  • Patent number: 12214841
    Abstract: Various electric balance vehicles are described. In some embodiments, the vehicle has first and second housings with platforms to support a user's feet. The first and second housings can be rotatable relative to each other. The vehicle can have first and second wheel assemblies. A support member can extend within tapered portions of the first and second housings. In some embodiments, one of the first and second housings can rotate relative to the support member and the other of the housings can be rotationally fixed relative to the support member. The vehicle can balance and provide locomotion to the user. The vehicle can be light, compact, and/or have a low center of gravity.

  • Publication number: 20250020094
    Abstract: Hydrogen generation systems and processes are described that facilitate on-board generation of hydrogen for use in internal combustion engines. A hydrogen generator converts diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) or other urea-based fluids into a hydrogen-rich product gas. In some embodiments waste heat from the engine is used to preheat the DEF for the hydrogen generator. Steam reformers, electrolyzers and fuel reformers that generate hydrogen using the DEF are described.

  • Patent number: 9316513
    Abstract: A computer system stores calibration information corresponding to respective sets of sensor measurements associated with respective operating environments. After storing, in a first data structure, calibration information for a first operating environment, the system determines a current operating environment of the device. When the current operating environment of the device is consistent with the first operating environment and the calibration information for the first operating environment meets predefined measurement diversity criteria, the system calibrates at least one sensor for the first operating environment using the stored calibration information for the first operating environment. When the current operating environment of the device is inconsistent with the first operating environment, the system excludes the stored calibration information for the first operating environment when calibrating one or more sensors for the current operating environment.
