Ok it's Kristinn Gudjonsson, I really mucked that one up repeatedly in every way possible

Waymo tries to ask Brown if it was "appropriate" for Levandowski to put the files on the memory card, Uber objects. ALSUP: You ask questions like ‘Don’t you think it would be a good idea,’ that’s the same thing. Uber lets it go.

Witness is excused, William Grossman is being sworn in.

Grossman has been at Google in 2014, when Waymo was still the Chauffeur Project. It's clear why Waymo picked him as a witness — he's a NorCal native, went to high school, college, and grad school here, he still lives in Palo Alto. What a nice local boy etc

He works on embedded systems, which he describes as "low level software combined with low level hardware"
Afficher cette discussion -
At Waymo he is works with the SDS (self-driving systems) architecture group. He does not work LIDAR but he has worked with LIDAR teams in the past.

He's asked to define a PCB. (a printed circuit board, "the basis of almost all modern electronics").

Ah wait actually Grossman was the one who got the mistake email that set off this whole thing
Afficher cette discussion -
He received a Dec 13 2016 email from Gorilla Circuits dot com (which makes PCBs), subject "FW: OTTO FILES"

It was a “bap package” (???? someone confirm please) -- everything you need to manufacture that specific PCB
Afficher cette discussion -
I think we're now getting an exhibit that's under seal, a 2D specification of the package

Also WHY are my followers so skewed towards software with so few in hardware, help a girl out
Afficher cette discussion -
It's a GDR -- a transmit board that's one of the many PCBs that make up LIDAR, it shoots out the lasers

Btw this is an important moment: we're finally glimpsing the substance of Waymo's case

we never found out what yak shaves dot com was btw

After receving the email, Grossman escalated to manager
Afficher cette discussion -
Grossman then showed Pierre ? to see if that schematic was their circuit board. Then they escalated to Dmitri Dolgov.
Afficher cette discussion -
They're being careful to establish that Grossman only showed the email to a limited number of people -- it's a trade secret and they're taking reasonable care to protect it, etc

Uber brings up a patent and asks about 3 flat sides and a concave side — then compares to sealed exhibit, also has 3 flat sides and concave side

We're now wrangling which screens get to show which exhibits ALSUP: Okay, Angie make sure that... wait it was up on the screen and now it's gone again, what are you doing to me?

ALSUP: Your technical people are supposed to set it up — they have failed us. Someone has failed us. If you can’t get it up yourself, too bad.

On redirect Waymo asks witness if there are differences between the patent and the trade secret spec. Grossman says: - Structure is not uniform, in the patent it’s much more uniform. - Angles of the edges are very specific and there’s a flow, angles are all the same on patent.

Jury has been excused so that they can figure out what's going on with the technical issues with projection. Alsup has called all the technicians and says "no games are going to be played" and that both sides need to cooperate and work together promptly

He says there's too much of a delay between saying they're going to show a depo and the depo showing. "45 seconds is too long. It has to be 1 second."

(I'm not sure the parties were actually messing with each other by being slow about the slides & projections during the proceedings, I think it's just normal A/V difficulties)

Uber wants to show the side-by-side exhibits (the Gorilla circuits email and the '96 patent) that were withheld from the public.
