  • METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR GENERATING AND USING A ROAD FRICTION ESTIMATE BASED ON CAMERA IMAGE SIGNAL PROCESSING
    Publication number: 20190340445
    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating and utilizing a road friction estimate (RFE) indicating the expected friction level between a road surface and the tires of a vehicle based on forward looking camera image signal processing. A forward-looking camera image is pre-processed, patch segmented (both laterally and longitudinally, as defined by wheel tracks or the like), transformed into a bird's eye view (BEV) image using perspective transformation, patch quantized, and finally classified. The resulting RFE may be used to provide driver information, automatically control the associated vehicle's motion, and/or inform a cloud-based alert service to enhance driver safety.

  • Apparatus and method for distance-based option data object filtering and modification
    Patent number: 10219105
    Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer program product are provided to filter and modify option data objects and weighted values associated with option data objects through the application of specific rule sets based on the relative density of option data objects within a particularized area. In some example implementations, option data objects and related parameters are parsed to identify locations associated with the option data object and a weighted value, such as a weighted value generated by a predictive model. Based at least in part on the location associated with the option data object, a determined location of a user of a mobile device, and location-specific distance criteria, the weighted value associated with the option data object may be modified to reflect distance-related option election probabilities.

  • CATALYTIC COMPOSITE AND IMPROVED PROCESS FOR DEHYDROGENATION OF HYDROCARBONS
    Publication number: 20180029015
    Abstract: A catalytic composite for a cyclic process of adiabatic, non-oxidative dehydrogenation of an alkane into an olefin, comprising a dehydrogenation catalyst, a semimetal and a carrier supporting the catalyst and the semimetal. During the reduction and/or regeneration stages of the adiabatic process, the semimetal releases heat which can be used to initiate the dehydrogenation reactions, which are endothermic in nature, thereby reducing the need for hot air flow and combustion of coke as heat input. The semi-metal is inert towards the dehydrogenation reaction itself, alkane feed and olefin product as well as other side reactions of the cyclic process such as cracking and decoking.
