Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a battery, a vehicle body, an electric power take-off system, a lifting system, and a disconnect. The chassis supports a plurality of wheels. The battery is supported by the chassis and is configured to provide electrical power to a first motor. Rotation of the first motor selectively drives at least one of the plurality of wheels. The vehicle body is supported by the chassis and defines a receptacle for storing refuse. The electric power take-off system is coupled to the vehicle body and includes a second motor configured to convert electrical power received from the battery into hydraulic power. The lifting system is coupled to the vehicle body and is movable relative to the receptacle using hydraulic power from the electric power take-off system. The disconnect is positioned between the battery and the electric power take-off and is configured to selectively decouple the electric power take-off system from the battery.

Abstract: A file access request is received from an application. One or more file types for the file access request are identified, and one or more file hosts supporting files of the identified one or more file types are also identified. A user interface is displayed, the user interface including a hosted area. Within the hosted area, at least one of the one or more file hosts displays a portion of the user interface identifying one or more files of at least one file host that can be selected for retrieval, or one or more locations that can be selected to which the one or more files are saved.

Abstract: Multiple methods of synthesizing cannabigerol are presented. Combining olivetol with geraniol derivatives are provided. Cross-coupling methods of combing functionalized resorcinols are provided. Useful intermediates are formed during such cross-coupling steps.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for determining a driving score for an individual and updating a related vehicle-usage profile. The system and methods may include one or more processors, sensors, or transceivers to determine that an individual associated with an auto insurance policy is located in a driver seat of a vehicle for a vehicle trip. Telematics data may be collected from the sensors that indicates a time of day and an amount of time that the individual typically drives the vehicle. The telematics may be associated with the individual and a driving score for the individual may be determined. A vehicle-usage profile for the vehicle may then be updated with the telematics data or the driving score. The vehicle-usage profile may indicate a driving behavior of the individual and an auto insurance policy may be updated based on the profile.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described regarding vehicular driver evaluation. Various aspects may include monitoring a vehicle operating environment in which a vehicle is operating. A target vehicle operating within the vehicle operating environment may be identified based upon sensor data from one or more sensors associated with the vehicle. An indication of an identity of the target vehicle may be recorded and an indication of an evaluation of an operation of the target vehicle may be received by the operator of the vehicle. The indication of the evaluation of the operation of the target vehicle may indicate the quality of operation of the target vehicle. The indication of the identity of the target vehicle and the indication of the evaluation of the operation of the target vehicle may be transmitted to a remote server.

Abstract: Vehicle usage-based data, including telematics data, may be utilized to adjust one or more terms (e.g., a variable interest rate and/or variable principle amount) of a variable vehicle loan. Telematics data may include, for example, data generated via a vehicle data system and/or a mobile electronic device. The one or more terms may be additionally or alternatively be adjusted based upon transportation metrics associated with usage of the vehicle by a transportation network company (TNC) and/or TNC driver.

Abstract: System and methods for aligning event data recorded by recording devices. Recording devices create, transmit, and store alignment data. Alignment data created by a recording device is stored in the memory of the recording device with a time that is maintained by the recording device and that is relative to the time of event data recorded by the recording device that creates the alignment data. Recording devices further receive and store transmitted alignment data. Alignment data received by a recording device is stored in the memory of the recording device with a time that is maintained by the receiving recording device and that is relative to the time of event data recorded by the recording device that creates alignment data. Stored alignment data may be used to align the playback of event data of devices that have the same alignment data.

Abstract: A metallic ground grid is fabricated by forming a conductor on the isolation barrier of an integrated circuit through openings in a first insulated layer to a depth less than the first insulated layer, forming a second insulated layer on said first conductor to the height of the first insulated layer, and interconnecting selected areas of the integrated circuit and the first conductor through openings in the insulated layers by a second conductor.

Abstract: A metallic ground conductor grid applied over a planar isolation barrier in an integrated circuit provides a low resistance ground. An insulating layer, formed over the ground conductor, has apertures therein for interconnecting selected areas of the integrated circuit to the ground conductor grid.
