Abstract: A high-performance vehicle network architecture agnostic gateway is disclosed herein. The high-performance gateway includes an application unit, a real-time processing unit, and an image processing unit. The application unit is configured to optimize vehicle operation and maintenance as well as passenger safety and comfort using artificial intelligence and/or machine learning. The real-time processing unit is configured to perform time-sensitive electronic control unit (ECU) sequencing and scheduling based on information received from ECUs across the vehicle network architecture. The image processing unit is configured to detect a speed limit, manage vehicle night vision, inform a lane departure, and identify driver fatigue based on image data received from the ECUs.

Abstract: A turbocharger system includes a wastegate with a bypass passage and a valve assembly. The valve assembly includes a poppet with an axis. The valve assembly also includes an arm that is attached to the poppet and that supports movement of the poppet between a closed position and an open position. Additionally, the valve assembly includes a plurality of biasing members that are disposed within a joint between the poppet and the arm. The plurality of biasing members provides a biasing force directed in a radial direction relative to the axis. The plurality of biasing members is disposed substantially symmetrically with respect to a first radial line of symmetry and a second radial line of symmetry.
