Abstract: A system including vehicle and control system for a vehicle, the control system having one or more controllers and being arranged to: receive a request signal indicative of a request to move the vehicle in a first direction and sensor data indicative of one or more objects in an environment of the vehicle; and output a movement signal to cause an application of torque to one or more wheels of the vehicle to move the vehicle in the first direction in dependence on the request signal and to align the vehicle longitudinally to a detected first object in dependence on the sensor data, the aligned vehicle being positioned at least partly alongside the first object.

Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to at least one computer programmed to provide a user interface to a user via first and second computer devices. Through the user interface provided via the first computer device, the computer may receive first data from the user indicating the user's expected retirement spend in at least one of a plurality of spending categories at a first level of detail and store the data at a data location associated with the user. Through user interface provided via the second computer device, the computer may receive identifier data indicating the user and retrieve the first data from the data location associated with the utilizing the identifier data. The first data may be supplemented by second data indicating the user's expected retirement spend in at least one of the plurality of spending categories at a second level of detail.

Abstract: There is provided a control system for controlling a system, the control system comprising one or more controllers, configured to: receive a rule configuration signal, the rule configuration signal specifying properties of a rule, the properties comprising an indicator of an action to be carried out and at least one associated trigger condition; store the indicator of the action and the at least one associated trigger condition at a storage location; determine whether the rule is to be evaluated by the control system; and if the determination indicates that the rule is to be evaluated by the control system, and upon the at least one associated trigger condition being met: generate at least one control signal in accordance with the indicated action; and output the at least one control signal to at least one vehicle system to be controlled.

Abstract: A method for providing investing services is provided. Through a first computer device user interface, a computer system receives first data from the user indicating the user's expected retirement spend in a plurality of spending categories at a first level of detail and stores the data at a data location. Through a second computer device user interface, the computer system receives identifier data indicating the user and retrieves the first data from the data location. The first data is supplemented by second data indicating the user's expected retirement spend in the plurality of spending categories at a more detailed second level of detail. A target asset level necessary for the user to fund a retirement considering expected retirement spend for the plurality of spending categories is determined considering the first and second data. The target asset level is displayed to the user.

Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to a computer system comprising at least one computer programmed to provide a user interface to a user via a first computer device. The user interface may comprise a first axis describing a desired level of involvement of the user in investment decisions and a second axis describing a risk tolerance of the user. The user interface may also comprise a first icon representing a first position on the first and second axes and a second icon representing a second position on the first and second axes. When the first or second icons are activated, the interface may display a description of respective example investors having investment characteristics corresponding to the respective first and second positions on the axes. The user interface may also comprise first and second slider bars corresponding to the respective axes. The slider bars may be movable in response to a signal from a first input device in communication with the computer system.
