  • Publication number: 20240187582
    Abstract: The present application relates to a method for verifying video data encoded in an encoder unit, wherein the encoder unit comprises a safe part and a non-safe part, wherein loop filtering in the encoder unit is disabled, and wherein the method (1) comprises the steps of: Acquiring video data in the safe part of the encoder unit (2,11,21); Encoding the acquired video data by a non-safe encoder in the non-safe part of the encoder unit (3,12,22); Decoding the encoded video data by a non-safe decoder in the non-safe part of the encoder unit (4,13,23); and Comparing the decoded video data with the acquired video data in the safe part of the encoder unit using at least one comparison algorithm (5,14,24), wherein if the decoded video data does not match the acquired video data exactly nor within an acceptable threshold for the comparison a safety focused reaction is initiated, and if the decoded video data matches the acquired video data exactly or within the acceptable threshold for the comparison a first safety

  • Publication number: 20240187632
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for verifying image data encoded in an encoder unit, wherein the encoder unit comprises a safe part and a non-safe part, and wherein the method (1) comprises the steps of: Acquiring image data in the safe part of the encoder unit (2); Encoding the acquired image data by a non-safe encoder in the non-safe part of the encoder unit (3); Decoding the encoded image data by a non-safe decoder in the non-safe part of the encoder unit (4); and Comparing the decoded image data with the acquired image data in the safe part of the encoder unit (5), wherein if the decoded image data does not match the acquired image data exactly nor within an acceptable threshold for the comparison a safety focused reaction is initiated, and wherein if the decoded image data matches the acquired image data exactly or within the acceptable threshold for the comparison a first safety sequence is generated based on the decoded image data in the safe part of the encoder unit and the encoded image

  • Patent number: 10152952
    Abstract: A method for the safe visualization of a safety-relevant information includes the steps of: for all possible states of at least one variable input parameter, decomposing a safe visualization of the at least one variable input parameter into its safe base elements (31); for each of the decomposed safe base elements, enumerating and storing a set of all possible states of safe base element visualization (32); and for each of the decomposed safe base elements, transmitting the set of all possible states of safe base element visualization to a target system that provides safe visualization at runtime (33).
