Abstract: A sound emission arrangement, having a seat that has a backrest surface and a headrest surface, where the sound emission arrangement has at least one first and one second actuator for vibration excitation, where each of the two actuators is arranged in the seat, so that the first and the second actuator are each arranged with their excitation surface on the inner side of a covering of the headrest surface or the inner side of a covering of the backrest surface at substantially the same height.

Abstract: A device for generating an additional reset force on the gas pedal for motor vehicles, wherein a position change of the gas pedal relative to the initial position thereof, induced by a corresponding actuating force, against a reset force leads to an increase in the motive power of the engine and, when there is a decrease in the actuating force, a reset force moves the gas pedal back in the direction of the initial position thereof, and wherein an actuator is provided, which applies an additional reset force that acts in the reset direction of the gas pedal, and wherein the motor vehicle has a unit for determining the shifting point of a manually shifted transmission. Moreover, the invention relates to a method for operating the device according to the invention.

Abstract: A sensor arrangement for capturing the coefficient of friction from a roadway surface, wherein the sensor arrangement is arranged on a motor vehicle and includes at least one radiation emitter unit and at least one electronic evaluation circuit, wherein the radiation emitter unit emits electromagnetic radiation toward the roadway surface and the radiation is at least to some extent reflected and/or scattered at the roadway surface and the reflected and/or scattered radiation is at least to some extent captured in the radiation emitter unit and/or in one or more additional sensor units, wherein the electronic evaluation circuit is designed such that it ascertains a piece of coefficient-of-friction information for the roadway surface from the intensity of the reflected and/or scattered radiation or a variable which is dependent thereon.

Abstract: A method is presented for recognizing traffic-related information (I) in a driving motor vehicle, in which sensor data (B) from a sensor and map data (K) from a navigation system are interpreted for recognition purposes, wherein the sensor data (B) is inspected in a first scene interpretation for the presence of traffic-related information (I) and is compacted to relevant sensor data (Br), the map data (K) is inspected in a second scene interpretation for the presence of traffic-related information (I) and is compacted to relevant map data (Kr), and the relevant sensor data (Br) and relevant map data (Kr) is fed to a regulator for interpreting the sensor and map data, wherein the regulator evaluates the sensor data (Br) and the map data (Kr) and then issues an output signal which corresponds to the evaluation.
