Abstract: Portable lodgings may include a material sheet configured to define a shell of the portable lodging, which may further define an interior area sheltered from an exterior environment via the shell. Portable lodgings may include a sleeve disposed adjacent a surface of the material sheet. A first portion of the sleeve may extend along an exterior surface of the material sheet. A second portion of the sleeve may extend along an interior surface of the material sheet disposed opposite the exterior surface. The sleeve may extend through the material sheet between the first portion and the second portion. Portable lodgings may include a pole disposed in the sleeve. The first portion of the sleeve may be configured to expose a first portion of the pole to the exterior environment. The second portion of the sleeve may be configured to expose a second portion of the pole to the interior area.

Abstract: While operating a host vehicle in a lane, a target vehicle is detected entering the lane in front of the vehicle. A trajectory of the target vehicle is predicted based on sensor data. Upon determining that the target vehicle will pass through the lane based on the predicted trajectory, the host vehicle is operated based on determining a presence or an absence of a lead vehicle. Upon determining that the target vehicle will remain in the lane based on the predicted trajectory, the host vehicle is operated with the target vehicle as the lead vehicle.

Abstract: A compressor is provided suitable for compressing natural gas from a pressure associated with a residential gas supply to a pressure suitable for an automotive gas tank. The compressor utilizes a par of pneumatic cylinders driven by a hydraulic cylinder to compress the gas in a multi-stage process. Various embodiments are provided with respect to the gas compressor portion and the drive portion. A pressure boost system is also provided which utilizes an internal control valve and internal orifice through the piston of one of the pneumatic cylinders.
