Patent number: 11975658Abstract: A camera assembly adapted for mounting to an interior of a motor vehicle on an upper surface of the steering column assembly. The camera assembly has mounting features interacting with a mounting structure that cause the camera assembly to separate from the mounting structure upon the occurrence of a collision with an object or through inertial forces acting on the camera assembly. The separation in such conditions is provided in a controlled manner through the use of cam or ramp surfaces provided in the camera assembly or mounting structure. A cable or tether may be attached to the camera assembly and mounted to the vehicle to further control movement of the camera assembly after separation.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2020Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: MAGNA ELECTRONICS, LLCInventors: Chakravarthi Mallikarjun Nagolu, Francis Joseph Judge

Publication number: 20240127360Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to manipulating and visualizing database objects that represent layers and parts of layers in insurance or other risk transfer programs. Disclosed is graphically creating placement objects, maintaining a database of objects that can be linked in trees, with policy objects linked to respective proposal objects, and coverage objects linked to the proposal objects and the policy objects. A GUI represents a placement using objects, with metadata that describes objects' statuses, with groups of objects properly nested and linked in the database of objects. User selection of a displayed first object and mode control initiates creation of second objects linked to the first object and, opening of a panel that scales the selected first object to fit the panel and allows the user to add nested second objects, by drawing an added object or entering metadata for the added object, with consistent metadata constrained with the nesting.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 20, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: OnRisk, Inc.Inventor: Francis Joseph SWEENEY

Patent number: 11955021Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a method and system (10) for classifying vehicle behaviour, particularly abnormal behaviour of civil aircraft (12). The method may comprise receiving aircraft data from an aircraft (12) which is to be classified; and determining whether the received aircraft data comprises identification information for the aircraft (12).

Patent number: 11876753Abstract: In some embodiments, a method receives a first signal that is sent in a first direction in a network. Communications in the network are full duplex communications in a same frequency band. The first signal is amplified in the first direction. The method trains a first echo canceller to cancel a first echo signal from the first signal where the first echo signal is received in a second direction. After training the first echo canceller, the trained first echo canceller is enabled. The method receives a second signal in the second direction that is sent in the second direction in the network. The second signal is amplified in the second direction. The method trains a second echo canceller to cancel a second echo signal received in the first direction from the second signal where the first echo canceller cancels the first echo signal that is received in the second direction.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2022Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: ARRIS Enterprises LLCInventors: Thomas J.
