Embodiments include apparatuses, methods, and systems for computer assisted or autonomous driving (CA/AD). An apparatus for CA/AD may include a sensor interface, a communication interface, and a driving strategy unit. The sensor interface may receive sensor data indicative of friction between a road surface of a current location of a CA/AD vehicle and one or more surfaces of one or more tires of the CA/AD vehicle. The communication interface may receive, from an external road surface condition data source, data indicative of friction for a surface of a road section ahead of the current location of the CA/AD vehicle. The driving strategy unit may determine, based at least in part on the sensor data and the data received from the external road surface condition data source, a driving strategy for the CA/AD vehicle beyond the current location of the CA/AD vehicle. Other embodiments may also be described and claimed.

Road surface friction based predictive driving for computer assisted or autonomous driving vehicles

A tilt-up door having vertical side members each having a pivot point, the pivot points move upward or downward when an actuator is activated to move the door between open and closed positions. First and second cams connected to the vertical side members at a lower end of the cams, each of said cams extend from the lower end thereof upwardly and arcuately toward an interior of a building to a distal terminal end thereof, each of the ends contacts a cam follower. The cam followers slide along the first and second cams and guide the first and second cams and the door as the door moves between the open and closed positions.

Enhanced thermal energy transfer systems for semiconductor packages are provided. A thermally conductive member is disposed in the interstitial space between an upper surface of a semiconductor package and a lower surface of a thermal member. The thermally conductive member is disposed above a first portion of the upper surface of the semiconductor package having a relatively higher thermal energy output when the semiconductor package is operating. A thermal interface material is disposed in the interstitial space and a force applied to the thermal member. The thermally conductive member forms a relatively higher pressure region above the first portion of the semiconductor package and a relatively lower pressure region in other portions of the semiconductor package remote from the thermally conductive member. The increased pressure region proximate the thermally conductive member beneficially enhances the flow of thermal energy from the first portion of the semiconductor package to the thermal member.

Enhanced systems and methods for improved heat transfer from semiconductor packages

An electronic device is provided that includes a base, a processor, and a tablet having a front surface, a rear surface and a bottom edge surface. A processor may operate at a first operating condition when the tablet is coupled to the base, and the processor may operate at a second operating condition when the tablet is not coupled to the base. The tablet may include a heat conducting device and an active edge. The heat conducting device may conduct heat from the processor to the active edge where the heat may be dissipated using supplemental cooling.

Electronic device having an active edge

Various systems and methods for providing a smart entry system are described herein. A smart entry system includes a detector to detect a person near a portal to a room; a transceiver to attempt to establish a wireless connection between the smart entry system and a user device associated with the person; and a user interface to present a notification to the person based on a state of the wireless connection.

Internet of things smart entry

An example apparatus includes: a first earpiece to be positioned proximate a first ear of a user and including: a first microphone to transduce ambient sound external to the first earpiece into a first ambient audio signal, the ambient sound including sound indicative of a potential danger; and a first speaker to transduce a first input audio signal into music and the first ambient audio signal into the sound indicative of the potential danger; and a second earpiece to be positioned proximate a second ear of the user and including: a second microphone to transduce the ambient sound external to the second earpiece into a second ambient audio signal, the ambient sound including the sound indicative of the potential danger; and a second speaker to transduce a second input audio signal into the music and the second ambient audio signal into the sound indicative of the potential danger.

Binaural recording for processing audio signals to enable alerts

Robots and apparatus, systems and methods for powering robots are disclosed. A disclosed conductive floor to power a robot on the floor includes a plurality of stationary conductors positioned in a pattern and a power delivery circuit to cause adjacent ones of the conductors to have different electrical potentials, the adjacent ones of the conductors to form a circuit to deliver power to the robot via contacts formed in a bottom surface of the robot.

Robots and apparatus, systems and methods for powering robots

Some embodiments of an apparatus and system are described for a crossflow blower. An apparatus may comprise an enclosure having a first side and a second side where a portion of the first side is recessed in a direction of the second side. The enclosure may also comprise a first internal height between the first side and the second side and a second internal height between the recessed portion of the first side and the second side. The enclosure may also comprise a motor and a crossflow blower arranged to generate a flow of air between the first side and the second side in a direction substantially perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the crossflow blower. Other embodiments are described.

Crossflow blower apparatus and system

A wearable device for binaural audio is described. The wearable device includes a feedback mechanism, a microphone, an always on binaural recorder (AOBR), and a processor. The AOBR is to capture ambient noise via the microphone and interpret the ambient noise. An alert is issued by the processor to the feedback mechanism based on a notification detected via the microphone in the ambient noise.
