An electromechanical assembly (10) includes a generally planar printed circuit board (PCB) (16), an electrical terminal (18) electrically and mechanically connected to the PCB (16) and projecting from a major surface of the PCB (16), and a housing (14) formed of a dielectric material having a base portion (30) and a terminal portion (32). The terminal portion (32) defines a cavity (26) and the electrical terminal (18) is disposed within this cavity (26). The terminal portion (32) is disposed within a aperture (52) that is defined by the base portion (30). The electromechanical assembly (10) defines a gap (54) between the base portion (30) and the terminal portion (32). The terminal portion (32) is connected to the base portion (30) by a pair of flexible beams (56) which may have a serpentine or ogee curve shape (58, 60, 62), each of which is attached between one of two opposed sides of the base portion (30) and the terminal portion (32).

A method of estimating an orientation of a camera relative to a surface, wherein a camera coordinate system is defined and a normal vector normal to the surface is represented by three components in the camera coordinate system, the method comprising: providing a first image and a subsequent second image captured by the camera; selecting a first point from the first image and a second point from the second image, wherein the first and second points represent the same object; defining a first optical flow vector connecting the first point and the second point; carrying out a first estimation step comprising estimating two components of the normal vector in the camera coordinate system by using the first optical flow vector and restricting parameter space to only the two components of the normal vector, wherein a linear equation system derived from a homography matrix that represents a projective transformation between the first image and the second image is provided and the two components of the normal vector in the camera coordinate system are estimated by solving the linear equation system; and determining the orientation of the camera relative to the surface using the results of the first estimation step.

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein elektrisches Anschlusselement, welches als Stanzteil aus einem Metallblech gefertigt ist und zumindest eine frei auskragende Zunge aufweist, die aus der Blechebene auf eine erste Seite des Blechs herausgebogen ist und sich in einer zur Blechebene parallelen Ebene erstreckt. Das Anschlusselement weist zwei in Steckrichtung des Anschlusselements frei auskragende Finger auf, welche sich parallel zu der zumindest einen frei auskragenden Zunge in der Blechebene erstrecken, wobei die beiden frei auskragenden Finger in Steckrichtung das vordere Ende des Anschlusselements bilden.

The present invention refers to an exchangeable crimping die insert for a crimping die for crimping electrical contact terminals to electrical cables. The exchangeable crimping die insert comprises at least two essentially identical crimp profiles integrated in one part. Furthermore, the exchangeable crimping die insert comprises at least one indicator means to differentiate the at least two essentially identical crimp profiles.

A multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna (520) for a radar system includes a receive antenna (520), a first transmit-antenna-arrangement (822), and a second transmit-antenna-arrangement (824). The receive-antenna (120) is configured to detect radar-signals (920) reflected by a target toward the receive-antenna (120). The first transmit-antenna-arrangement (822) includes a first vertical-array (870) of radiator elements (136) and a second vertical-array (872) of radiator elements (136). The first transmit-antenna-arrangement (822) is configured so the first vertical-array (870) can be selectively coupled to a transmitter (910) independent of the second vertical-array (872). The second transmit-antenna-arrangement (824) includes a third vertical-array (874) of radiator elements (136) and a fourth vertical-array (876) of radiator elements (136). The second transmit-antenna-arrangement (824) is configured so the third vertical-array (874) can be selectively coupled to a transmitter (910) independent of the fourth vertical-array (876). The second transmit-antenna-arrangement (824) is vertically offset from the first transmit-antenna-arrangement (822) by a vertical offset distance (126) selected so an elevation angle to the target can be determined by the receive-antenna (120).

A safety system (10) and a method (100) configured to determine whether a passenger compartment (14) of a vehicle (16) is occupied whether the temperature of the passenger compartment (14) is outside an acceptable temperature range, and to take a safety countermeasure if needed. An occupant (12) is detected by sounds received by an audio transducer (24) within the passenger compartment (14) connected to an infotainment system (22). The temperature is detected by a temperature sensor (26) connected to the heating, ventilation and air condition system of the vehicle (16). Example safety countermeasures include activating the horn (40), transmitting a wireless signal indicating that an unattended occupant (12) is in the vehicle (16) to a remote wireless receiver, and/or at least partially opening a vehicle window (44). A pair of high frequency speakers (24C, 24D) connected to the infotainment system (22) may be used to transmit and receive ultrasonic signals so that an occupant (12) may be detected using ultrasonic motion detection techniques.

Electrical terminal (30) for automotive vehicle connectors comprising cage (34) extending in a terminal insertion direction (D) between a front opening (35) and tail (31). A locking lance (36) extends longitudinally substantially in the insertion direction (D) above the top wall from a joint (39) to a free end (38). The locking lance (36) is astride an intermediate bar (60) which extends substantially along the insertion direction (D) from a front portion (61) to a rear portion (62) respectively linked to the front end and the rear end of the cage (34).

Ein Verfahren zur Steuerung einer Pulsweitenmodulation mittels eines Datenbusses umfasst eine Übertragung von Daten, welche Ein- und Ausschaltzeiten der Pulsweitenmodulation steuern, wobei in einer Pulsweitenmodulationsperiode zunächst ein Ein- oder ein Ausschaltsignal für das Pulsweitenmodulationssignal übertragen wird und dann ein Triggersignal zur Invertierung des Pulsweitenmodulationskanals an einen Schaltzeitpunkt in der Pulsweitenmodulationsperiode übertragen wird.
