Abstract: The present document describes systems and methods for on-device person recognition and provision of intelligent alerts. The system includes a decentralized multi-camera system for on-device facial recognition. A device (e.g., security camera, video doorbell) captures images/video of a person, processes input image frames, detects face images, filters static faces, and aligns a rotation of the face to be upright and frontal. The device then filters low-quality face images and/or images having a large portion of the face occluded. The device computes a face embedding, compares it against a set of locally stored reference embeddings, and sends matching results to cloud services, which, based on the matching result, notifies the device owner whether the observed person is a known person or a stranger. Face detection and recognition computations are performed on device, not at the cloud. No sensitive information is transmitted off device and privacy is thus preserved.

Abstract: An electric drive control system for a machine is provided. The electric drive control system includes a sensor and a drivetrain control module operatively coupled to the sensor. The sensor is configured to determine one or more operational parameters associated with the machine. The drivetrain control module is further operatively coupled to a power source controller associated with a power source and a generator controller associated with a generator. The drivetrain control module is configured to determine a desired operating mode of the machine and selectively regulate one or parameters associated with the power source based on a predefined dataset corresponding to the desired operating mode of the machine. The drivetrain control module is further configured to selectively adjust an amount of power produced by the generator based on the predefined dataset corresponding to the desired operating mode of the machine.

Abstract: A variable valve timing arrangement for an engine system is disclosed. The variable valve timing arrangement includes a cam follower configured to follow a cam lobe. A pushrod is operably connected with the cam follower and a pushrod rotation mechanism is configured to selectively rotate the pushrod. Further, a cam follower adjustment mechanism is configured to reposition the cam follower based on the rotation of the pushrod.
