  • Publication number: 20240101117
    Abstract: A number of illustrative variations may include a system including brake-to-steer algorithms may achieve lateral control of a vehicle without longitudinal compensation but may also force a vehicle to slow down too rapidly before appropriate lateral movement can be achieved and may deliver an unnatural driving experience for vehicle occupants. A more natural feeling deceleration may be achieved by optimally selecting appropriate transmission shifts to allow for optimal engine speed or electric motor speed and torque based on current vehicle speed thereby reducing undesirably longitudinal disturbance.

  • Patent number: 11940148
    Abstract: The present disclosure is related to a dual ring gas burner wherein the outer ring includes multipoint injection with bottom breathing and the inner ring works with top breathing. Two flame rings are included along with burner ports on the caps. As a result, better heating distribution is achieved along with greater ease in cleaning and combined simmer functions with high ratings by having the outer ring gas flow not interfering with the inner ring.

  • Patent number: 11929733
    Abstract: There are disclosed matrix filters having an antenna port, receive ports and transmit ports. A receive matrix filter is coupled between each receive port and the antenna port; an a transmit matrix filter is coupled between the antenna port and each transmit port. An impedance at the receive port is matched to an input impedance of a low noise amplifier (LNA), an impedance at the transmit port is match to an output impedance of a power amplifier (PA), and an impedance at the antenna port is match an impedance of an antenna.

  • Patent number: 11917408
    Abstract: A controller and method of controlling a mobile device. The controller is coupled to a mobile device through a mobile communications environment. The controller is coupled to the mobile communications environment at a location remote from the mobile device, and includes a receiver that receives data from the mobile device, a processor that evaluates the data received from the mobile device based upon rules for the mobile device, and a transmitter that sends data to the mobile device to at least one of alert the user to a condition and modify current operating parameters on the mobile device.

  • Patent number: 11743334
    Abstract: A system comprising one or more computers implements a synthetic sensor service configured to deploy synthetic sensors to in-vehicle computing devices implementing an in-vehicle distributed computing environment. A synthetic sensor may be placed monolithically at a single computing device (e.g. ECU) in the vehicle, or may be modularly placed on multiple computing devices (e.g. multiple ECUs) of the vehicle that each have resources or inputs that the synthetic sensor requires. The modular components of the synthetic sensor may execute in a runtime environment of the in-vehicle distributed computing environment, such that the modular components function as a unified synthetic sensor even though they are placed on different computing devices of the vehicle (e.g. different ECUs).

  • Publication number: 20230265951
    Abstract: A swiveling hose coupler assembly for inhibiting hoses from becoming kinked includes a first male fitting that is insertable into a female end of a first hose. The first male fitting is hollow to pass a fluid from the first hose outwardly through the male fitting. A second male fitting is rotatably coupled to the first male fitting such that each of the first male fitting and the second male fitting extends along a common axis, and the second male fitting is rotatable about the common axis. The second male fitting is insertable into a female end of a second hose to inhibit the first hose and the second hose from becoming kinked. The second male fitting is hollow to pass the fluid from the first male fitting into the second hose.

  • Patent number: 11675513
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, according to one embodiment, includes: storing records in an input data buffer, where each of the records include a key which is appended to payload data in the respective record. Moreover, for each of the records: shearing the key associated with the record from the payload data, normalizing the sheared key, and storing the normalized sheared key in a first target area of memory. A determination is made as to whether a size of the payload data in the record is outside a predetermine range, and in response to determining that the size of the payload data in the record is outside the predetermine range, the payload data is stored in a second target area of memory. A data locator is also appended to the normalized sheared key in the first target area of memory to form a sheared record.

  • Patent number: 11657159
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention include systems and methods for to detecting security vulnerabilities using modeled attribute propagation. A non-limited example of a computer-implemented method includes generating a model of a device under test, the model comprising a data path similar to the device under test and an attribute network. The method further includes detecting protected data that is introduced into the model and marking the protected data with an attribute. An end point of the marked protected data is detected along the data path. In response to the end point being indicative of a vulnerability, an alert is issued.
