  • Publication number: 20240022032
    Abstract: An AC power outlet for an automotive center console comprises a bezel housing containing an array of terminals forming sockets for receiving power plugs according to a plurality of standardized plug layouts. Fixed and pivotable faceplates have respective openings according to first and second patterns for passage of respective prongs of the power plugs into the sockets. The pivotable faceplate is moved to (A) a first rotational position to reveal a first subset of openings on the fixed faceplate corresponding to a first standardized plug layout while blocking other openings, and (B) to a second rotational position reveal a second subset of the openings on the fixed faceplate corresponding to a second standardized plug layout while blocking other ones of the openings. A cover assembly has a cap and a mounting ring to install on the housing at any one of a plurality of angular positions.

  • Publication number: 20230018159
    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating a computer program for a governance, risk, compliance (GRC) system are described. In an example, a processor may detect a change among a plurality of objects in the GRC system. The processor may generate a snapshot of the plurality of objects in response to the detected change. The snapshot may include the detected change among the plurality of objects. The processor may train a machine learning model using the snapshot. The trained machine learning model may indicate relationships among a set of related objects, where the related objects may be among the plurality of objects. The processor may generate a computer program based on the trained machine learning model. The computer program may include a set of instructions for setting a field value of an object among the set of related objects.
