A photonic integrated circuit (PIC) chip comprising an array of modulated sources, each providing a modulated signal output at a channel wavelength different from the channel wavelength of other modulated sources and a wavelength selective combiner having an input optically coupled to received all the signal outputs from the modulated sources and provide a combined output signal on an output waveguide from the chip. The modulated sources, combiner and output waveguide are all integrated on the same chip.

An automatic transmission ratio shift and shift feel control system and method for a powertrain having an engine, multiple-ratio gearing controlled by friction elements actuated by hydraulic pressure, an output shaft torque sensor producing a signal representing the magnitude of current output torque, an electronic controller for controlling the target output torque based on the current output torque, increasing the torque capacity of the oncoming friction element and decreasing the torque capacity of the offgoing friction element after a gear ratio change is initiated. During the inertia phase of the ratio change, the controller controls the engine speed to follow a predetermined rate of change of input speed. The strategy employs an electronic throttle and closed loop engine torque control and closed loop engine speed control at various phases of the gear shift, to improve shift feel. Various engine parameters, including throttle position, ignition timing, engine air-fuel ratio, and engine airflow, control engine torque and speed, are used to control input torque or input speed, depending upon the shift phase.

A vehicular seat apparatus has a first slide rail unit including a first stationary rail and a first moving rail and a second slide rail unit including a second stationary rail and a second moving rail. Load sensors are provided between the seat cushion assembly and the moving rails. The first stationary rail and the second stationary rail are connected to each other by a rigid frame. The rigid frame can maintain the relative positions of the first and second slide rail units. Body mounting leg portions provided on the rigid frame are fixed to a seat mounting portion of a vehicle body.

A system and method for a head up display (HUD) can mitigate glare. The head up display can include a waveguide combiner including an input grating and an output grating and a glare mitigator disposed to prevent glare through the output grating from reaching an eye box. The glare mitigator can be a shade, a diffuser, a dimming element, or other device for mitigating glare. The glare mitigator can be an active or passive glare mitigator.
