Abstract: A vehicle includes a vehicle frame including a first frame rail, a second frame rail spaced cross-vehicle from the first frame rail, and a middle frame rail between the first frame rail and the second frame rail. The first frame rail and the second frame rail each have a vehicle-inboard side facing toward the middle frame rail. The vehicle-inboard sides each define a plurality of notches. The middle frame rail has a downward side facing downwardly and perpendicular to the vehicle-inboard sides. The downward side defining a plurality of notches. The vehicle frame has a rear cross-member and a front cross-member spaced vehicle-forward of the rear cross-member. The rear cross-member and the front cross-member are between the first frame rail and the second frame rail. The notches of the vehicle-inboard sides and the notches of the downward side are between the rear cross-member and the front cross-member.

Abstract: A vehicle including an ultra-wide band (UWB) transceiver is disclosed. The UWB transceiver may be configured to operate in a first mode and a second mode. The UWB transceiver may be configured to perform phone-as-a-key (PaaK) localization in the first mode and radar sensing in the second mode. The vehicle may further include a processor configured to activate the UWB transceiver in the first mode. The processor may receive a trigger signal to switch the UWB transceiver from the first mode to the second mode. Responsive to receiving the trigger signal, the processor may cause the UWB transceiver to transmit a radar pulse signal and receive a radar response signal reflected from a target located inside the vehicle. Based on the response signal, the processor may determine a sitting area profile and an occupant presence on a sitting area, and perform sitting area adjustment.

Abstract: A vehicle assembly includes a hinge and a wire shield assembly mounted to the hinge. A method of shielding a wire can include providing a tailgate assembly that includes a door subassembly pivotably coupled to a frame subassembly. The door subassembly and the frame subassembly can be pivotable together between a tailgate closed position and a tailgate open position. The method can include pivoting the door subassembly relative to the frame subassembly to provide a cargo bed access opening; and electrically connecting the door subassembly using a wire routed through a wire shield assembly.

Abstract: The disclosure is generally directed to systems and methods for detecting presence of a potential user of a vehicle, validating the potential user with a permissioned blockchain with a plurality of predefined nodes through a consensus among the predefined nodes, determining a level of authentication for the potential user according to the consensus and allowing the potential user to enter the vehicle and denying access to predetermined vehicle systems if the consensus fails to provide the level of authentication above a predefined percentage. The initializing the authentication based on detected presence of the potential user includes detecting the potential user with an exterior sensor coupled to the vehicle and applying the permissioned blockchain to perform facial recognition including performing an initial determination of authentication and requesting confirmation of the initial determination from at least one of the plurality of 63 predefined nodes.

Abstract: A system includes a computer including a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions executable by the processor to receive a reflection magnitude from an infrared sensor during a movement of an object relative to the infrared sensor, to determine a change of the reflection magnitude, and to detect the object based on comparing the determined change of the received reflection magnitude to a change threshold.

Abstract: A docking system is provided. The docking system includes a docking station and an autonomous mobile robot (AMR). The AMR includes a body, a mount movably coupled to the body, a sensor coupled to the mount and having a field-of-view, a processor, and a memory. The memory includes instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations including employ the sensor to scan the docking station, cause the mount to move independently with respect to the body in order to center the field-of-view on the docking station, and dock the AMR at the docking station using the centered field-of-view.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a vehicle roof and an airbag supported by the vehicle roof. The airbag is inflatable to an inflated position. The airbag defines an inflation chamber in the inflated position. The airbag includes a distal end below the vehicle roof in the inflated position. The vehicle includes an inflatable device supported by the vehicle roof. The inflatable device is a thermoplastic elastomer and inflatable to an inflated position. The inflatable device is in the inflation chamber of the airbag when the inflatable device and the airbag are in the inflated positions. The inflatable device includes a distal end in the inflation chamber of the airbag. The distal end of the inflatable device is below the vehicle roof and above the distal end of the airbag in the inflated position.
