20110277233 | Convertible Furniture Item - The present invention is directed to a furniture item having user-support frames that are convertible between a seat configuration and a bed configuration. In one embodiment, user-support frames include a head-support frame anchored by a link assembly to a furniture-item base and a back-support frame pivotably coupled to the head-support frame. The link assembly facilitates both pivoting and lateral shifting of the head-support frame relative to the furniture-item base. In the bed configuration, a cam and cam follower are disposed under the user-support frames, such that when the user-support frames laterally shift, the cam contacts the cam follower, thereby upwardly moving a junction at which user-support frames are hinged to one another. | 11-17-2011 |

20100187955 | Wheel-based propulsion system for vehicles - A wheel-based propulsion system for a vehicle that includes a stator device and a reaction device disposed on the wheel components of a vehicle. The stator device is structured to generate an electric and/or magnetic field that causes the reaction device to rotate and/or move relative thereto and about an axis of the wheel. The reaction device is securely attached to a rotating wheel-based component in order to impart its rotation thereto and thereby at least partially propel the wheel and therefore the vehicle. | 07-29-2010 |

20150199019 | GESTURE BASED IMAGE CAPTURING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE - An image capturing system for a vehicle captures an image of a target area based on a predefined gesture performed by an occupant of the vehicle. A gesture capture device determines a gesture position of a gesture, which is the predefined gesture, with respect to a reference point. An eye tracking device determines an eye position of the occupant based on a viewpoint of the occupant. A target area determination module determines a target vector extending from the eye position toward the gesture position and aligns an on-board camera with the target vector, such that the target vector passes through an image field-of-view of the on-board camera. The on-board camera captures an image of the target area which is within the image field-of-view, and the image is stored in a computer-readable medium. | 07-16-2015 |
