Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes determining a vehicle configuration indicative of a towing mode setting for the vehicle, which can include a neutral transmission gear setting, a battery conservation mode, or another towing mode setting. The method can include determining at least one vehicle operation characteristic that changes with time while the vehicle is in the towing mode setting, and performing, via a vehicle control module and based at least in part on the towing mode setting and the vehicle operation characteristic, one or more vehicle actions that include generating an alert signal indicative that vehicle damage may be imminent.

Abstract: Methods and systems establishing a telehealth session between a patient and a healthcare provider (HP) are disclosed herein. One of the systems includes: a HP-side application residing a HP-side device; a patient-side application residing on a patient's device; and a telehealth application residing on a server. During a telehealth session, the HP-side application is configured to: generate one or more graphical user interfaces (GUIs) that display patient-related data on the display of the HP-side device; enable the healthcare provider to edit, using the one or more GUIs, one or more portions of the patient-related data; and send the one or more edited portions of the patient-related data to the telehealth application on the server for storage.

Abstract: Systems and methods including analyzing profiles, generating medical recommendations, prioritizing the medical recommendations, throttling the medical recommendations, and transmitting a prioritized set of medical recommendations to a device that displays the information are disclosed. The medical recommendations may be prioritized based on an importance of the recommendation to a patient, a medical severity, and/or prior interaction with the system. The medical recommendations may be throttled to determine a number of recommendations to display to a medical provider during a period of time, such as a patient examination.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods and systems for machine learning models utilized for identifying issues with medications and gaps in care. The present disclosure also describes methods and systems for machine learning models utilized to provide recommended actions for addressing the issues with medication and gaps in care. These methods and systems utilize machine learning models that are trained to identify issues with medications and gaps in care, as well as provide recommended actions for those medications issues and gaps in care. The models are trained with data from disparate sources that are aggregated and formatted to be utilized in these models.

Abstract: An automated teller machine includes a controller. The controller may be configured to transmit via inductive coupling a session key in response to receiving a signal from a nomadic device. The controller may then establish a connection with a vehicle infotainment system (VIS) using the session key and receive from the VIS, a PIN number and a request to dispense funds via the connection. After which, the controller may inhibit release of the funds until a confirmation is received via inductive coupling from the nomadic device.

Abstract: A location of a first wearable device is determined based on a first biometric signature. Operation of a touchscreen display is restricted if the location of the first wearable device is in an operator's side of a vehicle cabin and the first wearable device is within a first distance from the display.

Abstract: A plurality of transducers positioned at respective specified locations in a vehicle are actuated to generate a plurality of respective tones. A plurality of respective time differences are determined between times that each respective tone is generated by the respective transducer and the tone is detected by a portable device. A location of the portable device is determined based at least in part on the time differences.

Abstract: A method includes remotely starting an engine of a vehicle in response to a command, from a remote user of the vehicle, to start the engine for preconditioning the vehicle. The method assesses a charge level of a battery of the vehicle following engine start and adjusts engine-on time and vehicle settings to prioritize battery charge maintenance versus preconditioning based on the charge level. Another method for remotely starting the engine includes notifying, from the vehicle, the user that the battery has a charge level below a predetermined threshold. This method includes remotely starting the engine to charge the battery with energy from the engine upon receiving from the user a confirmation to start the engine.

Abstract: A first computer is configured to receive, from at least one second computer in a first vehicle, data relating to a gunshot. The computer is configured to then determine a location of the gunshot from the data, and to transmit a message, including the gunshot location, to at least one third computer in a second vehicle.

Abstract: Method and apparatus are disclosed for a wake alarm for vehicles with an autonomous mode. An example disclosed vehicle includes a sensor and a camera to monitor a state of a driver, and a transition manager. The example transition manager, at a first transition location, provides notification to the driver and restores vehicle interior settings from autonomous mode preferences to manual mode preferences. Additionally, the example transition manager, at a second transition location, when the state of the driver indicates that the driver is alert, transfers control of the vehicle to the driver.

An outer layer of the surface covering is disposed proximate one of the electrodes. The outer layer is operable to transmit at least a portion of the disinfecting emission therethrough.

Abstract: A vehicle controller may receive notification settings to apply when determining rain conditions. The controller may identify a rain condition sensor data, and send a rain alert to a mobile device to obtain confirmation to perform rain condition actions specified by the notification settings. The mobile device may receive, from the vehicle controller, the rain alert requesting confirmation to perform rain condition actions specified by the notification settings; and may send, responsive to user input to the mobile device, a confirmation to perform the rain condition actions.
