20150178998 | FAULT HANDLING IN AN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE - Data is collected during operation of a vehicle. A determination is made that a confidence assessment of at least one of the data indicates at least one fault condition. A first autonomous operation affected by the fault condition is discontinued, where a second autonomous operation that is unaffected by the fault condition is continued. | 06-25-2015 |
20150251666 | MESSAGING VIA VEHICLE STEERING WHEEL - One of a condition affecting a vehicle and a planned action of the vehicle are identified.

20150274169 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ENERGY OPTIMIZATION IN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE OPERATION - Vehicle operating systems are autonomously operated. A transient in an upcoming path of the vehicle is determined from a comparison of vehicle path data and vehicle status data to a threshold of mechanism first operating system. Operational parameters for one of first and second operating systems are selected according to the comparison. The selected operational parameters are applied to the operation of the one of the first and second operating systems. | 10-01-2015 |

20160005326 | ADAPTIVE, IMMERSIVE, AND EMOTION-DRIVEN INTERACTIVE MEDIA SYSTEM - An interactive, educational system that provides an immersive and adaptive environment for a user to explore content through dimensional, time-sensitive, and emotion-sensitive inputs and outputs. The system is implemented on a networked device, such as a mobile tablet, and can contain a real-time, three-dimensional, content delivery engine that is capable of providing an augmented reality interaction model for the user. Therefore, a real world, physical movement that the user takes with the networked device will be reflected on the device. The system can use image recognition technology to recognize objects within the real world and display those objects on the interface. Further, the system can superimpose computer-generated images onto the virtual display of objects from the user's real world environment. | 01-07-2016 |

20110233100 | EGG AND OTHER PRODUCT PACKAGING - An egg carton includes a base and a lid that are hinged together through a web. The base and lid may include side walls extending around the base and the lid, the base including at least one egg cup for receiving an egg but typically around six. The base further includes at least one compartment in the base for containing other ingredients than eggs, such as bacon. The lid and base include co-operating members arranged so that when the lid is closed on the base the co-operating members ensure that there is a gap between the side walls of the lid and base to allow the flow of air into and out of the carton. This ensures that no moisture collects in the carton that can affect the longevity of the eggs and other ingredients. | 09-29-2011 |
