Abstract: Various technologies described herein pertain to systems and methods for managing moisture and preventing condensation. In one embodiment, a system is disclosed for managing moisture and preventing condensation that includes a housing having at least one porous layer or surface and a hygroscopic material disposed inside the housing.

Abstract: Systems and methods for real time and predictive diagnostics of vehicle electronic components. Circuit boards and similar vehicle electronic devices have input/output speeds on the order of tens of gigahertz (GHz). Signal integrity can be affected when operating in real time while a high speed signal travels across circuit boards. To maintain signal integrity, hardware around high speed signals is designed to match impedance and transmission lengths. Additionally, differences can occur from circuit board to circuit board due to aging during vehicle operation, and tolerances in the manufacturing process. Systems and methods are provided herein to compensate for the tolerances in the manufacturing process. The real time and predictive diagnostics of vehicle electronic components provided herein can prevent on-road vehicle failures.

Abstract: Autonomous vehicles (AVs) may have processors to perform compute operations. These processors may be susceptible to overheating, due to one or more mechanical failures that may occur in the assembly that encloses the processors. To proactively address potential overheating of these processors, temperature of the processors can be monitored over time, e.g., at launch and during AV operation. A temperature profile line can be fitted to envelop the temperature data samples. The temperature profile line can indicate an extent of overheating, the rate of regression of the assembly's ability to cool the processors and predict when the processor may reach a critical temperature in the future. Based on one or more parameters that define the temperature profile line, it is possible to determine a regression profile of the processor. The regression profile can dictate whether to take an action to compensate for the regression.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable mediums are provided for projecting one or more content items onto a surface outside of an AV. For example, a system may receive routing data including routing information and road agent information of each of one or more road agents within a predetermined distance threshold of an autonomous vehicle (AV). Additionally, the system may generate projection data including a content item associated with the routing information and the road agent information. Moreover, the system may provide projection data to a projection controller device communicating with one or more projection devices. The projection controller device may cause at least one of the one or more projection devices to project the content item onto a surface outside of the AV.

Abstract: Particular embodiments described herein provide for a system and method to help prevent condensation inside an enclosure that includes an electronic system. The system and method can determine a current relative humidity of an environment inside an enclosure that houses the electronic system, use the current relative humidity and the current maximum temperature to determine a dew point for the environment inside the enclosure, activate one or more heating elements inside the enclosure when the current minimum temperature is the same or lower than the dew point for the environment inside the enclosure, activate one or more embedded fans, and open one or more vents to help purge moisture out of the system during heating. When the current minimum temperature is higher than the dew point for the environment inside the enclosure, the system and method can allow the electronic system to power on.
