Abstract: A bussed electrical center includes an electrical-assembly and a single fastening feature. The electrical-assembly includes a lower-housing, a printed-circuit-board, an upper-housing, and electrical-devices. The lower-housing engages an outer-housing that retains electrical-connectors having a plurality of electrical-terminals. The printed-circuit-board has a plurality of corresponding-electrical-terminals configured to mate with the plurality of electrical-terminals of the electrical-connectors. The electrical-assembly defines a guide-hole that passes through the upper-housing, the printed-circuit-board, and the lower-housing, wherein the guide-hole defines a shoulder in the upper-housing. The single fastening feature consists of one first-fastener element positioned within the guide-hole that has a flange and a shank. The shank is operable to engage one second-fastener element in the outer-housing. The flange engages the shoulder, wherein the electrical-assembly is drawn into the outer-housing when the first-fastener element and the second-fastener element are tightened together to mate the electrical-terminals with the corresponding-electrical-terminals.

Abstract: A back shell is described herein. The back shell is configured to be attached to a connector body defining a first attaching feature in its outer surface. The back shell has an attachment portion defining a second attaching feature and a generally tubular support portion extending from this attachment portion. The second attaching feature is configured to engage the first attaching feature of the connector body to secure the back shell to the connector body. An outer surface of the attachment portion of the back shell defines a third attaching feature that is identical in configuration and function to the first attaching feature.

Abstract: An electronic assembly includes a printed-circuit-board, an electronic-component, and a heat-sink-element. The printed-circuit-board has a first-surface and a second-surface opposite said first surface. The printed-circuit-board defines a via that connects the first-surface to the second-surface. The electronic-component defines a top-surface and a mounting-surface. The mounting-surface is in direct-contact with the printed-circuit-board. The heat-sink-element is in compressive-contact with both the electronic-component and the printed-circuit-board. The heat-sink-element defines a fin, a shank, and a contact-section therebetween. The contact-section rests on the top-surface, the fin extends above the top-surface, and the shank extends through the via of the printed-circuit-board and beyond the second-surface. The heat-sink-element is configured to transfer heat from the contact-section to the fin and the shank.

Abstract: A method used to predict a strength of an ultrasonic weld-joint of a wire-cable comprising the steps of providing a wire-cable, determining a combined-weight, removing a contaminant, determining a weight, determining a percentage by weight of the contaminant, and determining whether the percentage by weight of contaminant is less than a threshold. Determining the percentage by weight of the contaminant removed from the wire-cable is based on a formula [(Mb−Ma)/Mb]*100, where Mb is the combined-weight of the wire-cable and the contaminant and Ma is the weight of the wire-cable. The threshold of the percentage by weight of the contaminant correlates to the strength of the ultrasonic weld-joint.

Abstract: An automated-taxi client identification system for automated vehicles includes a communications-network, a camera, and a controller. The communications-network is used to send a transportation-request from a client to an automated-taxi, and communicate an identification-code to be displayed by the client. The camera is used by the automated-taxi to capture an image of a pickup-zone. The controller is in communication with the camera and the communications-network. The controller determines when the identification-code is detected in the image and determines a location of the client based on a position of the identification-code in the image.

Abstract: A circuit-board-assembly includes a printed-circuit-board, an integrated-circuit-die, a ball-grid-array, a barrier-material, and an adhesive-material. The printed-circuit-board includes a mounting-surface that defines a plurality of contact-pads and a continuous-trace that interconnects a selected-group of the contact-pads. The integrated-circuit-die includes an electrical-circuit having a plurality of solder-pads. The ball-grid-array includes a plurality of solder-balls interposed between the contact-pads and the solder-pads. The plurality of solder-balls establish electrical communication between the electrical-circuit and the contact-pads. The barrier-material is located between a string of solder-balls that are attached to the selected-group of the contact-pads to create a barrier. The barrier segregates an underfill-region from a non-underfill-region between the printed-circuit-board and the integrated-circuit-die. The barrier is in direct-contact with the string of the solder-balls, the integrated-circuit-die, and the continuous-trace. The adhesive-material is in direct contact with a portion of the underfill-region and the barrier prevents the adhesive-material from encroaching upon the non-underfill-region.

Abstract: A method of generating a polyline representing a contour of one or more objects includes the steps a) formulating a series of spatially ordered points in 2-dimensional space, each representing a (point) detection with respect to object(s); b) connecting the end points of the series of ordered points with a first straight line segment, and determining the shortest distance between each of the intermediate points and the first segment; c) determining from step b) a threshold based on a measure of the dispersion of the intermediate points around the segment; d) for each side of the segment determining, for any points that lie on that respective side, the point which is further from the segment; e) determining any of the points found in step d) which are further from the segment than the threshold; f) formulating a polyline by connecting the end points of the points determined from step e).

Abstract: An electrical connection system having a male terminal and female terminal configured to receive the male terminal. The female terminal has a resilient contact defining a ridge extending vertically from a top surface of the resilient contact and extends longitudinally along the resilient contact. The ridge is configured to provide a contact point between the female terminal and the male terminal. A leading edge of the ridge forms a ramp having an angle that is greater than 0 degrees and less than or equal to 30 degrees relative to the top surface of the resilient contact.

Abstract: A coherent lidar system suitable for use on an automated vehicle includes a laser-unit, a lens, a coupler, and a polarized-beam-splitter. The laser-unit is used to provide a laser-beam directed toward a target-area and generate a local-oscillator. The local-oscillator is characterized by a reference-polarization. The lens is used to collect reflected-light that is a reflection of the laser-beam by a target present in the target-area. The coupler is used to combine the reflected-light collected by the lens and the local-oscillator to form a composite-beam. The polarized-beam-splitter used to provide a first-beam that corresponds to the composite-beam polarized to a first-polarization, and a second-beam that corresponds to the composite-beam polarized to a second-polarization different from the first-polarization.
