Abstract: A method to operate a customer-centric portable personal vehicle seat position system includes: generating pressure sensor profiles in response to a user seated on a vehicle seat of a first vehicle having a seat base and a seat back; correlating the pressure sensor profiles to individual user tasks; performing data reduction of the pressure sensor profiles after correlation to the individual user tasks; and encoding. multiple seat comfort preference profiles.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for user sensory control in a bounded space. In one embodiment, the techniques involve receiving user data, generating light data based on the user data and sensory data, generating scent data based on the user data and the sensory data, and controlling a light emission or a scent emission based on a combination of the light data and the scent data.

Abstract: A lunar rover includes a body, at least one collection device configured to collect lunar regolith, and a power supply. In some examples, the collection device includes at least one wall defining an opening and at least one plate positioned in the opening. The power supply is configured to apply a voltage difference across the collection device. In some examples, the lunar rover further includes a movable arm including an end connected to the body and another end connected to the collection device, at least one polarity sensor configured to detect a polarity of lunar regolith adjacent to the lunar rover, and a controller configured to control the power supply to apply a voltage difference across the collection device based on the detected polarity of the lunar regolith adjacent to the lunar rover. Other examples of lunar rovers are also disclosed.

Abstract: A lunar rover chassis includes at least two wheels, a power supply, and at least one axle assembly coupled between the at least two wheels. The axle assembly includes an inner axle coupled with the at least two wheels, and an outer wall surrounding the inner axle. The inner axle is configured to rotate to drive rotation of the at least two wheels, the inner axle includes a first conductive surface, and the outer wall includes a second conductive surface. The power supply is electrically connected to the first conductive surface of the inner axle and the second conductive surface of the outer wall, and the power supply is configured to apply a voltage difference between the first conductive surface of the inner axle and the second conductive surface of the outer wall to attract or repel lunar regolith from the outer wall.
