Publication number: 20250078520Abstract: A vehicle detection and collision alerting device and method is described. The vehicle detection device is used by a user to detect an approaching vehicle. The vehicle detection device may include a housing and a mount attached to the housing for securing the housing to the user or the users equipment. An optical sensor secured to the housing, facing generally outward. A processor is in communication with the optical sensor to receive data and execute an algorithm to analyze the received data. This algorithm is configured to determine the size and distance of the approaching vehicle and also calculate its velocity and trajectory. Alerting modules to alert the user and to alert the approaching vehicle are configured to receive signals from the processor when a potential collision is identified based on the data being processed.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 4, 2022Publication date: March 6, 2025Inventor: Joshua Fox

Patent number: 9886489Abstract: Text including at least a first term can be presented on a display. An enterprise glossary is queried to identify other terms that match the first term. Data assets to which each of the other terms are linked and which include data values for the other terms can be identified. A first score indicating a level of relevance of the respective data asset to an enterprise is assigned to each of the data assets. A frequency distribution of the data values in the data assets is determined. Based at least on the first scores indicating the level of relevance of the respective data assets to the enterprise and the frequency distribution of the data values in the data assets, second scores are assigned to each of the data values. A plurality the data values which are assigned highest of the second scores are presented on the display.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2015Date of Patent: February 6, 2018Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Michael Fankhauser, Joshua Fox, Benjamin Halberstadt, Roger K.
