  • Patent number: 12293427
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for detecting non-compliant use of a micro-mobility vehicle, for example, based on parking the micro-mobility vehicle outside of a designated area. In an embodiment, a processor detects that a micro-mobility vehicle shared by a plurality of users has transitioned from an operational state to a parked state, where the micro-mobility vehicle was operated by a user of the plurality of users when in the operational state. The processor determines a location of the micro-mobility vehicle while the micro-mobility vehicle is in the parked state, and evaluates whether it is permissible to transition the micro-mobility vehicle to the parked state at the location. Responsive to determining that it is not permissible to transition to the parked state at the location, the processor updates a profile of the user to indicate non-compliant use of the micro-mobility vehicle.

  • Patent number: 12254777
    Abstract: Example embodiments are directed to systems and methods for providing cloud service to an onboard aerial vehicle system, A cloud service system accesses a flight related data. Using the flight related data, the cloud service system generates flight operations in a format of an avionics system on an aerial vehicle. A communication link is established over a communication network between the cloud service system and the aerial vehicle and the generated flight operations is transmitted to the aerial vehicle as digital data sent as data packets. The cloud service system then monitors, in real time, the aerial vehicle during a flight, wherein the monitoring comprises receiving and storing in-flight data from the aerial vehicle and the in-flight data is data reconstructed from a plurality of data packets received from the aerial vehicle. The cloud service system determines, based on the received in-flight data, whether to update the flight operations.

  • Patent number: 12232618
    Abstract: A simplified, compact, recliner mechanism is provided which can be adapted to many types of recliner design. A front linkage assembly and a rear linkage assembly provide the desired movement of the seat and back when moving from the TV position to the fully reclined position, obviating the need for a track and roller design. Moreover, a front pivot link and a rear pivot link are provided and oriented in a manner that allows the desired forward seat movement as the recliner moves from the closed position to the TV position. The geometries of the front linkage assembly, the rear linkage assembly, the front pivot link and the rear pivot link allow a slim profile design allowing great flexibility in the design of the recliner.

  • Patent number: 12201218
    Abstract: A lift and recliner mechanism for use in seating units is provided that allows the ottoman to be extended independently of the back recline. In some aspects, the seat pitch is changed through a linkage as the ottoman extends, and as the back reclines. In other aspects, the seat pitch is changed using a separate motor. The seating unit can be moved to a lifted position, a TV position, a fully-reclined position, or a zero-gravity position with the ottoman partially extended, the seat pitch partially changed and the back partially reclined.

  • Publication number: 20240378882
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for monitoring a location of a client device associated with a transportation service and generating augmented reality images for display on the client device. The systems and methods use sensor data from the client device and a device localization process to monitor the location of the client device by comparing renderings of images captured by the client device to renderings of the vicinity of the pickup location. The systems and methods determine navigation instructions from the user's current location to the pickup location and select one or more augmented reality elements associated with the navigation instructions and/or landmarks along the route to the pickup location. The systems and methods instruct the client device to overlay the selected augmented reality elements on a video feed of the client device.

  • Publication number: 20240365979
    Abstract: A recliner mechanism is provided with independently operable motors. Each motor may effect an independent movement. For example, three motors may be provided: a seat pitch motor causing a rotation of the seat to change the seat pitch in relation to the support surface on which the recliner sits; an ottoman motor to extend and retract an ottoman; and a back motor causing a rotation of the back in relation to the seat. And, due to an improved positioning of the pivot point for the seat in relation to the pivot point of the ottoman motor; and positioning of the pivot point of the seat in relation to the pivot point of the back rotation motor, the independent operation of each of the motors is achieved without the need for any special, coordinated programming of the motors.

  • Patent number: 12106121
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for utilizing directed acyclic graphs for deployment instructions. A computer-implemented method can include various operations. Instructions may be executed by a computing device to perform parses of configuration data associated with a deployment. The computing device may cause a first directed acyclic graph (DAG) to be generated, the first DAG being utilized for deploying a first resource based on the parses. A second DAG may be generated for deploying execution targets based on the parses, the second DAG specifying dependencies between execution targets of the deployment. The computing device may generate a linked list data structure based on the parses and may deploy the computing system by traversal of the linked list data structure.

  • Publication number: 20240267312
    Abstract: The disclosure is directed at a method and system for synchronizing inputs transmitted over the Internet from a set of devices. The disclosure transmits a set of individual timing packets to each of the set of devices and, after receiving a set of return individual timing packets, determines a round trip time for each of the set of return individual timing packets. The round trip time is then used to calculate a timeslot offset for each of the devices which is then used to synchronize the transmission of data between the disclosure and the set of devices.
