  • Patent number: 12105254
    Abstract: A dust-proof covering element is provided to close a projection aperture located in the dashboard of a vehicle and through which the information-carrying source light beam projected by the projecting module of a head-up display device passes on its way to a partially reflective return element. The covering element comprises a transparent carrier and an optical coating placed on one of the faces of the carrier; wherein, the optical coating comprises a metal layer with plasmonic properties, said metal layer being endowed with an array of subwavelength nanoperforations, and being configured to allow the extraordinary transmission of one or more restricted bands of wavelengths of the visible spectrum that are centered on the one or more wavelengths of the light beam projected by the projecting module.

  • Patent number: 12032035
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method, implemented in a management system of an electric battery of a vehicle, for estimating the resistive state of health of at least one electrical energy storage element, the method comprising the next steps: —determining (10) at least one operating range for which the direct current resistance of the element changes linearly with respect to the state of charge of the element and to temperature; —measuring (14) the variation in the strength and the voltage of an electric current generated by the element during a running phase of the vehicle; —calculating (16), based on the measured values of variation in strength and voltage, at least one direct current resistance value of the element; and —calculating (18) at least one value of the resistive state of health of the element based on the calculated direct current resistance value.

  • Patent number: 12030492
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for determining a deceleration setpoint value of an autonomous vehicle (204), the autonomous vehicle (204) comprising an adaptive cruise control capable of decelerating the autonomous vehicle according to a first deceleration setpoint (215), referred to as standard deceleration, the autonomous vehicle (204) traveling along a first lane (201) at a first speed, the vehicle heading into a second lane (202) subject to a speed limit (208) at a distance, D, relative to the beginning (203) of the second lane (202), said method comprising the steps wherein: —a necessary deceleration is calculated; —the deceleration setpoint of the autonomous vehicle (204) is determined; —the adaptive cruise control applies the deceleration setpoint thus determined in order to decelerate the autonomous vehicle (204) from the beginning (203) of the second lane (202).
