  • Publication number: 20250044577
    Abstract: The present embodiments relate to a flex hinge actuator. The actuator can include a base and a moving carriage configured to move in a direction (e.g., Z direction). A flex hinge assembly can include structures disposed on multiple sides (e.g., 2-sides, 4-sides). The flex hinge assembly structures can limit movement of the moving carriage in other directions than the Z direction to limit adverse motions of the moving carriage. The actuators as described herein can include a simple structure to constrain pitch and yaw tilt during Z motion of a payload. The actuator can push on sides of structure to move a carriage up and down (or in the Z-direction).

  • Publication number: 20250022285
    Abstract: Processing burden of a computing system, in identifying driving risk for a driver of a motor vehicle, is reduced by using image data captured without having been triggered by adverse driving events. Risk assessment is preferably based upon analysis of the image data with respect to at least one of ambient traffic density, off-road hazard, on-road hazard, complexity of a roadway upon which the vehicle is being driven, behavior of a vehicle within sight range of a driver of the vehicle, and existence of pedestrians within sight range of the driver. The computing system preferably uses machine learning/artificial intelligence software to derive the risk assessment. The adverse driving events preferably not used to trigger capturing of the image data include of speeding, driver distraction, hard braking, swerving, collision, and near collision. The risk assessment can advantageously trigger delivery of a message to the driver.

  • Publication number: 20240344505
    Abstract: The present embodiments relate to a shape memory alloy (SMA) actuator with a reduced number of materials for manufacturing the actuator. In some instances, elements of the SMA actuator can comprise a dielectric material disposed on the actuator via an injection molding process. In other instances, the SMA actuator can dispose SMA wires above a base of the SMA actuator without the use of any dielectric material. In a first example, an SMA actuator can include a carriage and a base. The base can include a fixed end fixed to the carriage, a free end, a beam connecting the fixed end and the free end, and at least one SMA wire. The SMA actuator can also include an insulator comprising a dielectric material electrically isolating a set of electrical contacts at the fixed end.
