of post-vehicular-collision evidence are provided. In various embodiments, a system can receive one or more electronic notifications broadcasted by a vehicle. In various aspects, the system can determine, via parsing, whether the one or more electronic notifications indicate that a vehicular collision not involving the vehicle has occurred in a vicinity of the vehicle. In various instances, the system can initiate, in response to a determination that the one or more electronic notifications indicate that the vehicular collision has occurred, one or more electronic actions based on the vehicular collision.

  • Publication number: 20240144750
    Abstract: Systems/techniques that facilitate artificially intelligent provision of post-vehicular-collision evidence are provided. In various embodiments, a system can be onboard a first vehicle. In various aspects, the system can capture, via one or more first cameras or one or more first microphones of the first vehicle, vicinity data associated with a first vicinity of the first vehicle. In various instances, the system can determine, via execution of a deep learning neural network on the vicinity data, whether a vehicular collision not involving the first vehicle has occurred in the first vicinity of the first vehicle. In various cases, the system can record, in response to a determination that the vehicular collision has occurred and via the one or more first cameras or the one or more first microphones, first post-collision evidence associated with the first vicinity of the first vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20240144751
    Abstract: Systems/techniques that facilitate artificially intelligent provision of post-vehicular-collision evidence are provided. In various embodiments, a system can be onboard a vehicle and can capture, via one or more cameras or microphones of the vehicle, vicinity data associated with a vicinity of the vehicle. In various instances, the system can generate, via execution of a deep learning neural network on the vicinity data, a classification label indicating whether a vehicular collision not involving the vehicle has occurred in the vicinity of the vehicle. In various cases, the system can record, in response to the classification label indicating that the vehicular collision has occurred and via the one or more cameras or the one or more microphones, post-collision evidence associated with the vicinity of the vehicle. In various aspects, the system can broadcast the classification label and the post-collision evidence to an emergency service computing device.

  • Patent number: 11067435
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method determining a spatial light distribution in an environment. The method comprising: acquiring (602) a spatially resolved light data set (100) by collecting light from the environment (202) using a camera, wherein the light data set (100) comprises a plurality of data elements of a first type (106), each data element of the first type (106) being associated with a vertical angle span and a horizontal angle span, wherein the vertical angle span and the horizontal angle span pertain to angles from which light from the environment (202) is incident on the camera, and each data element of the first type (106) comprising data pertaining to an amount of incident light within a first spectral range; and determining (604), based on the light data set (100), a vertical spatial distribution (122) of the light within the first spectral range. The measurement is taken with a RGB camera and the pixel intensities of row are summed up and averaged.

  • Publication number: 20060201089
    Abstract: A reduced thickness and/or reduced width insulation product is provided for use in combination with spray-on foam insulation. The insulation product is configured to be inserted into standard-size spaces between adjacent wall studs to which a spray-on foam insulation has been applied. The reduced size of the insulation product is specifically designed so that the combined width and thickness of the insulation product and the spray-on foam insulation fill the entirety of the building space, but do not overfill the space.

  • Patent number: 6209919
    Abstract: A folder comprising a sheet (1) which is pleated in a concertina-like fashion (10, 11, 12) and which, in a pleated state, is folded around fold lines (14, 15) that extend perpendicularly to the pleat line (10, 11, 12) in the pleated sheet, wherein the sheet (1) is surrounded by a protective cover (2) when in a fully folded-up state. The two sheet fold-lines (14, 15) extending perpendicular to the pleat lines (10, 11, 12) face in mutually the same direction, so as to enable the two end-panels of the pleated sheet (1) to be folded in overlapping relationship with the center panel. The cover (2) is a paperboard cover against which one pleated panel (40) of the sheet is fastened in a centered position on one side of the cover (2), wherein the cover also includes fold lines (24, 25) which coincide generally with the fold lines (14, 15) on the sheet (1).
