Abstract: A system in a vehicle includes a personal thermal device. The personal thermal device provides heating or cooling to an individual occupant of the vehicle. The system also includes a controller implementing reinforcement learning to control the personal thermal device. The controller obtains states, from one or more sensors, indicating current conditions, to obtain a score that is determined according to the states and that represents a reward used in the reinforcement learning. The controller provides a stochastic policy indicating a probability of taking a particular action to control the personal thermal device based on the score acting as a feedback for feedback control of the personal thermal device using the reinforcement learning.

Abstract: An apparatus for tracking a gaze of a user is provided. The apparatus includes a memory including computer executable instructions; and a processor that reads and executes the computer executable instructions. The instructions cause the processor to receive gaze information associated with the gaze of the user; based on the gaze information, determine whether change information associated with the gaze of the user is greater than a threshold value; and in response to determining the change information is greater than the threshold value, predict at least one from among a gaze vector of the gaze of the user and a location of a gaze target of the gaze of the user based on a kinematic model. The gaze tracking apparatus may be used in a vehicle to perform vehicle functions based on the gaze of a user of a vehicle or to update gaze modeling database.

Abstract: Implementations of the present invention contemplate utilizing the communicative connections between a telematics service provider (TSP), a communication device, and a telematics unit in a vehicle to manage personalized information of a subscriber. Implementations contemplate the removal of personalized information of a subscriber from data stores located at a vehicle, the uploading of personalized information of a subscriber to a database of an operations control center of the TSP, and the downloading of personalized information of a subscriber by a telematics unit of a vehicle from an operations control center of the TSP. Implementations enable personalized information of a subscriber to be removed from a vehicle remotely in order to prevent a user of the vehicle from accessing personalized information of the subscriber. Furthermore, implementations enable personalized information of a subscriber to be accessed by a vehicle in order to provide a subscriber with a customized experience in the vehicle.

Abstract: Computer-implemented methods, systems and apparatus are disclosed for providing notification at an automotive head unit (AHU) of a vehicle that a pre-paired consumer electronics device (CED), such as a wireless communication device, is outside a vehicle. When it is determined that the pre-paired CED is not connected to a wireless communication interface of the AHU, a notification can be provided to the AHU indicating that the pre-paired CED is not connected. Positional data from a location message, provided from the pre-paired CED, can then be processed to generate location data and provide the location data to the AHU.

Abstract: A utility vehicle including a housing configured for storing goods therein during transport. A handlebar extends into a chassis sleeve defined by a chassis. The handlebar is slidably moveable forward and backward within the chassis sleeve. A sensor includes a flexible member having a first end mounted to the chassis sleeve and a second end mounted to the handlebar. The sensor is configured to sense a magnitude and a direction of a force exerted on the handlebar by an operator. A control module is in communication with the sensor and a motor. The control module is configured to control motor speed and motor direction of the motor based on the magnitude and the direction of the force exerted on the handlebar by the operator as sensed by the sensor.

Abstract: A smart glass display includes a first glass layer, a second glass layer, a display layer, an auto-shading layer and a control module. The display layer is disposed between the first glass layer and the second glass layer and includes an array of light emitting diodes and at least one ambient light sensor. The at least one ambient light sensor is configured to detect a level of ambient light at the display layer. The auto-shading layer includes suspended particle devices each of which configured to selectively provide different levels of transparency. The control module is configured to, based on an output of the at least one ambient light sensor, adjust a transparency level of at least a portion of the auto-shading layer.

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are provided of a backend server communicating with vehicles equipped with an ePallet to identify delivery damage-causing events by a processor communicating with delivery vehicles with an ePallets in a transport of a package in delivery to customers; receiving location to identify locations that exhibit a likelihood to cause damage to the package; determining a location that exhibits the likelihood to cause package damage by analysis of acceleration data received from a first accelerometer located with the delivery vehicle and a second accelerometer located with the ePallet; compiling a set of events based on acceleration data from the first and second accelerometer indicative of an ePallet's movement desynced to a delivery vehicle's movement that can cause package damage; and notifying the delivery vehicle of an event likely causing package damage so the delivery vehicle can re-route navigation of the package delivery to prevent package damage.
