    Abstract: A vehicle body structure includes an inner sill member, an outer sill member and a first reinforcement bracket. The inner sill member has an inner upper flange, a horizontally extending section and an inner lower flange extending downward from the horizontally extending section. The outer sill member has an outer upper flange and an outer lower flange. The inner upper flange and the outer upper flanges are fixedly attached to one another. The inner lower flange and the outer lower flanges are fixedly attached to one another defining a sill structure with hollow interior. The first reinforcement bracket is disposed within the hollow interior and has an outboard portion fixedly attached to the outer sill member and an inboard portion fixedly attached to the horizontally extending section of the inner sill member.

    Abstract: A system and method of displaying advertising content includes transmitting data associated with a vehicle to a data center. An advertisement is generated based on the transmitted data. The advertisement is transmitted to the vehicle. An evaluation period is determined during which the advertisement is prevented from being displayed. The advertisement is displayed on a display of an in-vehicle infotainment system following the evaluation period.

    Abstract: Controlling a vehicle using contextual navigation assistance can include defining a context for the vehicle using sensor data for a plurality of time points while the vehicle traverses between a starting and stopping location, the context being one of multiple contexts, and each associated with at least one candidate variable for inclusion in an ordered representation of information, classifying the vehicle into a phase of multiple phases associated with different proximities of the vehicle to a maneuver, each phase associated with at least one candidate variable for inclusion in the ordered representation, and generating, using the phase and the context, the ordered representation. The ordered representation is ranked from most likely to least likely information that is necessary, during a current phase, to successfully complete the maneuver. The ordered representation is produced by a user interface so that it can be used to control the vehicle.

    Abstract: A rod tightening tool includes an elongated member, a clamping assembly and a wrench attachment end. The elongated member has a semi-hollow interior and defines an opening at one end thereof providing access to the semi-hollow interior. The elongated member has a slot formed along a portion thereof that extends to the semi-hollow interior. The clamping assembly has a first member and a second member. The first member is installed for sliding movement along an exterior surface of the elongated member. The second member is installed to the first member such that the first and second members clamp to the elongated member. The wrench attachment end is fixedly attached to the elongated member.

    Abstract: A keyfob has an electronic controller, a plurality of command inputs, a keyfob antenna and a feedback device. The plurality of command inputs, the keyfob antenna and the feedback device are in electronic communication with the controller. The controller is configured to send signals to a vehicle door lock system in response to operation one or more of the plurality of command inputs that instruct the vehicle door lock system to switch at least one door between a locked state and an unlocked state. The controller is further configured to enter a diagnostic mode in response to a predetermined operation of the plurality of command inputs such that in the diagnostic mode the keyfob operates as a diagnostic tool that detects an operating state of at least one of the keyfob and the vehicle door lock system.

    Abstract: A vehicle body structure includes an interior side wall, a floor structure and an airbag support member. The interior side wall defines a first door opening. The floor structure at least partially defines a passenger compartment of a vehicle along with the interior side wall. The floor structure defines seat supporting section adjacent to the first door opening. The airbag support member has an upper end and a lower end and an airbag attachment portion. The lower end is attached to the interior side wall at a first location above the floor structure between the first door opening and the seat supporting section, the upper end being attached to the interior side wall structure at a second location above the first location.

    Abstract: A vehicle seat support structure includes a vehicle body structure, a support frame of a seat assembly and a support bracket. The vehicle body structure has a floor that at least partially defines a passenger compartment. The support frame of the seat assembly is installed to the vehicle body structure such that at least a portion of the support frame overlays the floor. The support bracket has a pair of child seat attachment portions and a frame attachment portion. The support bracket is fixedly attached to the vehicle body structure with a portion of the support frame connected to the frame attachment portion.

    Abstract: A method for world objects tracking and prediction by an autonomous vehicle includes receiving, from sensors of the AV, a first observation data; associating the first observation data with a first world object; determining hypotheses for the first world object; determining a respective hypothesis likelihood of each of the hypotheses indicating a likelihood that the first world object follows the intention; determining, for at least one hypothesis of the hypotheses, a respective state; and in response to a query, providing a hypothesis of the hypotheses based on the respective hypothesis likelihood of each of the hypotheses. A hypothesis corresponds to an intention of the first world object and the respective state includes predicted positions of the first world object.
