  • Patent number: 11875010
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for managing collaboration on a virtual work of art between multiple electronic devices are provided. A first graphical display system of a first device may generate an input command in response to receiving user information through a user interface of the first device, and may then share this input command with a second graphical display system of a second device. The first graphical display system may process the shared input command to generate pixel array data in a canvas of the first device while the second graphical display system may process the shared input command to generate pixel array data in a canvas of the second device. By sharing input commands rather than pixel array data, system latency may be reduced. Despite operating on the same artwork, the user interfaces and graphical processing capabilities of each device may vary, thereby providing the user greater expressiveness.

  • Patent number: 11813977
    Abstract: A safety system for a motor vehicle equipped with a power take-off (PTO) drive assembly includes an electrical circuit coupled to a hazard warning system of the motor vehicle. The hazard warning system includes at least one flasher lamp electrically powered by a battery of the motor vehicle and a control switch for activating and deactivating the at least one flasher lamp. The electrical circuit includes an electrical relay coupled to the actuating or control element in which the electrical relay is triggered only when the flasher lamp(s) are energized. In one version, the control or actuating element is an air solenoid operatively coupled to the electrical relay and further disposed relative to an air line between the cab control and an air shifter of the PTO drive assembly.

  • Patent number: 11761370
    Abstract: A vehicle radiator air intake screen maintenance system comprising a radiator fan, a fan motor; and a processor operable to control the rotational speed and direction of the radiator fan to: periodically implement a drop cycle whereby a radiator cooling air flow generated by the fan rotating in a forward direction is slowed such debris collected on a radiator air intake screen of the vehicle is caused to fall off due to gravitational force; and periodically implement a full reverse cycle where a rotational direction of the fan is reversed and an expulsion air flow is generated whereby debris collected on vehicle radiator and the air intake screen will be blown off, whereafter reverse rotation of the fan is stopped and the fan is returned to the full forward operating speed and direction.

  • Publication number: 20230288925
    Abstract: An authorization system includes a controller of an external computing device communicatively connected to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The controller obtains a mission kit that includes software for controlling a piece of equipment configured to be assembled on the UAV. The controller receives a license that is associated with a user and determines, based on the license, whether the piece of equipment is authorized for operation on the UAV as controlled by the user. Responsive to determining that the piece of equipment is authorized, the controller initiates transmission of at least some of the software of the mission kit to the UAV for installation by the UAV to allow the user to operate the piece of equipment.

  • Patent number: 11755281
    Abstract: A stem cap audio system enables detachable attachment of a speaker assembly to the stem cap of a bicycle. A speaker base is configured to detachably couple to the stem cap. The speaker is coupled to the base and may be configured for easy one-hand operation, wherein functions of the speaker are initiated by simply pushing down on the speaker housing. The speaker housing is configured to actuate or depress down into the speaker base and a speaker control interface is actuated by contact with a portion of the base. An elastomeric interface is configured between the speaker and base to rebound the speaker after actuation to change a function of the speaker operation. This easy one hand operation can be operated while riding and with a gloved hand.

  • Publication number: 20230278214
    Abstract: A method of localizing a robot includes receiving odometry information plotting locations of the robot and sensor data of the environment about the robot. The method also includes obtaining a series of odometry information members, each including a respective odometry measurement at a respective time. The method also includes obtaining a series of sensor data members, each including a respective sensor measurement at the respective time. The method also includes, for each sensor data member of the series of sensor data members, (i) determining a localization of the robot at the respective time based on the respective sensor data, and (ii) determining an offset of the localization relative to the odometry measurement at the respective time. The method also includes determining whether a variance of the offsets determined for the localizations exceeds a threshold variance. When the variance among the offsets exceeds the threshold variance, a signal is generated.
