20220283583 · 2022-09-08 ·

A system includes a memory device and a processing device. The processing device is operatively coupled to the memory device to perform operations, including receiving a set of data associated with operation of a self-propelled vehicle, obtaining power demand data based on the set of data, and utilizing the power demand data within one or more applications related to the self-propelled vehicle.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING DIAGNOSTICS OF A WATER SYSTEM ON-BOARD A WATERCRAFT

Diagnostics systems and methods for on-board raw water systems of watercraft. Flow or pressure changes are detected at one or more locations along a flow path of the onboard raw water system. A fault is diagnosed based on a type of flow change or pressure change detected. An alert is issued regarding the fault and/or a remedial action is suggested for correcting the fault.

HYBRID BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
20220080853 · 2022-03-17 ·

Provided is a device configured to determine a power capacity of a battery of a vehicle, predict a first set of values indicative of amounts of power to be stored during a time interval by the battery, the power being generated by a renewable energy generator carried by the vehicle, and predict a second set of values indicative of amounts of energy to be consumed from the battery during the time interval based on previous energy consumption by the vehicle. The device is also configured to determine a score based on the power capacity, the first set of values, and the second set of values. The system is also configured to determine whether the score satisfies a threshold and, in response to a determination that the score satisfies the threshold, activate an internal combustion engine to charge to the battery.
