  • Patent number: 11687190
    Abstract: A multitouch touch device (DIS) employing capacitive detection, including: a touch matrix array and a first voltage-generating source configured to generate, for each row and each column of the matrix array, a first input voltage having a first frequency leading to the generation of a first output voltage. The device also includes a second voltage-generating source for generating, for each intersection between at least two rows and two columns of the matrix array, a second input voltage having a second frequency different from the first frequency leading to the generation of a second output voltage. A processing circuit is configured to determine, depending on first and second reference values, whether the first and second output voltages are representative of a press and of its position.

  • Publication number: 20220413183
    Abstract: A device for preventing, in real time, risk of atmospheric disturbance (DIS) for an aircraft in the air or on the ground includes acquisition means configured to acquire data corresponding to said risk. The device further includes design means configured to produce a predictive map of at least one critical area corresponding to at least one level of risk of disturbance that has been determined, and protection means (MP) configured to protect electronic components on board the aircraft which are liable to be damaged if the aircraft passes through said at least one critical area.

  • Patent number: 11226373
    Abstract: This method for determining a process noise covariance matrix for tuning an observer of the state-of-charge of a battery of electrical accumulators includes the steps of: determining, for each operating point of a set of operating points of the battery, a value of at least one component (R0, Z1) of an electrical model of the battery; obtaining, for each of said values, a determination error (r(SOCk)) for said component; storing the values of said component and the determination errors; calculating the standard deviation (?[r(SOC1 . . . p)]) for the determination errors for various operating points of the battery; and producing the covariance matrix (Q) on the basis of the calculated standard deviation.
