  • Publication number: 20250046865
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for suppressing propagation of a metal in a solid state electrolyte during cycling of an electrochemical device including the solid state electrolyte and an electrode comprising the metal. One method comprises forming the solid state electrolyte such that the solid state electrolyte has a structure comprising a plurality of grains of a metal-ion conductive material and a grain boundary phase located at some or all of grain boundaries between the grains, wherein the grain boundary phase suppresses propagation of the metal in the solid state electrolyte during cycling. Another method comprises forming the solid state electrolyte such that the solid state electrolyte is a single crystal.

  • Publication number: 20250000378
    Abstract: A method for motion-tolerant optical heart-rate monitoring may include calibrating an array of heart rate sensors of a handheld device by (i) evaluating, while the handheld device is being held by a user, an output of each sensor in the sensor array, (ii) selecting, based on the evaluation of the output of each sensor, a subset of sensors in the sensor array for use in detecting a heart rate of a user, and (iii) using the subset of sensors to monitor the heart rate of the user. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20240409125
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for detecting unclassified hazards for a driver assistance system of a vehicle. The systems include a data storage device comprising map data, one or more sensors configured to generate sensor data indicative of one or more sensed objects in proximity to the vehicle, and a controller configured to, by one or more processors thereof, receive the map data and the sensor data, filter the sensor data to omit at least one of the sensed objects located outside of a bounding area that includes a portion of an adjacent lane next to a current lane in which the vehicle is operating, determine whether an unclassified hazard is present in the adjacent lane, and maintain operation of the vehicle in the current lane in response to a determination that the unclassified hazard is present in the adjacent lane.

  • Publication number: 20240199013
    Abstract: A trailering velocity compensation system in a cruise control system is disclosed. The system includes a controller that is configured to: determine whether activation conditions for a trailering velocity compensation algorithm are met, and when the activation conditions are met, adjust a speed error used by the cruise control system; adjust a speed offset for application of brakes used by the cruise control system; adjust a speed offset for release of brakes used by the cruise control system; determine a set speed offset for inhibiting engine torque; determine a set speed offset for releasing engine torque inhibiting; adjust a headway time gap value used by the cruise control system; and control vehicle speed based on the adjusted speed error, adjusted speed offset for application of brakes, adjusted speed offset for release of brakes, set speed offset for inhibiting engine torque, set speed offset for releasing engine torque inhibiting, and adjusted headway time gap value.

  • Patent number: 9967749
    Abstract: Secure NFC interactions with a server information handling system management controller, such as a baseboard management controller, are supported with an NFC application running on a mobile information handling system. A private key is applied by the mobile application to create an application hash that a baseboard management controller verifies to authorize access by the NFC application. The private key encrypts a user name and password so that the baseboard management controller decrypts the user credentials to look up access privileges in a security database. If user privileges include access to components, the baseboard management controller automatically actuates locks to provide access.

  • Patent number: 9953825
    Abstract: An apparatus and system for plasma processing a substrate using RF power includes a chamber having walls for housing an electrostatic chuck (ESC) and a top electrode. The top electrode is oriented opposite the ESC to define a processing region. An inner line with a tubular shaped wall is defined within and is spaced apart from the walls of the chamber and is oriented to surround the processing region. The tubular shaped wall extends a height between a top and a bottom. The tubular shaped wall has functional openings for substrate access and facilities access and dummy openings oriented to define symmetry for selected ones of the functional openings. A plurality of straps are connected to the bottom of the tubular shaped wall of the inner liner and are electrically coupled to a ground ring within the chamber to provide an RF power return path during plasma processing.
