Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for vehicle charging. A charging system can include a component to convey power to a vehicle to charge the vehicle. The charging system can include a module to store a certificate via a cryptographic technique. The charging system can include a data processing system coupled to the module, the data processing system including one or more processors, coupled with memory, to retrieve the certificate from the module, transmit, to a second data processing system, a request to establish a communication connection, the request including the certificate, and establish the communication connection with the second data processing system responsive to a verification of the certificate by the second data processing system. The data processing system can transmit, to the second data processing system, data corresponding to power conveyed by the component to the vehicle subsequent to verification of the certificate.

Abstract: A network jack has a connector, a housing and a plurality of magnetic circuit elements. The connector has a first end, a second end, and at least four walls. The four walls extend from the first end to the second end in a first direction and are disposed about a bar. The bar has conductive contacts thereon and is spaced apart from the four walls. The housing has sides extending in the first direction from a top edge to a bottom panel. The housing includes an interior defined between the top edge and the bottom panel, the top edge operably coupled adjacent the second end of the connector. The plurality of leads extend from the bottom panel. The magnetic circuit elements are disposed in the interior of the housing and operably coupled to the plurality of leads and at least a first of the conductive contacts on the bar.

Abstract: Systems, devices and methodologies for generating a vehicle identification hash value and verifying the integrity of the vehicle. The vehicle identification hash value is generated based on hashes provided by each vehicle component. The generated overall vehicle identification hash value may be dynamic and reflects changes that occur to the vehicle at the component level.

Abstract: Technologies and techniques for determining locations of a plurality of markers on a vehicle in three-dimensional space. The markers may be configured as optical or radio markers, where a sensor determines the locations of each of the plurality of markers, or a shape formed by the markers collectively. The locations of each of the plurality of markers or shape is then compared to a template to determine a match. The match identifies a vehicle having vehicle data that includes locations of vehicle components and/or vehicle performance characteristics. The vehicle data is then used to generate control signals for controlling a control device that may be associated with a robotic apparatus, a vehicle computer system and/or drone operating system.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method is provided. The method includes storing a set of training data. One or more machine learning models are trained based on the set of training data. The method also includes receiving, from a computing device, a request to access the set of training data. The method further includes determining whether the computing device is allowed to access the set of training data. In response to determining that the computing device is allowed to access the set of training data, the method includes transmitting a training token to the computing device. The training token grants a training environment with access to the set of training data for a period of time.
