A first image (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) representing a first part of an environment of a motor vehicle (1) and generated by a first camera (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) of the motor vehicle (1) and a second image (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) representing a second part of the environment of the motor vehicle (1) and generated by a second camera (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) of the motor vehicle (1) are received. A stitched image (8) is generated depending on the first image (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) and the second image (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d). An artifact (14) in the stitched image (8), which represents a component of the motor vehicle (1), is detected. An improved stitched image (12) is generated, wherein the artifact (14) is removed at least in part by applying a machine learning model, MLM, (11) trained for image inpainting to input data comprising the stitched image (8).

The invention is directed at a cooling device (12) for cooling an electronic component (20) of an electronic assembly (10) of a motor vehicle (42), wherein the cooling device (12) comprises a cooling channel bed (40) for circulating a cooling liquid. The cooling channel bed (40) is formed within a cavity (28), which is at least partially confined by a base plate (24) of the cooling device (12) and by a housing cap (14.1) of a housing (14) of the electronic assembly (10), wherein the housing cap (14.1) comprises a cap plate (14.1.1) and a cap rim (14.1.2), which extends at an angle from the cap plate (14.1.1), wherein for sealing the cavity (28), the base plate (24) and the housing cap (14.1) are connected to one another in a fluid-tight manner on an inner surface of the cap rim (14.1.2).

The invention is directed at a connector (10) for connecting a cooling plate (22) to a coolant circuit, the cooling plate (22) being arranged inside a housing (20) of a device to be cooled. The connector (10) comprises a tubular outer peripheral surface (18) having a first axial end portion (12) with a first annular bead (32), which can be connected to the coolant circuit. The connector (10) comprises a second axial end portion (14) with a second annular bead (36), wherein in an arrangement of the connector (10) in which it is inserted through an opening (30) of the housing (20) into a coupling portion (28) of the cooling plate (22), the second annular bead (36) bears against a wall portion of the housing (20) in the area of the opening (30) and shields the opening (30) against an environment of the housing (20).

The invention relates to a camera (4) for a motor vehicle (1), having a housing (9), the housing (9) delimiting a receiving space (12) in which a lens module (16) of the camera (4) is arranged in certain regions, the camera (4) having a longitudinal axis (A), and having a heater for heating the lens module (16), the heater being an IR heater (15).
