Abstract: A vehicle includes a window separating a compartment of the vehicle from a region external to the vehicle. The window includes an outer surface. An imaging device is in the compartment and configured to capture an image of the region external to the vehicle through the window. Control circuitry is in communication with the imaging device and configured to receive the image from the imaging device, detect an obstruction in the image data corresponding to a substance on the window, and generate an output in response to the detection of the obstruction, wherein the imaging device is disposed within 50 millimeters (mm) from the window.

Abstract: A vehicle includes at least one imaging device that captures an image of a plurality of roadway lanes in a region external to the vehicle. The vehicle includes control circuitry in communication with the at least one imaging device. The control circuitry is configured to receive the image from the imaging device, detect a splash event in the region external based on the image, determine a target lane of the plurality of lanes for the vehicle to move based on the splash event, and generate an output indicating the target lane.

Abstract: An apparatus has a network interface circuit to provide connectivity to a network. A processor is connected to the network interface circuit. A memory is connected to the processor. The memory stores instructions executed by the processor to receive a registration request from an identification issuer machine. A distributed identification (DID) is assigned to an identification issuer machine. The DID is registered at an identification registry machine. An identification request is received from an identification holder machine. Verified identification evidence is collected from identification validation machines. A verified identification credential with an associated Digital Identity Attribute Level (DIAL) is issued to a holder wallet associated with a user of the identification holder machine.

A verified identification credential is issued to a holder wallet associated with a user of the identification holder machine. The verified identification credential in the holder wallet is accessible only with permission from the user of the identification holder machine, which is selectively granted to different machines over time to establish a reusable digital identity.

Abstract: A token management system for an entertainment venue includes a processing system with one or more processors and memory storing instructions executable by the processing system. The instructions are executable by the processing system to cause the processing system to identify a digital token possessed by a user, to access one or more permissions stored in association with the digital token, and to determine information about the user. Additionally, the instructions are executable by the processing system to cause the processing system to enable one or more actions for the digital token in response to determining that the information complies with the one or more permissions stored in association with the digital token.

Abstract: A system may include a housing that may hold a body of water, an inflatable assembly disposed within the body of water, and a processor. The processor may receive an indication related to a speed of a flow of the body of water and send a signal to at least one valve coupled between the inflatable assembly and a fluid source in response to the indication. The signal may cause the at least one valve to fluidly couple the inflatable assembly to the fluid source to cause the inflatable assembly to expand to an inflated configuration.
