  • Patent number: 10976133
    Abstract: A device for adjusting a reticle, comprising: —an adjustable reticle, —an adjusting means set up to adjust the reticle, wherein the adjusting means includes an adjustment actuation element, movably mounted in an adjustment movement degree of freedom, —a blocking means assigned to the adjusting means set up to block movements of the adjustment actuation element, wherein the blocking means includes a blocking element transferrable into a blocking position, in which this effects that movements of the adjustment actuation element are blocked in the adjustment movement degree of freedom, and into an unblocking position, in which this effects that movements of the adjustment actuation element are not blocked in the adjustment movement degree of freedom, wherein the blocking element, in the blocking position, cooperates frictionally with the adjustment actuation element or with a component of the adjusting means coupled with the adjustment actuation element.

  • Patent number: 7791527
    Abstract: A method and device for object detection in the case of a vehicle equipped with an object-detection system, the object-detection system emitting electromagnetic radiation and receiving radiation reflected off objects within the detection range, and the radiation reflected off a detected object, which was additionally reflected off an object extending along the roadway, is analyzed. The analysis consists of a plausibilization in which the directly measured object reflections are verified using the indirect object reflections, or in that the analysis consists of utilizing the indirect object reflections for the further object detection if reflections from a previously detected object are no longer measurable.
