Abstract: Systems and methods for enhanced vision processing and sensor system for autonomous vehicle. An example method includes obtaining a plurality of raw images of a real-world scene associated with different integration times for individual pixels, determining a lux estimate for the real-world scene, selecting an analog gain to be applied to the plurality of raw images, applying the analog gain to the plurality of raw images, selecting an integration time for individual pixels of the plurality of raw images, selecting a digital gain to be applied to the plurality of raw images, applying the digital gain to the plurality of raw images, forming an output image based on a combination of the plurality of raw images, wherein each pixel of the output image is based on a corresponding pixel of an individual raw image.

Abstract: An inflatable apparatus for striking and propelling an object when affixed to a limb of a body preferably includes first and second oppositely facing walls, the first wall defining a striking surface for striking and propelling the object therefrom; and one or more sidewalls extending between and connecting the first and second oppositely facing walls, wherein the one or more sidewalls define an opening configured to permit passage of the limb from an exterior of the apparatus into an interstitial space of the apparatus for affixing the apparatus on the limb. The inflatable apparatus further includes one or more fluid-impermeable, expandable chambers in fluid communication with one or more ports whereby fluid introduced through the one or more ports enters into the one or more chambers for expanding the one or more chambers and tensioning the first wall defining the striking surface. A paddle-type game preferably uses such inflatable apparatus.

Abstract: A method of forming a reclosable fastener track having a slider. The process provides a reclosable fastener track, forms a slit in the fastener track, attaches a slider to the fastener track, seals the slit in the fastener track after the slider attaches, and creates a first and a second end stop on the track.

Abstract: A harness fits the head of an animal carcass for dragging the carcass with a tether line. The harness has an elongated connector coupled to a longitudinal adjustment strap, and a length of flexible strap coupled in a figure eight with a sliding connection at its central crossing, thereby forming first and second loops. A ring or other pull fitting for the tether line is attached to an end of the connector member adjacent to a sliding connection with the flexible strap at the front, and the longitudinal adjustment strap is coupled between the connector member and a sliding connection with the flexible strap at the rear. The first loop fits around the snout of a carcass such as a deer. The second loop includes a length adjustment between opposite ends of the flexible strap, which adjusts the circumference of both loops due to the sliding connection at the central crossing. The second loop is fitted around neck of the carcass and optionally also the front legs.
