Abstract: A vehicle includes a front windshield wiper and a front windshield wiper actuator configured to actuate the front windshield wiper to wipe a front windshield of the vehicle. The vehicle includes a rear window wiper and a rear window wiper actuator configured to actuate the rear window wiper to wipe a rear window of the vehicle. A precipitation sensor configured to sense precipitation in front of the vehicle. A control system is configured to control a frequency of the front windshield wiper actuator and a frequency of the rear window wiper actuator based on an output of the precipitation sensor. The frequency of the rear window wiper may be proportional to the frequency of the front windshield wiper with adjustments for inputs such as vehicle speed, camera outputs, and current drawn by the rear window wiper actuator.

Abstract: A system for hanging objects from a mounting surface is presented. In one or more arrangements, the system includes a mounting rail and one or more hanging members configured to attach to the mounting rail and facilitate hanging of objects therefrom. The mounting rail includes a channel member that provides a channel having a downward facing open end. The hanging members are configured to be inserted into and held within the channel of the channel member. The hanging members each have a body configured to hang or hold one or more objects. Hanging members have a head portion configured to be inserted into and held within the channel. The hanging member also has a neck portion. When the head portion is held within the channel, the neck portion extends through the open end of the channel and connects the head portion to the body of the hanging member.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for automatically determining play states, intrinsic motivators, play types/patterns and a play personality of a user/subject. Play personalities develop from activation of play states and vary individually and are expressed in a variety of play type/patterns. These states, personalities, patterns and associated intrinsic motivations may be automatically determined by computing devices based on that user/subject's information, behaviors and biometric data. The play personality may be additionally used as the means for identifying and integrating intrinsic motivators into player-centric design which can alter and personalize user/subject/player engagement, experience and outcomes.

Abstract: A vehicle control system may include one or more processors and a memory comprising instructions executable by the processors, the processors operable to execute the instructions to perform operations comprising detecting a signal to activate vehicle lamps in a delivery lighting pattern. In some embodiments, the processors may be further operable to execute the instructions to perform operations including activating the vehicle lamps in the delivery lighting pattern, wherein a flashing frequency of the delivery lighting pattern differs from a flashing frequency of a hazard lighting pattern.

Abstract: A Christmas tree and a method of completing a well in a standard wellhead. The tree is presented as separately deployable upper and lower portions with the master valves contained in the lower portion so that they are located below the wellhead housing to lower the height of the tree while increasing well safety and integrity. The upper master valve is bi-directionally sealing to allow for pressure testing, removing the requirement for tubing hanger plugs.
