Abstract: An exemplary mobile apparatus for assessing an operating condition of an asset. The mobile device includes at least one sensor device for acquiring data related to one or more operational or environmental characteristics of an asset during operation. The mobile device further includes a processing device encoded with a neural network architecture having one or more models trained to identify one or more operating conditions of one or more assets according to asset type. The processing device can determine an operating condition of the asset by extracting features from the acquired data and comparing attributes of the extracted features to attributes of at least one known operating condition determined through training of the models. The mobile device can also include an output interface to output a result of the determination performed by the processing device, which can include communicating the result to a remote device.

Abstract: Techniques are provided to calculate a “complexity score” (CS) and qualifying allocation score, which aims to address the gap between a performance score, which may represent a driver score of other suitable entity-based performance score. The CS may be calculated based upon the particular agent (e.g. a vehicle, an autonomous mobile robot (AMR), etc.), such as via the use of vehicle-based alerts, other types of alerts, environment-based data, etc., which are collected for specific navigation segments. The CS is then combined with the performance score to provide a qualifying allocation score, which is a context-sensitive view of the performance score. This context-sensitive view of the performance score may then be utilized for a determination regarding how to allocate the most well-suited entity (a driver, vehicle, AMR, etc.) to a subsequent route that includes the navigation segments.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a computer system chassis comprises a chassis side having an antenna portion and a fan portion. The antenna portion is located closer to an antenna located on an external surface of the chassis side than the fan portion. The antenna and fan portions comprise ventilation holes that provide for the venting of heated air from the chassis interior to the surrounding environment. In some embodiments, the ventilation holes in the antenna portion are thicker than the ventilation holes in the fan portion. The thicker ventilation holes provide an adequate level of EMI shielding for the antenna from platform noise generated by components (CPUs, GPUs, memories, etc.) located in the chassis interior. In other embodiments, the antenna portion comprises alternating positive and negative cross pattern ventilation holes and provides an adequate level of EMI shielding with the antenna portion ventilation holes having the same thickness as the fan portion ventilation holes.

Abstract: An apparatus, including: an interface configured to receive raw images of one or more objects across a timeseries of frames corresponding to a movement event from a perspective of a vehicle of interest (Vol); and processing circuitry that is configured to: track a change in intensity or direction information represented in motion vectors (MVs) generated based on the raw images; generate, based on the change in the intensity or direction information, a weight of an influence vector representing a Vol influence on the movement event; and transmit the weight of the influence vector and an identity of the movement event to an assessment system that is configured to utilize the weight of the influence vector in an assessment of the Vol.

Abstract: A vehicle navigation device may include a processor. The processor may receive an illumination map that includes route segments corresponding to an area. The illumination map may include a probability of solar radiation value for each of the route segments. The processor may receive a request to generate a navigation route from a start point to an end point within the area. The processor may determine navigable routes from the start point to the end point using the route segments. The processor may determine an overall probability of solar radiation value for each of the navigable routes based on the probability of solar radiation value for each route segment. The processor may identify a navigable route considering the overall probability of solar radiation values as an illumination route. The processor may generate an instruction to a display device to display the illumination route as a navigable route for the vehicle.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to improve driver-assistance vision systems using object detection based on motion vectors are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a motion vector object detection analyzer to generate a motion vector boundary box around an object represented in a first image, the motion vector boundary box generated based on a comparison of the first image relative to a second image. The example apparatus also includes a boundary box analyzer to: determine whether the motion vector boundary box corresponds to any artificial intelligence (AI)-based boundary box generated based on an analysis of the first image using an object detection machine learning model; and, in response to the motion vector boundary box not corresponding to any AI-based boundary box associated with the first image, associate a label with the motion vector boundary, the label to indicate the object detection machine learning model did not recognize the object in the first image.

Abstract: A method for initializing a panoramic video by a graphical user interface (GUI) includes receiving a panoramic video, creating a three-dimensional mesh, and displaying a preview rendered from the three-dimensional mesh. The GUI displays a time selection interface and selects a frame time in the panoramic video with the time selection interface. The GUI displays a view selection interface and selects view parameters that define a camera orientation at the frame time of the panoramic video with the view selection interface. The GUI determines a selected frame of the panoramic video defined by the frame time and the view parameter, renders the thumbnail from the three-dimensional mesh based on the selected frame, and stores orientation data including the frame time and the view parameters.
