  • Patent number: 10682954
    Abstract: The operation of combinations of a vehicle and a trailer is to be rendered safer. For this purpose a method for reproducing images from backward cameras of a combination of a vehicle and a trailer is suggested. A first image (RV) from a first backward camera, which is arranged on the vehicle, and a second image (TR) from a second backward camera are simultaneously reproduced on a display unit in the vehicle. For the reproduction a predeterminable window (F) of the display unit is used in order to represent exclusively the second image (TR) from the second camera of the trailer.

  • Patent number: 10604555
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel peptides that are derivatives of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) analogues having improved physical stability in solution and a protracted profile of action. More particularly the invention relates to such peptides that are agonists at the GIP receptor and to their use in weight management or for treatment of diseases such as obesity, diabetes or non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The peptides comprise a lysine residue at a position corresponding to position 24 of hGIP(1-31), and comprise a negatively charged modifying group attached to the epsilon amino group of the lysine residue.

  • Publication number: 20200079164
    Abstract: A method operable in a towing vehicle for determining a state of a trailer being towed by said towing vehicle is disclosed. The vehicle comprises a front facing and a rear facing image capturing device and the method comprises determining respective distances of the rear facing image capturing device and the front facing image capturing device from a surface on which the vehicle lies. Responsive to one or both of: the distance of the rear image capturing device being outside a first threshold, and the distance of the front image capturing device being outside a second threshold, a value indicative the state of the towed trailer is output.
