Abstract: A method, system, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for providing a shared vehicle experience. The method includes capturing an exterior video stream that depicts an exterior environment of a vehicle, and receiving remote user information indicating a bodily movement of a remote user. The method further includes generating and displaying an augmented video stream comprising a dynamic avatar representing the remote user as a virtual passenger, the dynamic avatar being updated based on the remote user information while the augmented video stream is being displayed in the vehicle. At least a portion of the exterior video stream and occupant information are sent to a computer device that causes, based on the at least a portion of the exterior video stream and the occupant information, a display device of the remote user to output an additional augmented video stream that provides the remote user with an experience of being in the vehicle.

Abstract: A fuel system controller obtains fuel burn data from an engine control module (ECM). The fuel system controller also obtains location data from a telematics control module, such as GPS location data identifying the location of a vehicle. The fuel system controller determines the vehicle's base location based on the location data, and determines how far the vehicle can travel based on the fuel burn data. The fuel system controller determines how many fueling stations are with a threshold distance of the determined distance to empty. The fuel system controller can use that data to identify which, and how many, fueling stations are within a threshold distance of the determined distance to empty. The fuel system controller can provide a fueling warning indication based on the number of fueling stations that are within the determined distance to empty.

Abstract: A seated treadmill has a structure with a front portion and a rear portion. A front roller is rotatably mounted on the front portion of the structure, a rear roller is rotatably mounted on the rear portion of the structure, and a belt circumscribes the front and rear rollers. The front and rear rollers are much closer together than prior art treadmills, typically about 10-30 inches. The treadmill may further include a remote control for controlling operation of the treadmill, and a shutoff switch in the event that too much force is placed upon the treadmill, such as if the user attempts to stand on the treadmill.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method and apparatus for battery charging. The method comprises the steps of connecting a battery to a battery charging apparatus and supplying a voltage and current to the battery, wherein a constant voltage is supplied for an extended period of time. At the beginning of the constant voltage being supplied, the initial charging current being supplied to the battery is noted (Amp). During the period in which a constant voltage is supplied, the rate of change of the charging current supplied to the battery (dl/dt) is monitored. The method includes calculating the ratio: K=Amp/(dl/dt) during the period in which a constant voltage is supplied, and when K equals a preselected value, maintaining the charging current at the instant value for an extended period of time.
