Abstract: The present invention relates to a container system (200) for storing an intraocular lens (90). The container system (200) comprises a container (210) for storing a lens (90) and a heating device (220) for heating the lens (90) in the container (210). A heated lens (90) is more supple and can be rolled up better and smaller, such that a cut opening in an eye can be further reduced.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a self-accommodating lens, which is formed in particular as a contact lens. The lens includes a lens body configured to be placed onto or into an eye of a patient. A plurality of actuators are arranged in a star-shaped manner on the front side of the lens body. The angle to an adjacent lens is determined by detection of a directional radio signal.

Abstract: An injector system for implanting an intraocular lens into an eye includes an injector body having a front end and a rear end; a cannula arranged at the front end, which provides a transport channel for a lens to be implanted, wherein a lens can be fed into the transport channel; a magazine with a receptacle area for a lens which is securable in the receptacle area with a retainer, wherein the magazine is arranged so that a lens can be fed into the transport channel; a folding body insertable into the magazine and into the inlet opening, for pushing the lens into the transport channel so that the lens is at least partially foldable around the folding body; and a slider arranged in the injector body, and which can be pushed into the transport channel via the front end so that the lens can be ejected from the transport channel.

Abstract: An integrated monitoring system for a vehicle including a brake pad wear sensor and a wheel speed sensor. A wheel speed sensor signal line is connected between the wheel speed sensor and an electronic control unit. A wheel speed power line is connected between the wheel speed sensor, the brake pad wear sensor, and the electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to monitor the wheel speed sensor signal line for a signal indicative of a wheel speed and monitors the wheel speed power line for a signal indicative of a brake pad condition.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a lens with variable refraction power as well as an optical system for the use as, preferably accommodating, visual aid. The lens is designed as an intraocular lens or as a contact lens. The general idea of the invention is to determine the accommodation requirement from the position of the eyes relative to one another. This is possible, since the accommodation requirement and the eyes' motor activity are closely related.

Abstract: A circuit arrangement, having a circuit and a computer unit is provided, in which the circuit and the computer unit are connected to one another via multiple lines for transmitting a number of signals which are embodied as information signals. The circuit has a multiplexer for combining signals, the multiplexer being connected to the computer unit via an additional line.

Abstract: Movement of an object within an ultrasound volume may be tracked by acquiring at least first and second volumes of ultrasound data comprising imaging data representing an anatomical structure within a patient and at least a portion of an object. The second volume is acquired at a time subsequent to the first volume. A first relationship is identified between the object and the anatomical structure on a first image that is based on the first volume. A second relationship is identified between the object and the anatomical structure on a second image that is based on the second volume. Movement of the object is determined based on at least one of the first and second relationships.

Abstract: A method and a device for detecting the phase of a four-stroke gasoline engine, a gasoline direct injection engine in particular. For reliable phase detection involving relatively little expense during a starting phase, a crankshaft is turned together with at least one piston; ignition is triggered via an ignition coil in at least two successive top dead centers of the piston without a supply of fuel. A primary current or a secondary current, or a primary voltage or a secondary voltage are measured in a measuring period which extends at least over a spark duration after the ignition. From the comparison of the measuring signals of successive ignitions, a conclusion is drawn as to which of the successive top dead centers is an ignition top dead center and which is a charge cycle top dead center.
