Abstract: A battery armor system and method of deploying the same are provided. The battery armor system may comprise one or more sensors configured to detect whether one or more conditions within an environment of a vehicle are met, a moveable skid plate, positioned under a vehicle battery, configured to move between a retracted position and a deployed position, and one or more actuators configured to move the moveable skid plate between the retracted position and the deployed position. In the deployed position, an airgap may be formed between the moveable skid plate and the vehicle battery. The one or more actuators may be configured to move the moveable skid plate into the deployed position upon detection that the one or more conditions are met.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing smart regenerative braking incorporating learned driver braking habits are provided. The method may comprise receiving, from one or more sensors coupled to a vehicle, one or more input signals. The vehicle may comprise a computing device. The method may comprise, using the computing device, implementing an advanced driver-assistance system and map info processing model to determine whether, within an environment of the vehicle, there is at least one of a traffic sign, a traffic light, and a preceding vehicle between the vehicle and the traffic sign or traffic light, implementing a learning model configured to use one or more braking habits of a driver of the vehicle to tune a calibration factor, and implementing a desired braking distance model to determine, using the calibration factor, a desired deceleration and convert the desired deceleration to a desired torque for a motor.
