Abstract: A method and a system for establishing a route of an unmanned aerial vehicle are provided. The method includes identifying an object from surface scanning data and shaping a space, which facilitates autonomous flight, as a layer, collecting surface image data for a flight path from the shaped layer, and analyzing a change in image resolution according to a distance from the object through the collected surface image data and extracting an altitude value on a flight route.

Abstract: A system for autonomously navigating a vehicle may include at least one processor. The processor may be programmed to receive a first navigational map associated with a first road segment and a second navigational map, different from the first navigational map, associated with a second road segment. The first road segment and the second road segment may overlap one another at an overlap segment. The processor may be programmed to determine at least a first autonomous navigational response for the vehicle along the first road segment based on analysis of the first navigational map; at least a second autonomous navigational response for the vehicle along the second road segment based on analysis of the second navigational map; and at least a third autonomous navigational response for the vehicle in the overlap segment based on at least one of the first navigational map and the second navigational map.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a cluster application generates navigation-related data based on observations received from vehicles. In operation, the cluster application computes an oriented distance between two observed object positions based on a heading, where each observed object position is associated with a different one of two observations. The cluster application then generates a cluster that includes the two observations based on the oriented distance. Subsequently, the cluster application computes an object position that is associated with the cluster based on the two observations. The cluster application transmits the object position and at least one characteristic associated with the observations to a update application that generates an update to a road database. Because the cluster application computes the object position based on multiple observations that are likely of a single object, the object position associated with the cluster may be more reliable than the observed object positions.

Abstract: A method for triggering a plurality of actuators of a safety system of a motor vehicle from an energy source, wherein, by using sensor signals, the requirement for triggering and the desired triggering time period are determined and a maximum group size of actuators to be triggered within a time window is predefined. For successive time windows, individual, at least partly different, maximum group sizes are respectively predefined and the maximum group size for the respective time window is determined adaptively by using the actuators already actually triggered in preceding time windows. Here, it is preferably also possible to take account of the situation in which different triggering time periods are predefined for actuators.

Abstract: A control system controls a construction machine that includes a work machine including a bucket having a plurality of tilting mechanisms. The control system includes: a tilt angle sensor that is provided in the bucket so as to detect tilt angle data including a rotation angle of the bucket about the tilt shaft, the tilt angle sensor being capable of detecting an inclination angle with respect to a horizontal plane; a data acquisition unit to which the tilt angle data is output from the tilt angle sensor; a data fixing unit that fixes the tilt angle data output to the data acquisition unit based on a fixing command to generate fixed data; and a work machine control unit that controls the work machine based on the fixed data until the fixing command is disabled.
