Publication number: 20240153320Abstract: Disclosed herein is a test rover apparatus, a test system and a test method using the test rover apparatus. For example, the test rover apparatus is provided with a chassis that is configured to support an object representing a mobile actor, and a motor that is coupled to at least one wheel. At least one spring is coupled between the at least one wheel and the chassis to: bias the at least one wheel to extend out of the cavity to engage an underlying surface, and compress in response to a load being applied to the top of the chassis thereby retracting the at least one wheel into the cavity. A controller is configured to control the motor to drive the at least one wheel to propel the chassis along a predetermined route that is based on simulation data and corresponds to a maneuver of the mobile actor.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 4, 2022Publication date: May 9, 2024Applicant: FORD GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Thomas Daniel MCMENAMIN, JR., Raymond LEONARD, Michael BRANDL, Timothy RIGGS, Sean William SHAWGO, Dustin Ryan YAUTZ

Publication number: 20240127202Abstract: The invention relates to methods of processing financial transactions in a centralised system including slave and central servers. The method comprises generating, by the slave server, a first transaction block associated with a validated first data packet including data collected from a user device initiating a transaction session. After generation of the first transaction block, the method comprises generating, by the slave server, a transaction block associated with each data packet subsequently collected between either the user device and a central server or between the central server and the slave server, with the proviso that each time a data packet is collected, the data packet is validated against data in at least one of the first transaction block and a predecessor transaction block that is in a chain of transaction blocks associated with the first transaction block. The invention extends to an associated transaction system.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventor: Sean William HONEYWELL
