    Abstract: A power generation platform for delivering power to an external load includes an electrical system mounted to an autonomously-controlled chassis. The chassis has a powertrain that is responsive to control signals from a controller. The electrical system includes a fuel cell or other clean power supply for propelling the chassis, a direct current (DC) charging unit, a turbojet, a battery pack, and one or more electric machines. The DC charging unit and the battery pack are selectively connectable to the external load to deliver power to the external load, e.g., a propulsion battery pack of a vehicle or other system. The turbojet has a compressor, combustion chamber, and turbine, and injects low-emissions fuel into and combusts the fuel in the combustion chamber. The electric machine(s) are rotatably coupled to the compressor and/or the turbine to generate and transmit electricity to the battery pack.

    Abstract: Mobile device-activated vehicle functions are implemented by authenticating a vehicle with a device via wireless signals transmitted between a low frequency antenna of the device and a low frequency antenna of the vehicle when the vehicle is in communicative range of the device. The mobile device-activated vehicle functions are further implemented by receiving, via computer processor embedded in the device, a selection from one of a plurality of input components embedded in the device, the selection associated with a vehicle function, and transmitting a request to implement the vehicle function via the low frequency antenna coupled to the computer processor and the low frequency antenna of the vehicle.

    Abstract: A system for vehicle Bluetooth pairing is provided. The system includes a smartphone configured for Bluetooth communication. The system further includes a vehicle including a computerized pairing operation controller configured for Bluetooth communication. The computerized pairing operation controller includes programming to emit a notification signal detectable by the smartphone. The smartphone includes programming to establish proximity to the vehicle based upon the notification signal and establish a Bluetooth low energy connection to the vehicle based upon establishing the proximity. The computerizing pairing operation controller further includes programming to automatically set up a Bluetooth connection after the Bluetooth low energy connection is established.

    Abstract: A system in a vehicle includes a personal thermal device. The personal thermal device provides heating or cooling to an individual occupant of the vehicle. The system also includes a controller implementing reinforcement learning to control the personal thermal device. The controller obtains states, from one or more sensors, indicating current conditions, to obtain a score that is determined according to the states and that represents a reward used in the reinforcement learning. The controller provides a stochastic policy indicating a probability of taking a particular action to control the personal thermal device based on the score acting as a feedback for feedback control of the personal thermal device using the reinforcement learning.

    Abstract: A method for finding a distressed vehicle operated by a first user located in an urban area includes providing a first mobile device of a first user. The first mobile device is electronically connected to a wireless communication network, and the first user is in possession of a vehicle. An event is detected that has occurred to the vehicle and a severity level of the event. When the severity level of the event is above a threshold it is determine that the event was sufficient enough to warrant an emergency response. A current position is determined of the first mobile device of the first user. A second mobile device of a second user is searched for within a first distance of the current position of the first mobile device. A first notification is communicated to the second user via the second mobile device.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for tracking intent or awareness based on a gaze of a user are provided. The method includes receiving gaze information of the gaze of the user; based on the gaze information, determining whether a function of the vehicle was activated by the user; in response to determining that the function was activated by the user, generating and storing historical gaze information in a database; and in response to determining that the function is not activated by the user, calculating a probability that the function will be activated by the user during a processing cycle and generating and storing the historical gaze information in the database based on the calculated probability and size of the database. The apparatus and method may be used to track the gaze of a user of a vehicle and predict user behavior based on the historical gaze information.
