Abstract: The invention relates to recording material for dye sublimation printing comprising base paper (1) having a front and a rear side, at least one synthetic resin layer (4) on at least the rear side of the base paper (1), a dye-receiving layer (2) which is arranged on the front side of the base paper (1), at least one plastic film (3) which is arranged between the base paper (1) and the dye-receiving layer (2) and optionally a barrier layer which is arranged between the plastic film (3) and the dye-receiving layer (2), wherein the synthetic resin layer (4) has an elastic modulus of at least 0.8 GPa.

Abstract: A method for controlling longitudinal dynamics in a motor vehicle during an autonomous driving operation, where the presence of a front vehicle traveling ahead of the vehicle is ascertained with the aid of a surround sensor system; ascertaining at least one longitudinal dynamics variable of the front vehicle, which describes the longitudinal vehicle dynamics of the front vehicle, with the aid of the surround sensor system; and ascertaining at least one variable, which is used in a brake control system of the motor vehicle, as a function of the longitudinal dynamics variable of the front vehicle.

Abstract: A blood testing apparatus has a test member and a laser source configured to produce a wound from which blood flows. The laser source produces at least a cutting wavelength, and a coagulation wavelength. Electronics for analysis and a display are provided. The test member, laser source, electronics and display form a glucose monitoring system that is integrated in a single apparatus.

Abstract: A blood testing apparatus includes a device for withdrawing blood, a membrane-type testing element, an evaluating device, and a display device forming a complete system which can be manipulated as a single piece of apparatus. Multiple testing elements can be inserted into the apparatus and brought successively to a work position for carrying out several measurements. The blood withdrawing device includes multiple pricking elements. One pricking element is pushed through one testing element and pricks the surface of the skin of a user. The pricking position is disposed so that blood withdrawn from the surface of the skin can impinge upon the testing element.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sensor for detecting substance concentration or activity or for determining the presence of substances based on electrochemical reactions. The electrochemical sensor comprises an electrode with surfaces inside the electrode, wherein electrochemical detection reactions occur. Said sensor guarantees high flow densities and is suitable for miniaturization. A substance-recognizing agent is advantageously placed in the electrode in contact with the inner surfaces. This enables not only short response times and long service life but also measurements with excellent linearity.

Abstract: A vertical strip storage system has a support structure and a storage car connected to the support structure by cables in the fashion of a pulley block so as to be lifted and lowered relative to the support structure. The storage car is provided with a counterweight and with deflection pulleys which deflect and guide an incoming and/or outgoing strip in cooperation with stationary deflection pulleys on the ground. The support structure is a free-standing column without lateral supports and the storage car is a salient vehicle running on the outer surface of the column, wherein the column has an interior and the counterweight is guided in the interior of the column.
