    摘要: The disclosure generally pertains to systems and methods for providing off-road track drivability guidance. In an example scenario, a processor receives a sensor signal that is generated when a vehicle is driven on an off-road track. The processor evaluates the sensor signal to obtain information about a driving surface of the off-road track such as, a material composition, a gradient, and/or an amount of provided traction. The processor conveys the information to another processor (which may be a part of a server computer) that determines a drivability status of the off-road track based on the information about the driving surface and additional parameters, such as present and/or future weather conditions. The server computer may provide the drivability status in response to a query from a processor that is located in another vehicle (or in a personal communication device carried by a driver of the vehicle).

    摘要: A vehicle includes an electric machine having a rotor and a stator, a resolver that measures a position of the rotor relative to the stator, and a controller. The controller, based on the position and a resolver offset, injects a first current having only a d-axis component into the electric machine, and responsive to detecting a first motion output of the electric machine being greater than a threshold, adjusts the resolver offset according to a magnitude and direction of the first motion output.

    摘要: A heat pump includes a refrigerant loop. The refrigerant loop includes a first heat exchanger, a first region of a second heat exchanger, a third heat exchanger, a fourth heat exchanger, a compressor, a vapor generator, an accumulator, a first expansion valve, and a first three-way valve. The compressor includes a low-pressure inlet, a mid-pressure inlet, and an outlet. The vapor generator is positioned downstream of the outlet of the compressor and upstream of both the low-pressure inlet and the mid-pressure inlet. The vapor generator includes a first region and a second region. The accumulator is positioned immediately upstream of the compressor. The accumulator includes an inlet and an outlet. The first expansion valve is positioned upstream of the accumulator. The first expansion valve includes an inlet and an outlet. The first three-way valve is positioned immediately downstream of the first expansion. valve and immediately upstream of the accumulator.

    摘要: A computer, including a processor and a memory, the memory including instructions to be executed by the processor to divide each of one or more images acquired by a camera into a plurality of zones, determine respective camera noise values for respective zones based on the one or more images, determine one or more zone expected values for the one or more images by summing camera noise values multiplied by scalar coefficients for each zone and normalizing the sum by dividing by a number of zones in the plurality of zones, and determine a source of the camera as being one of the same camera or an unknown camera based on comparing the one or more zone expected values to previously acquired expected zone values.

    摘要: An example trailer hitch is disclosed. The example trailer hitch includes a trailer hitch including a base to be coupled to a vehicle bed of a vehicle, a carriage slidably coupled to the base, the carriage to slide along rails of the base between a first position and a second position, and a head rotatably coupled to the carriage, the carriage to slide from the first position to the second position in response to rotation of the head.
