Patent number: 12208819Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for autonomous vehicles to determine driving paths and associated trajectories through unstructured or off-route driving environments. When an object is detected within a driving environment, a vehicle may determine a cost-based side association for the object. Various costs may be used in different examples, including costs based on a cost plot and/or motion primitives that may vary for terminal and non-terminal desired destinations (or ending vehicle states). Using tree searches to determine estimated candidate costs, the autonomous vehicle may compare right-side and left-side driving path costs around the object to determine a side association for the object. Based on the side association, the autonomous vehicle may determine an updated planning corridor and/or a trajectory to control the vehicle from a current state to a desired ending vehicle state.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2022Date of Patent: January 28, 2025Assignee: Zoox, Inc.Inventors: Joseph Funke, Steven Cheng Qian, Kazuhide Okamoto, Jacob Patrick Thalman, Sriram Narayanan, Yunpeng Pan

Publication number: 20240393886Abstract: Electrodes that can be formed in a flexible band of a wrist-worn device to detect hand gestures are disclosed. Multiple rows of electrodes can be configured to detect electromyography (EMG) signals produced by activity of muscles and tendons. The band can include removable electrical connections (e.g., pogo pins) to enable the electrode signals to be routed to processing circuitry in the housing of the wrist-worn device. Measurements between signals from the active electrodes and one or more reference electrodes can be obtained to capture EMG signals at a number of locations on the band. The measurement method and mode of operation (lower power coarse detection or higher power fine detection) can determine the location and number of electrodes to be measured. These EMG signals can be processed to identify hand movements and recognize gestures associated with those hand movements.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 5, 2024Publication date: November 28, 2024Inventors: Kaan E.

Publication number: 20230076716Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to gesture-control inputs to an electronic device for controlling one or more other devices. The electronic device can efficiently provide gesture control for multiple other devices by mapping a finite set of user gestures to a specific set of gesture-control elements for each of the multiple other devices. In this way a single gesture can be detected for potentially controlling various different functions of various different devices. Prior to gesture control, the electronic device may receive a selection of a particular one of the multiple other devices for control, and obtain the specific set of gesture-control elements for gesture control of that selected device.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2022Publication date: March 9, 2023Inventors: Kaan E.

Patent number: 10200275Abstract: Methods and systems for hardware-accelerated packet multicasting are provided. According to one embodiment, a first multicast packet to be multicast to a first multicast destination is received by a virtual routing system. The multicast packet is caused to be transmitted to the multicast destination by: (i) directing the multicast packet to a first VR of multiple VRs instantiated within the virtual routing system by selecting the first VR from among the multiple VRs to multicast the multicast packet; (ii) configuring the virtual routing system to use a routing context associated with the selected VR in connection with processing of the multicast packet; (iii) reading at least a portion of the multicast packet from one of multiple multicast address spaces associated with the selected VR; and (iv) forwarding the multicast packet to the first multicast destination. Similar steps are then performed for a second multicast packet.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2016Date of Patent: February 5, 2019Assignee: Fortinet, Inc.Inventors: Joseph Cheng, Zahid Hussain, Tim Millet
