Cyngn Secures its 22nd U.S. Patent: for its AI-Powered Autonomous Vehicle Technologies
MENLO PARK, Calif., April 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Cyngn Inc. (the "Company" or "Cyngn") (Nasdaq: CYN) announced the official granting of a new patent, 12,246,733, for the Company's innovative autonomous vehicle (AV) solutions.
The patent, System and Methods of Off-Board Centric Autonomous Driving Computation, introduces a cloud-based approach to autonomous vehicle operation, distributing computing tasks between the vehicle and the cloud to significantly reduce onboard hardware requirements. Vehicles transmit sensor data to cloud servers, where functions like environment mapping, decision-making, and route planning are processed before driving commands are sent back for execution. This allows the vehicle to prioritize safety-critical and time-sensitive functions.
The significance of this patent lies in its ability to enable lighter, more cost-effective autonomous vehicles while enabling sophisticated driving algorithms. Furthermore, the patent includes fleet management functionality, facilitating seamless coordination of multiple autonomous vehicles through a centralized cloud infrastructure.
"Since August 2023, we've been granted twelve additional patents, bringing our total to 22 U.S. patents," said Lior Tal, CEO of Cyngn. "This milestone reflects our ongoing commitment to driving innovation and advancing autonomous technology, as we continue to build out a robust patent portfolio to protect our intellectual property. Each new patent represents the hard work of our team and our dedication to developing real-world solutions that are transforming material handling."
The grant of this patent marks a significant milestone in Cyngn's intellectual property strategy, further bolstering its position in the AV industry. This success follows Cyngn's recent patent issuance announcement of its 21st patent.
Cyngn provides its customers a seamless way to adopt self-driving technology into their operations without high upfront costs.

This new patent of System and Methods of Off-Board Centric Autonomous Driving Computation enables autonomous vehicles to operate with reduced onboard computing hardware by offloading heavy computing tasks to the cloud. The vehicles send sensor data to cloud servers, which handle complex tasks like environment mapping, decision-making, and route planning. The cloud then sends back driving commands to the vehicle for execution, which allows the vehicle to focus on safety-critical and time-sensitive functions.
The significance in this patent lies in the fact that it allows for lighter, more cost-effective autonomous vehicles while enabling more sophisticated and safer driving algorithms. Moreover, the patent also supports fleet management capabilities, allowing multiple vehicles to be coordinated through the same cloud infrastructure.

Why business schools need to teach character development
Programs to help students discern their vocation or calling are gaining prominence in higher education. According to a 2019 Bates/Gallup poll, 80% of college graduates want a sense of purpose from their work. In addition, a 2023 survey found that 50% of Generation Z and millennial employees in the U.K. and U.S. have resigned from a job because the values of the company did not align with their own. These sentiments are also found in today's business school students, as Gen Z is demanding that course content reflect the changes in society, from diversity and inclusion to sustainability and poverty. According to the Financial Times, 'there may never have been a more demanding cohort.' And yet, business schools have been slower than other schools to respond, leading to calls ranging from transforming business education to demolishing it. What are business schools creating? Historically, studies have shown that business school applicants have scored higher than their peers on the ' dark triad' traits of narcissism, psychopathy and Machiavellianism. These traits can manifest themselves in a tendency toward cunning, scheming and, at times, unscrupulous behavior. Over the course of their degree program, other studies have found that business school environments can amplify those preexisting tendencies while enhancing a concern for what others think of them. And these tendencies stick after graduation. One study examined 9,900 U.S. publicly listed firms and separated the sample by those run by managers who went to business school and those whose managers did not. While they found no discernible difference in sales or profits between the two samples, they found that labor wages were cut 6% over five years at companies run by managers who went to business school, while managers with no business degree shared profits with their workers. The study concludes that this is the result ' of practices and values acquired in business education.' But there are signs that this may be changing. Questioning value Today, many are questioning the value of the MBA. Those who have decided it is worth the high cost either complain of its lack of rigor, relevance and critical thinking or use it merely for access to networks for salary enhancement, treating classroom learning as less important than attending recruiting events and social activities. Layered onto this uncertain state of affairs, generative artificial intelligence is fundamentally altering the education landscape, threatening future career prospects and short-circuiting the student's education by doing their research and writing for them. This is concerning because of the outsized role that business leaders play in today's society: allocating capital, developing and deploying new technologies and influencing political and social debates. At times, this role is a positive one, but not always. Distrust follows that uncertainty. Only 16% of Americans had a 'great deal' or 'quite a lot' of confidence in corporations, while 51% of Americans between 18 and 29 hold a dim view of capitalism. Facing this reality, business educators are beginning to reexamine how to nurture business leaders who view business not only as a means to making money but also as a vehicle in service to society. Proponents such as Harry Lewis, former dean of Harvard College; Derek Bok, former president of Harvard University; Harold Shapiro, former president of Princeton University; and Anthony Kronman, former dean of the Yale Law School, describe this effort as a return to the original focus of a college education. Not ethics, but character formation Business schools have often included ethics courses in their curriculum, often with limited success. What some schools are experimenting with is character formation. As part of this experimentation is the development of a coherent moral culture that lies within the course curriculum but also within the cocurricular programming, cultural events, seminars and independent studies that shape students' worldviews; the selection, socialization, training and reward systems for students, staff and faculty; and other aspects that shape students' formation. Stanford's Bill Damon, one of the leading scholars on helping students develop a sense of purpose in life, describes a revised role for faculty in this effort, one of creating the fertile conditions for students to find meaning and purpose on their own. I use this approach in my course on vocation discernment in business, shifting from a more traditional academic style to one that is more developmental. This is relational teaching that artificial intelligence cannot do. It involves bringing the whole person into the education process, inspiring hearts as much as engaging heads to form competent leaders who possess character, judgment and wisdom. It allows an examination of both the how and the why of business, challenging students to consider what kind of business leader they aspire to be and what kind of legacy they wish to establish. It would mark a return to the original focus of early business schools, which, as Rakesh Khurana, a professor of sociology at Harvard, calls out in his book ' From Higher Aims to Hired Hands: The Social Transformation of American Business Schools and the Unfulfilled Promise of Management as a Profession,' was to train managers in the same vocational way we train doctors 'to seek the higher aims of commerce in service to society.' Reshaping business education Institute for Social Concerns and Bates College's Center for Purposeful Work and courses such as Stanford University's Designing Your Life and the University of Michigan's Management as a Calling. These are but a few examples of a growing movement. So, the building blocks are there to draw from. The student demand is waiting to be met. All that is needed is for more business schools to respond.
