  • Patent number: 12205294
    Abstract: Described herein are computerized methods and systems for authentication of a physical document. An image capture device coupled to a mobile device captures images of a physical document, during which the mobile device adjusts operational parameters of the image capture device, resulting in a sequence of images captured using different capture settings. The mobile device partitions the sequence of images into subsets of images, wherein each subset comprises images with a similar alignment of the physical document and captured using the same capture settings. The mobile device processes the subsets of images to identify a region of interest in each image. The mobile device generates a representation of the identified region of interest using the processed images, generates an authentication score for the document using the representation of the identified region of interest, and determines whether the physical document is authentic based upon the authentication score.

  • Publication number: 20250018940
    Abstract: Vehicles and related systems and methods are provided for mitigating lane departures, alternatively referred to as lane keeping assistance. One method of assisting vehicle operation involves determining a control trajectory for the vehicle over a prediction horizon that satisfies one or more steering angle constraints for operating a steering system of the vehicle based at least in part on a current steering angle, a first difference between the control trajectory and a reference lateral trajectory for the vehicle and a second difference between the control trajectory and a lane boundary, for example, by minimizing a weighted sum of the differences. The method continues by determining a steering angle command for the vehicle based at least in part on the control trajectory and autonomously operating one or more actuators onboard the vehicle in accordance with the steering angle command prior to the vehicle crossing the lane boundary.

  • Publication number: 20250009921
    Abstract: Systems and methods for cleaning and disinfecting contaminated tube lumens are described herein. One system includes an ultraviolet light source and a sterile fluid reservoir fluidly coupled to a liquid light guide. The system is configured to allow simultaneous access and propagation of ultraviolet light and fluid in a tube having a lumen to be cleaned and disinfected. The light guide can be moved inside the tube and simultaneously emit ultraviolet light through its walls and at its distal end into the interior of the contaminated tube. A flush of sterile fluid from an open end of the liquid light guide removes debris and micro-organism detached from the inner surface during light exposure. The sterile fluid can be a high refractive index ionic solution promoting light propagation.
