Abstract: Virtual bumpers for autonomous vehicles improve effectiveness and safety as such vehicles are operated. One or more sensor systems having a Lidar sensor and a camera sensor determine proximity of objects around the vehicle and facilitate identification of the environment around the vehicle. The sensor systems are placed at various locations around the vehicle. The vehicle identifies an object and one or more properties of the identified object using the sensor systems. Based on the identified object and the properties of the object, a virtual bumper may be created for that object. For example, if the object is identified as another vehicle moving with a certain velocity, the vehicle may determine a minimum space to avoid the other vehicle, either by changing direction or reducing the velocity of the vehicle, with the minimum space constituting a virtual bumper.

Abstract: A method used in forming a memory array comprises forming digitlines above and electrically couple to memory cells there-below. The digitlines are laterally-spaced relative one another in a vertical cross-section. An upwardly-open void-space is laterally-between immediately-adjacent of the digitlines in the vertical cross-section.

The masking material is removed from being directly above tops of the digitlines to expose the conductive digitline material and to leave the masking material over sidewalls of the conductive digitline material in the upwardly-open void-spaces. Insulative material is selectively grown from the exposed conductive digitline material relative to the masking material across the upwardly-open void-spaces to form covered void-spaces there-from between the immediately-adjacent digitlines in the vertical cross-section.
