    Abstract: Headrest assemblies and method of use thereof are provided to support a neck of an occupant of a seat. The headrest assemblies include a headrest cushion, a neck support cushion, and one or more extension members coupling the neck support cushion to the headrest cushion. The extension member(s) are configured to be transitioned between a retracted configuration in which the neck support cushion is adjacent to the headrest cushion and a first dimension is defined along a central longitudinal axis of the extension member(s), and an extended configuration in which the neck support cushion is cantilevered from the headrest cushion and a second dimension is defined along the central longitudinal axis of the extension member(s) that is greater than the first dimension. The extension member(s) are configured to releasably lock to secure the neck support cushion in a fixed position at least while in the extended configuration.

    Abstract: A vehicle system for a vehicle includes a vehicle processor for storing vehicle data including vehicle location, vehicle event data, and vehicle mode. The vehicle system also includes a server communicatively coupled to the vehicle processor. The server is configured to determine if a transport mode has been selected based on one or more of the vehicle mode or the vehicle location. The server is also configured to determine if a current battery change is above a state-of-charge limitation based on the vehicle event data. Additionally, the server is configured to activate the transport mode if the current battery charge is below the state-of-charge limitation.

    Abstract: A method for SLAM-based parking assist includes determining that a host vehicle is entering a corridor adjacent a target parking slot and determining a potential reusability of at least one of a plurality of previously determined training outcome of a training process for the target parking slot. The training outcome includes training identifying data of a potential parking slot. The method further includes receiving identifying data of the target parking slot, identifying which of the plurality of training outcomes is reusable based on the identifying data of the target parking slot to select an identified training outcome, comparing the identifying data of the target parking slot with the identifying data of the potential parking slot of the identified training outcome, and loading the identifying data of the target parking slot into a SLAM-based parking assist.

    Abstract: A system for inline inspection of an elongate strip of metal foil includes at least one pair of opposed conductive rollers each having a surface of dielectric material thereon, and a circuit electrically connecting the rollers, and a sensor for detecting changes in the capacitance between the rollers. A method of inspecting metal foil includes passing the metal foil between at least one pair of opposed conductive rollers, each roller of the pair having a surface of dielectric material thereon in contact with an opposite side of the foil, and measuring changes in an electrical property in an electrically powered circuit connecting the rollers to identify defects in the portion of the foil between the rollers.

    Abstract: A battery cell including a stack and a first internal terminal. The stack includes: C cathode electrodes each including a cathode current collector, a cathode active layer arranged on the cathode current collector, and an external connector extending from the cathode current collector; A anode electrodes each including an anode current collector, an anode active layer arranged on the anode current collector, and an external connector extending from the anode current collector; and S separators, where C, A, and S are integers greater than one. Each one of the external connectors, of one of the C cathode electrodes and the A anode electrodes, includes a first tab and a second tab extending farther than the first tab, the second tabs are folded onto the first tabs, and the first internal terminal is laser welded onto the second tabs.
