  • Patent number: 11964663
    Abstract: Determining an instantaneous vehicle characteristic (e.g., at least one yaw rate) of an additional vehicle that is in addition to a vehicle being autonomously controlled, and adapting autonomous control of the vehicle based on the determined instantaneous vehicle characteristic of the additional vehicle. For example, autonomous steering, acceleration, and/or deceleration of the vehicle can be adapted based on a determined instantaneous vehicle characteristic of the additional vehicle. In many implementations, the instantaneous vehicle characteristics of the additional vehicle are determined based on data from a phase coherent Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) component of the vehicle, such as a phase coherent LIDAR monopulse component and/or a frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) LIDAR component.

  • Publication number: 20240119478
    Abstract: Various examples are directed to computer-implemented systems and methods for providing a unique market offer code and validation. A method includes generating an offer customized for an intended recipient, and sending the offer electronically to the intended recipient. The method further includes receiving a user selection of the offer, and displaying a landing web page on a graphical user interface (GUI) of a user device. A user selection of an action button on the landing web page is received, and a validation web page is displayed on the GUI, the validation web page including prompts for input of user information. The user information is evaluated to determine authenticity of the offer and to confirm identity of the user as the intended recipient. Upon determining that the user is not approved for the offer, access is provided to the user to an additional offer tailored to the user.

  • Patent number: 11933902
    Abstract: Determining classification(s) for object(s) in an environment of autonomous vehicle, and controlling the vehicle based on the determined classification(s). For example, autonomous steering, acceleration, and/or deceleration of the vehicle can be controlled based on determined pose(s) and/or classification(s) for objects in the environment. The control can be based on the pose(s) and/or classification(s) directly, and/or based on movement parameter(s), for the object(s), determined based on the pose(s) and/or classification(s). In many implementations, pose(s) and/or classification(s) of environmental object(s) are determined based on data from a phase coherent Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) component of the vehicle, such as a phase coherent LIDAR monopulse component and/or a frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) LIDAR component.

  • Publication number: 20240074862
    Abstract: A delivery system includes an elongated shaft component, a self-expanding valve prosthesis, at least one cinching suture, and a radially-expandable sleeve. The valve prosthesis is disposed over a distal portion of the elongated shaft component and includes a compressed configuration for delivery and an expanded configuration for deployment. The at least one cinching suture removably couples the valve prosthesis to the elongated shaft component and radially compresses the valve prosthesis into the compressed configuration for delivery. The sleeve is secured to and encircles an outer surface of the valve prosthesis. The sleeve has a delivery state with a first diameter extending over a full length of the valve prosthesis in the compressed configuration and a deployed state with a greater second diameter extending over the full length of the valve prosthesis in the expanded configuration. The sleeve is configured to prevent paravalvular leakage in situ in the deployed state.

  • Publication number: 20240031433
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for synchronizing the simultaneous presentation of multimedia content across multiple devices. An example embodiment operates by generating a multimedia content synchronization request configured to instruct a second media device to synchronize a presentation of multimedia content on the second media device with a first media device. The multimedia content synchronization request can include, for example, a deep link indicative of a channel of the multimedia content, a position of the multimedia content, and a state of the multimedia content to start the presentation of the multimedia content. Subsequently, the example embodiment operates by transmitting the multimedia content synchronization request to the second media device.

  • Patent number: 11847179
    Abstract: A method is provided. The method includes one or more of obtaining client device data including a plurality of facts from a client device, limiting the client device data according to selection criteria, comparing, using a neural network, the limited client device data to categorized historical data, determining, using the neural network, one or more closest matches between the limited client device data and the categorized historical data, and selecting, on the client device, content of interest from the one or more closest matches. Each fact includes an entity, an observation, and an object. Limiting the client device data includes reviewing the entity, observation, and object for each fact and one or more of eliminating facts having an entity, observation, or object that does not meet the selection criteria and removing data from entities, observations, or objects that uniquely identifies a user associated with the client device.
