Publication number: 20190147736Abstract: An approach is provided for publishing a road event message according to a hysteresis. For example, the approach involves processing a road report to determine a road event associated with a geographic location and a confidence metric of the road event. The approach also involves initiating a publishing of a road event message to indicate the road event for the geographic location based on determining that the confidence metric is greater than an upper threshold of a hysteresis. The approach further involves processing one or more other road reports to update the confidence metric of the road event. The approach further involves initiating a cancelling of the road event message based on determining that the updated confidence metric is less than a lower threshold of the hysteresis.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2017Publication date: May 16, 2019Inventors: Robert CAMP, Leon STENNETH

Publication number: 20190049256Abstract: An approach is provided for detecting false positive slippery road reports. For example, the approach involves receiving a slippery road report from a vehicle. The slippery road report, for instance, indicates that a slippery road event is detected at a location based on sensor information collected by the vehicle. The approach also involves map matching the location of the slippery road report to the mapping data to evaluate a proximity of the location to at least one geographic feature that is designated as an area where driver behavior is expected to be at least one cause of the slippery road event. The approach further involves classifying the slippery road report as the slippery road false positive report based on the evaluation.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 11, 2017Publication date: February 14, 2019Inventors: Robert CAMP, Leon STENNETH, Alex AVERBUCH

Publication number: 20170137304Abstract: A portable water conditioning system is provided that includes a water conditioner, a first sensor, a second sensor, and a controller. The water conditioner has a plurality of conditioning stages that condition water. The plurality of conditioning stages include, in a direction of flow of the water through the water conditioner, a reverse osmosis stage and a deionizing stage. The first sensor detects a first condition of the water before the reverse osmosis stage. The second sensor detects a second condition of the water after the reverse osmosis stage. The controller is in communication with the first and second sensors and determines a health status of the reverse osmosis stage based the first and second conditions. The first and second conditions each include a level of total dissolved solids of the water.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 14, 2016Publication date: May 18, 2017Applicant: Unger Marketing International, LLCInventors: Paul H.

Publication number: 20150242868Abstract: An approach is provided for determining at least one distribution of a plurality of current values for at least one dynamic content parameter associated with a plurality of points of interest within a predetermined proximity to at least one target point of interest. The approach involves determining at least one distribution mean and at least one distribution standard deviation for the at least one distribution of the plurality of current values. The approach also involves determining at least one set of historical values for the at least one dynamic content parameter for the at least one target point of interest. The approach further involves determining at least one estimated current value for the at least one dynamic content parameter associated with the at least one target point of interest based, at least in part, on the at least one set of historical values, the at least one distribution mean, and the at least one distribution standard deviation.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2014Publication date: August 27, 2015Applicant: HERE GLOBAL B.V.Inventors: Timur PERELMUTOV, Robert CAMP, Toby TENNENT, Gavril GIURGIU, Mark PUNDURS, Justin SPELBRINK, Leon STENNETH, Dereje BEFECADU

Publication number: 20150152665Abstract: A latch which for example may secure a closure to an associated receptacle. The latch may comprise a collar which entraps the enlarged head of a large headed object. The collar may have a series of passages formed therein, each of which receives a spherical object such as a ball bearing. The latch may comprise a pushbutton having an annular body bearing a first portion which prevents the ball bearings from moving, and a second portion which gives each ball bearing space to occupy. The ball bearings normally interfere with the enlarged head and entrap the same within the collar. When the pushbutton is depressed, the second portion allows the ball bearings to move out of the interference position, thereby enabling the enlarged head to escape from the collar. Motion of the pushbutton also provides actuating force for moving the ball bearings.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2015Publication date: June 4, 2015Inventor: Robert Camp

Patent number: 8264095Abstract: A machine which capitalizes on the descent of water which has been elevated by making use of the random use of waves and or the velocity of the waters. A device which determines the true surface level in spite of random motions of the waters such as waves, surges and etc. by establishing the theory that water seeks its own level. A device which capitalizes on the velocity and weight of water, such as is present in waves and river waters, wherein the current has sufficient velocity to depress a ramp and produce useful energy.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2009Date of Patent: September 11, 2012Inventor: William Robert Camp
