Cargo inspection, monitoring and securement in self-driving trucks
11580484 · 2023-02-14 · ·

The technology relates to cargo vehicles. National, regional and/or local regulations set requirements for operating cargo vehicles, including how to distribute and secure cargo, and how often the cargo should be inspected during a trip. However, such regulations have been focused on traditional human-driven vehicles. Aspects of the technology address various issues involved with securement and inspection of cargo before a trip, as well as monitoring during the trip so that corrective action may be taken as warranted. For instance, imagery and other sensor information may be used to enable proper securement of cargo before starting a trip. Onboard sensors along the vehicle monitor the cargo and securement devices/systems during the trip to identify issues as they arise. Such information is used by the onboard autonomous driving system (or a human driver) to take corrective action depending on the nature of the issue.

PACKAGE COMPRISING AN IMAGE SENSOR FOR CAPTURING IMAGES OF AN OBJECT INSIDE THE PACKAGE, AND AN EXTERNAL SCREEN FOR DISPLAYING THE IMAGES CAPTURED BY THE SENSOR
20230040344 · 2023-02-09 · ·

A package intended to contain at least one object includes a box; a lid which can adopt, with the box, a closed package configuration or an open package configuration, a device for detecting the closed or open package configurations, at least one image sensor relating to said object(s), at least one electronic display device accessible from the exterior of the package, a computing unit, intended to receive images from the image sensor and to transmit to the electronic display device instructions to display said images, means for triggering the image sensor, and

the triggering means are presented on an external facade of the package, the computing unit is connected to the detection device and is parameterized to authorize a display of the images from the image sensor in the closed package configuration and, conversely, prohibit the display in the open package configuration.

PROCESSES AND METHODS FOR MOVING OR STORING WASTE CONTAINING HAZARDOUS COMPONENTS
20230038626 · 2023-02-09 · ·

In preferred embodiments, the present disclosure relates to methods for transportation of hazardous waste and/or waste classified under TSCA, and may comprise the acts of: translocating at least one intermodal trailer chassis from a primary terrestrial site to a first stationary barge, wherein said trailer chassis is carrying an intermodal shipping container containing the waste material, and wherein the first stationary barge is adapted to rise and fall with changes to the water level; moving the intermodal trailer chassis carrying the intermodal shipping container from the first stationary barge to a mobile barge adapted to traverse the body of water; traversing the body of water with the mobile barge; and offloading the at least one intermodal trailer chassis carrying the intermodal shipping container to a secondary terrestrial site via a second stationary barge.

METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR MANAGING PRESCRIPTIONS

Methods and systems for classifying and editing insurance claims records are described. In one embodiment, a method, which can be performed by a processor, includes determining that a first prescription drug prescribed to a first patient should be filled by a pharmacy, determining a first guidepost date and a second guidepost date related to the first prescription, determining a third guidepost date associated with a second prescription, comparing the third guidepost date to the first and second guidepost dates to determine whether the third guidepost date occurs after the first guidepost date and before the second guidepost date, and filling and dispensing the first prescription drug as a full prescription supply and the second prescription drug as a full prescription supply on the same dispense date when the third guidepost date occurs after the first guidepost date and before the second guidepost date.

INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM

An information processing device determines, based on location information of a plurality of delivery destinations for package delivery: one or a plurality of first delivery destinations for package delivery by a vehicle; and one or a plurality of second delivery destinations for package delivery by a drone mounted on the vehicle.
