Abstract: Systems and methods for servicing vehicle messages utilizing a common communications infrastructure are provided. A method includes obtaining, by a vehicle computing system onboard an autonomous vehicle, a message including a cryptographic signature and contextual information, a request, or a command. The method includes determining an originating sender associated with the message based on the cryptographic signature and determining a message privilege for the message based on the originating sender. The originating sender is a process that generated the message. The method includes determining a response for the contextual information, the request, or the command based on the message privilege. The response is indicative of an acceptance or rejection of contextual information, an assignment of computing resources to a request, or an acceptance or rejection of a command. The method includes performing a vehicle action based on the response.

Abstract: A lead-based alloy containing alloying additions of bismuth, antimony, arsenic, and tin is used for the production of doped leady oxides, lead-acid battery active materials, lead-acid battery electrodes, and lead-acid batteries.

Abstract: A device includes a mirror coupled via a pair of flexible beams supported by a block of semiconductor material that has a cavity about the mirror and beams to allow the mirror to rotate about an axis along the beams. A piezoresistive sensor is coupled to one of the beams to provide information representative of an angle of rotation of the mirror. A light blocking shield covers exposed portions of the block of semiconductor material about the mirror.
