  • Publication number: 20220144253
    Abstract: A method for controlling a safety device of a vehicle. The safety device reacts to an imminent collision of the vehicle with a collision object by an intervention in a longitudinal and/or lateral guidance of the vehicle. Environment data and trip data regarding the collision object and the vehicle, and intervention data regarding a planned intervention of the safety device, are read in. A first expected impingement point of the collision object on the vehicle is ascertained using the environment data and the trip data, and a second expected impingement point is ascertained using the environment data, the trip data, and the intervention data. A location of the first expected impingement point and of a location of the second expected impingement point relative to subregions referred to the vehicle are evaluated, using reference data. A control signal for the safety device is generated depending on a result of the evaluation.

  • Publication number: 20220144254
    Abstract: A method for controlling a safety device of a vehicle. The safety device reacts to an imminent collision by an intervention in a guidance of the vehicle. Environment data and trip data regarding the collision object and the vehicle, and intervention data regarding a planned intervention of the safety device, are read in. First and second expected impingement points of the collision object on the vehicle are ascertained; an uncertainty value of the impingement points is ascertained; and a probability value for a location of at least one of the impingement points relative to subregions referred to the vehicle, is ascertained using the uncertainty value. An evaluation of a location of the impingement points relative to the subregions is executed using the at least one probability value and reference data. S control signal for controlling the safety device is generated depending on a result of the evaluation.

  • Publication number: 20220144264
    Abstract: A method for controlling a safety device of a vehicle. The safety device reacts to an imminent collision by an intervention in a longitudinal and/or lateral guidance of the vehicle. The method includes reading in environment data and trip data regarding the collision object in an environment of the vehicle and the vehicle, and seat occupancy data regarding an occupancy state of at least one seat of the vehicle; ascertaining: an expected impingement side of the collision object on the vehicle; a velocity change of the vehicle in the context of the collision; and a seat occupancy distribution in the vehicle, using the seat occupancy data; executing an evaluation of the velocity change with regard to a threshold value and/or of the seat occupancy distribution relative to the expected impingement side; generating, depending on a result of the evaluation, a control signal for the safety device.

  • Patent number: 10851379
    Abstract: The present invention relates to immunomodulator compositions and methods of use as well as methods of making. The immunomodulator compositions comprise immunostimulatory plasmids, or DNA sequence, capable of eliciting an immune response in a recipient subject. Further, the immunostimulatory plasmids, or DNA sequence, do not contain antibiotic resistance coding sequence to help reduce the potential of horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance in a population.

  • Patent number: 9981400
    Abstract: An apparatus for slicing food products includes a product feed and an interleaver. The product feed is operable to supply products to a cutting plane in a plurality of tracks running in parallel next to one another. At least one cutting blade is moved in the cutting plane. The interleaver has a conveying device for each track that is operable to convey a front end region of an interleaved sheet material web through the cutting plane in each track to provide the front end region in the respective track as an interleaved sheet between cut-off product layers. The interleaver is operable individually per track and each conveying device is configured such that it conveys the respective front end region of the respective interleaved sheet material web through the cutting plane individually per track in dependence on an angular position of the cutting blade.
