Abstract: A system and a method for performing exchange of lidar datapoints between a lidar sensor and a host computing device are provided. The lidar sensor stores a sensor payload size range, and the host computing device stores a host payload size range. When the lidar connection is initiated, the host computing device and the lidar sensor perform handshaking to determine an overlapping range between the host sensor payload size range and the sensor payload size range, and to negotiate an acceptable datapoint payload size based on the overlapping range. Once the handshaking is complete, the lidar connection may be performed using the acceptable data point payload size as a payload size thereof. Thus, the payload size is independent of a maximum transmission unit (MTU) of an Ethernet.

Abstract: An apparatus for receiving wireless power is provided. The apparatus comprises a receive coupler configured to receive the wireless power from a wireless power transmitter. The apparatus comprises a receive circuit electrically connected to the receive coupler, the receive circuit configured to provide power to a load. The apparatus comprises a controller circuit configured to provide a first amount of power from the receive circuit to the load. The controller circuit is further configured to reduce the first amount of power to a second amount of power for a duration of communication with the wireless power transmitter to increase a difference between a first impedance and a second impedance of the receive circuit compared to when the first amount of power is provided to the load.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for remotely controlling winch operation via a user interface of a remote. In one example, a user interface of a remote for a winch includes a menu display including a plurality of menu items, the menu items navigable and selectable with a series of buttons of the remote. The user interface further includes a plurality of control displays, each of the plurality of control displays generated upon selection of a corresponding menu item of the plurality of menu items, each of the plurality of control displays including selectable icons for controlling one of an operation of a winch, an operation of one or more auxiliary devices, or settings of the remote.
