Abstract: Segmented wrapping materials and related methods. In some embodiments, a plurality of individual segments of a film or other wrapping material may be placed on a single roll or core and each opposing edge of each segment of such roll/core may be folded or otherwise reinforced to improve the strength of the film and thereby improve containment of a pallet or other items being wrapped with the material.

Abstract: Processes and devices by which a brittle material substrate may be edge formed and finished to simultaneously remove corresponding damage remaining on the edges in the areas formed by cutting and separation while imposing a desired edge profile and achieving a desired mechanical edge strength. Processes of the present disclosure may include a chemical and mechanical brush polishing process configured to shape and/or polish a surface of one or more thin substrates. A plurality of substrates may be arranged in a stacked configuration, and engineered interposer devices may be arranged between the stacked substrates. The interposers may provide between the substrates and may direct filament placement during brushing so as to guide material removal on the substrate edges. Substrate edge profile shapes, including symmetric and asymmetric profiles, may be formed by strategic manipulation of interposer properties including dimensions, mechanical features, material properties, and positioning.

Abstract: A wheel assembly includes a wheel defining a first axis; a first electric motor including a first stator and a first rotor rotatable relative to the first stator about the first axis, the wheel fixed relative to the first rotor; a second electric motor including a second stator and a second rotor rotatable relative to the second stator about a second axis, the first stator fixed relative to the second rotor; and a third electric motor including a third stator and a third rotor rotatable relative to the third stator about a third axis, the second stator coupled to and movable with the third rotor. The first axis, the second axis, and the third axis are mutually transverse.

Abstract: A display assembly for an automotive interior comprises a dynamically bendable cover panel having first and second panel portions a flexible panel portion connecting the first and second panel portions, a display positioned adjacent the first and second panel portions, and a frame that supports the cover panel and comprises a first frame portion for supporting the first panel portion, a second frame portion for supporting the second panel portion, and a hinge portion coupling the first frame portion and the second frame portion, the hinge portion configured to induce a curvature having smoothly connected arc segments in the flexible panel portion between the first panel portion and the second panel portion when the second frame portion is articulated relative to the first frame portion from a straight position to a deployed position.

Abstract: A vehicle interior system having a first frame having a first end and a second end and a second frame having a third end and a fourth end. The third end of the second frame is arranged proximal to the second end of the first frame, and the first frame and the second frame define a bending axis between the second end and the third end. A continuous cover material is bonded to the first and second frame and across the bending axis. The vehicle interior system also includes a first display device positioned in a first aperture of the first frame. The system has a first configuration in which the first frame is planar with the second frame and a second configuration in which the first frame is not planar with the second frame. The system is configured to reversibly transition between the first and second configurations.

Abstract: A system for processing voice responses is disclosed. The system is configured to store a correlation table identifying relationships between self-service routines, tags, and corresponding actions. The system receives a call from a user and issues a query in response to the call. The system receives an utterance from the user in response to the user and determines whether the utterance matches a pre-defined response. If there is no match, the system analyzes the utterance with a pre-defined statistical language model and identifies a service tag for the utterance. The system then associates the utterance with the service tag and a self-service routine that is associated with the call. The system identifies an action from the correlation table that correlates to the service tag and the self-service routine.

Abstract: A calf creep feeder includes a panel fence positioned at each side of a feed enclosure. Each of the panel fences are selectively movable between a lower creep feeder position to an upper stowed position. A pair of torsion springs are secured to each of the panel fences to assist in raising the panel fences from their lower creep feeder positions to its upper stowed position.

Abstract: A method comprises: directing a laser beam onto a side of a tube, wherein the side includes a defect; moving the tube with respect to the laser beam such that the laser beam beams onto the defect; sensing a reflection of the laser beam from the side based on the defect; computationally identifying a change between the laser beam and the reflection; computationally acting based on the change. The side can be internal or external. In other implementations, the laser beam is moved with respect to the tube such that the laser beam beams onto the defect.
