Abstract: A vehicle dash cam may be configured to execute one or more neural networks (and/or other artificial intelligence), such as based on input from one or more of the cameras and/or other sensors associated with the dash cam, to intelligently detect safety events in real-time. Detection of a safety event may trigger an in-cab alert to make the driver aware of the safety risk. The dash cam may include logic for determining which asset data to transmit to a backend server in response to detection of a safety event, as well as which asset data to transmit to the backend server in response to analysis of sensor data that did not trigger a safety event. The asset data transmitted to the backend server may be further analyzed to determine if further alerts should be provided to the driver and/or to a safety manager.

The user rendered context of the user application can receive an input; and send, responsive to receiving the input, an event notification to the user programmer context of the user application. The user rendered context can further receive, from the user programmer context, a difference tree to update the current render tree, and update the current render tree based on the difference tree.

Abstract: Techniques for implementing and/or operating a system that includes a pipe fitting to be secured to a pipe segment, in which the pipe fitting includes a grab ring having a grab notch and a fitting jacket to be conformally deformed around tubing of the pipe segment to facilitate securing the pipe fitting to the pipe segment. The system includes a swage machine, which includes a grab plate having a grab tab that matingly interlocks with the grab notch to facilitate securing the pipe fitting to the swage machine, a die plate including a die that opens away from the grab plate, and a swaging actuator secured to the die plate. The swage machine operates the swaging actuator to move the die plate over the fitting jacket in an outwardly axial direction away from the grab plate to facilitate conformally deforming the fitting jacket around the tubing of the pipe segment.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to, inter alia, cells expressing both a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and membrane bound IL-12 and the use of these cells to target and treat cancers (e.g., solid tumors and cancers expressing CD19, CD22, BCMA, PSCA, HER2, TAG-72, and PSCA). The disclosure also relates to cells expressing a membrane bound IL-12.

Abstract: An Internet of Things (IoT) or vehicle dash cam may store both a high-resolution and low-resolution video stream on a device. The video streams are selectively accessible by remote devices. Because of the relatively smaller storage requirements of low-resolution video files, retaining of additional video data on the vehicle device (beyond what would be possible with only high-resolution video) is possible. The user may be provided an option to adjust the amount of low-resolution and high-resolution video to store on the device. A combined media file may be generated by a device to include time-synced high-resolution video, low-resolution video, and/or metadata for a particular time period.

Abstract: Apparatuses and techniques for implementing usage-based disturbance counter clearance are described. In example implementations, a memory device includes a memory array having multiple rows. The memory device also includes multiple usage-based disturbance counters that are associated with the memory array. The memory device further includes logic that performs a refresh operation on a row of the multiple rows responsive to a refresh command. The logic also clears a usage-based disturbance counter of the multiple usage-based disturbance counters responsive to the refresh command. Here, the usage-based disturbance counter stores a quantity of accesses to the row of the multiple rows. This can reduce a frequency of performing usage-based disturbance mitigation procedures that would otherwise be applied to the multiple usage-based disturbance counters, thereby saving power and avoiding denial-of-service periods with the memory array.
