  • Publication number: 20250103844
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide for automatically generating labels for sensor data. For instance, first sensor data for a vehicle may be identified. This first sensor data may have been captured by a first sensor of the vehicle at a first location during a first point in time and may be associated with a first label for an object. Second sensor data for the vehicle may be identified. The second sensor data may have been captured by a second sensor of the vehicle at a second location at a second point in time outside of the first point in time. The second location is different from the first location. A determination may be made as to whether the object is a static object.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a mute knob headgear which includes: two rack belts respectively connected to a VR head-mounted display; and a knob assembly provided at one end of the two rack belts away from the VR head-mounted display and in meshing connection with the two rack belts. The knob assembly is configured to adjust the tightness of the two rack belts, and includes a housing and a gear, a rotary wheel, a pawl, and a soft rubber ring provided in the housing. The present application drives the rotation of the gear by rotating the rotary wheel and then drives the rack to adjust the tightness; when rotating, the pawl and the soft rubber ring are in friction fit; when stopping the rotation, they can jam each other to prevent reverse rotation. The cooperation between the soft rubber ring and the pawl does not produce any sound and achieves infinite adjustment.
