Abstract: A vehicle that has electronic systems including an autonomous vehicle stack includes a dual output power system for powering the electronic systems of the vehicle. The power system includes a battery at a first voltage level for storing energy at the first voltage level, a dual output belt-driven starter generator that is started by a starter receiving power from the battery at the first voltage level and that provides dual outputs at a second voltage level for providing power to the electronics systems, at least one DC-DC converter that converts the dual outputs at the second voltage level to dual outputs at the first voltage level, and first and second power distributors that distribute power from the battery and DC-DC converter(s) to the electronic systems. The power systems may be configured to power safety critical components from respective power distributors and DC-DC converters at the respective voltage levels.

Abstract: A fabric treating system comprises an enclosure comprising a first wall, a second wall, and a fabric receiving space defined by the enclosure. The fabric treating system also comprises a support member positioned proximate to the first wall. The support member is configured to support one of a hanger configured to support a piece of fabric and the piece of fabric within the fabric receiving space. The fabric treating system also comprises a fabric tensioning system positioned at least on the second wall. The fabric tensioning system comprises at least a first fabric grasper configured to be attached to at least a first portion of the piece of fabric to apply tension to the piece of fabric.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable mediums for utilizing a platform controller device are disclosed. According to one method, the method includes obtaining, by a platform controller device in a computing system cabinet, identification data for each of a plurality of computing system components included in the computing system cabinet. The method further includes acquiring, upon the insertion of a removable memory device into the platform controller device, system configuration profile data that is stored on the removable memory device and includes component configuration data corresponding to each of the plurality of computing system components. The method also includes utilizing the identification data and the component configuration data to configure each of the computing system components in accordance to the system configuration profile data.

Abstract: An animal fitness garment includes a body panel and a pair of shoulder panels extending therefrom at an angle. The panels are configured to be secured to the animal using suitable fasteners, to prevent the fitness garment from moving relative to the animal as it exercises. The body panel includes one or more pairs of pockets that are positioned on either side of a central section of the body panel. As such, when the fitness garment is attached to the animal, the central section is positioned to be substantially parallel with the spine of the animal. This results in the weighted pockets being positioned on either side of the animal's spine, and not directly thereon, which reduces the physical impact to the animal when the fitness garment is worn.

Abstract: An apparatus and process for dispensing a measured quantity of liquid from a container. The apparatus includes a pour chamber having a dam, a spout, a vent, and a timer that is independent of flow in the pour chamber.

Abstract: Various examples are directed to systems and methods for controlling a vehicle. Power may be provided to a cut-off valve in fluid communication between an automated control (AC) valve and a shuttle valve. The cut-off valve may be configured to open in response to the power, causing fluid communication between the AC valve and the shuttle valve. A vehicle autonomy system may modulate the AC valve to control a level of pressurized air provided from a pressurized air reservoir to a foundation brake via the AC valve and the shuttle valve. In response to an automated disengage signal, the cut-off valve may close to prevent pressurized air from reaching the shuttle valve via the AC valve and permit pressurized air to reach the shuttle valve via a pedal valve.

Abstract: An insect trapping cartridge is provided. The cartridge has a proximal end receivable into a base of an insect trapping device. The proximal end has a substantially planar, longitudinally extending tab that activates a switch in the base. The tab of the cartridge is laterally offset from a centerline of the cartridge.

Abstract: An insect trapping device having a base and a cartridge is provided. The cartridge has a shell and an insert. The insert is releaseably retained within the shell and has an adhesive portion for trapping insects. Gravitational force can pull the insert from the shell when the cartridge is removed from the base and the shell is squeezed by a user. The insect trapping device can have insect attractants, such as a light source and a heating element.

Abstract: A replaceable insert for an insect trapping device is provided. The insert is releaseably retained within the shell and has an adhesive portion for trapping insects. The insert has a substantially planar, longitudinally extending tab. The tab of the cartridge is laterally offset from a centerline of the insert.

Abstract: An insect trapping device having a base and a cartridge is provided. The cartridge has an adhesive portion that is positioned adjacent a shroud when the cartridge is attached to the base. The shroud has an electric heating element which heats the shroud and the adhesive portion. The heated adhesive portion mimics biological tissue to function as an insect attractant. The insect trapping device can have additional insect attractants as well, such as a lighting source.

Abstract: A processor including a virtualization system of the processor with a memory virtualization support system to map a reference to guest-physical memory made by guest software executable on a virtual machine which in turn is executable on a host machine in which the processor is operable to a reference to host-physical memory of the host machine.
