  • Patent number: 12240492
    Abstract: Methods and systems of controlling a vehicle. The methods and systems include switching to a second processor executed mode in response to determining that a range of perception information extends to a range end point that is closer to the vehicle than a first Look Ahead (LA) point. In the second processor executed mode: a motion planner requests a lateral controller to provide a closer LA point relative to the vehicle. The lateral controller determines the closer LA point and sends the closer LA point to the motion planner. The lateral controller generates control commands for an EPS system based on an error between a desired trajectory and an actual trajectory at the closer LA point. The motion planner generates the desired trajectory based on perception data and the closer LA point.

  • Publication number: 20250040546
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods of inactivating a lipid enveloped virus in a product feedstream in a manufacturing process of a therapeutic protein using environmentally compatible detergents. The present disclosure provides a detergent mixture comprising two environmentally sustainable detergents: n-Octyl-?-D-Glucopyranoside (OG) and n-Dodecyl-?-D-Maltopyranoside (DDM). The performance of this OG:DDM detergent combination is superior to that of Lauryldimethylamine Oxide (LDAO), ECOSURF™ EH9, or Triton X-100 in the purification of therapeutic proteins such as abatacept and belatacept. OG:DDM combinations are highly effective for viral inactivation, while having essentially no impact on protein stability, protein charge distribution (e.g., sialic acid levels), impurity clearance, protein deamination, or protein oxidation. Accordingly, combinations of OG and DDM can be used as substitutes of Triton X-100 for viral inactivation steps in the production of biologics.

    Abstract: In a method for synchronizing character display, motion data of a first character over a time period is obtained. A first phase parameter for the first character at an end of the time period is determined based on the motion data and a standard action cycle for a current action that is performed by the first character. A second phase parameter from the second terminal is received. The first phase parameter is adjusted based on the second phase parameter to obtain a third phase parameter. Updated motion data for the first character is generated based on the third phase parameter. The first character is displayed based on the updated motion data.
