Publication number: 20250257777Abstract: There is provided a bush for resisting vibrations between two components, such as the engine and chassis of a vehicle and which can be inserted into a housing. In an embodiment, the bush comprises an outer anchor part having a tubular sidewall defining a bore; an inner anchor part within the bore; a first resilient portion extending between the outer anchor part and the inner anchor part and operably engaged with the outer anchor part and the inner anchor part to isolate vibrations therebetween; a second resilient portion positioned on an outer surface of the sidewall and configured in use to contact the housing; an intermediate resilient portion interposed between the first and second resilient portions, wherein the outer anchor part comprises an aperture extending through the sidewall, and the intermediate resilient portion extends through the aperture.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2023Publication date: August 14, 2025Applicant: DN Automotive Germany GmbHInventors: Jan Geisen, Robin Pauly, Michaela Sommer, Christoph Ruland, Jonathan Morton

Patent number: 12345307Abstract: A tuning element that can be integrally formed with a resilient body of a bush and configured to reduce dynamic stiffness increases associated with eigenmodes of the resilient body within a predetermined operational vibration frequency range. The tuning element may resemble an upstanding wall or wing on an outer surface of the resilient body. The resilient body may comprise a plurality of radial arms having axial passageways therebetween. The tuning element may bridge the passageways. A bush configured in this way may be particular suitable for use in scenario where the operational vibration frequency range comprises high frequency, such as an engine mount for an electric vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2019Date of Patent: July 1, 2025Assignee: DN Automotive Germany GmbHInventors: Jan Geisen, Jonathan Morton, Christian Stanka, Michael Lines, Werner Kaiser, SeonDoSeong Cho

Patent number: 11210854Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media can determine a placement in a camera view for displaying an augmented reality (AR) advertisement, where the camera view is associated with a computing device. An AR advertisement for a user associated with the computing device can be determined based on attributes associated with the user. Display of the AR advertisement can be caused at the determined placement in the camera view.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2017Date of Patent: December 28, 2021Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: John Samuel Barnett, Dantley Davis, Congxi Lu, Jonathan Morton, Peter Vajda, Joshua Charles Harris

Patent number: 11030440Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can identify a first user depicted in image content captured by a second user. It is determined that the first user should be obscured in the image content based on privacy settings. The image content is modified to obscure the first user.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2017Date of Patent: June 8, 2021Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: John Samuel Barnett, Dantley Davis, Congxi Lu, Jonathan Morton, Peter Vajda, Joshua Charles Harris

Patent number: 10388002Abstract: In one embodiment, a computing system may access a training image and a reference image of a person and an incomplete image. A generate may generate an in-painted image based on the incomplete image, and a discriminator may be used to determine whether each of the in-painted image, the training image, and the reference image is likely generated by the generator. The system may compute losses based on the determinations and update the discriminator accordingly. Using the updated discriminator, the system may determine whether a second in-painted image generated by the generator is likely generated by the generator. The system may compute a loss based on the determination and update the generator accordingly. Once training is complete, the generator may be used to generate a modified version of a given image, such as making the eyes of a person appear open even if they were closed in the input image.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2017Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Cristian Canton Ferrer, Brian Dolhansky, Thomas Ward Meyer, Jonathan Morton
