Patents by Inventor Michael Alan DITTY

Michael Alan DITTY has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12189558
    Abstract: In various examples, methods may include receiving first data transmitted from a second component and second data transmitted from the second component during a first time period. The first data may be transmitted via a first data lane and the second data may be transmitted via a second data lane. The method may include receiving de-skew symbols at an interval from the second component via the first data lane and via the second data lane during the first time period. The method may include compensating for a first skew introduced to a first propagation of the first data across the first data lane and a second skew introduced to a second propagation of the second data across the second data lane using the de-skew symbols received during the first time period.

  • Publication number: 20240045426
    Abstract: Autonomous driving is one of the world's most challenging computational problems. Very large amounts of data from cameras, RADARs, LIDARs, and HD-Maps must be processed to generate commands to control the car safely and comfortably in real-time. This challenging task requires a dedicated supercomputer that is energy-efficient and low-power, complex high-performance software, and breakthroughs in deep learning AI algorithms. To meet this task, the present technology provides advanced systems and methods that facilitate autonomous driving functionality, including a platform for autonomous driving Levels 3, 4, and/or 5. In preferred embodiments, the technology provides an end-to-end platform with a flexible architecture, including an architecture for autonomous vehicles that leverages computer vision and known ADAS techniques, providing diversity and redundancy, and meeting functional safety standards.
