Abstract: Systems and methods for intrusion protected user interface and functionality for vehicles using embedded controller. An example system includes an embedded controller, the embedded controller configured to receive touch input information from the display, the touch input information reflecting interactions with the display by a person in the vehicle; and an infotainment system, the infotainment system being in communication with the embedded controller and configured to receive the touch input information from the embedded controller, wherein the infotainment system is configured to render a dynamic user interface for presentation via the display, wherein the embedded controller is configured to cause presentation of a static image reflecting a currently selected gear of the vehicle, and wherein the embedded controller provides information associated with the static image to a timing controller of the display.

Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring particulate matter includes a fluid flow passage. Some embodiments include a cartridge defining a part of the fluid flow passage extending from a cartridge inlet to a cartridge outlet and a particle size selector in the fluid-flow passage between the cartridge inlet and the cartridge outlet. The particle size selector comprises a curve section in the fluid flow passage where the flow of fluid undergoes a change in direction and an impact surface extending transversely to the fluid flow passage on an outside of the curve. A particle counter is located downstream from the particle size selector. A pump is connected to drive a flow of a fluid containing the particulate matter through the fluid flow passage. The apparatus may be made compact. Embodiments may be worn and used to monitor exposure of persons to particulate matter.
