Abstract: In some embodiments, techniques for initiating over-the-air software updates for a vehicle using a mobile computing device are provided. In some embodiments, the vehicle and the mobile computing device each communicate with a server computing system, but do not communicate directly with each other for software update functionality. The vehicle transmits messages indicating one or more vehicle state conditions to the server computing system. The mobile computing device receives messages indicating one or more vehicle state conditions from the server computing system, and presents an interface for initiating the software update in response to determining that the vehicle state conditions indicate that the vehicle is ready for a software update. The mobile computing device transmits a command to the server computing system to cause the software update to be initiated on the vehicle, and the server computing system transmits the command to the vehicle.

Abstract: A multilayer conductive system of metal oxides, the system including a substrate; a layer of a crystalline binary metal oxide deposited on the substrate, and a layer of a crystalline conductive metal oxide having a crystalline structure of perovskite type superposed over the layer of binary metal oxide, where the binary metal oxide of the layer has a local lattice mismatch of less than 5% with respect to that of the metal oxide of the layer, provided that when the metal oxide of perovskite type of the layer is a crystalline transparent conductive metal oxide, the substrate is transparent, and the thickness of the crystalline binary metal oxide layer is <20 nm, preferably <10 nm, most preferentially 5-7 nm.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a charging, fueling, or service recess system for a vehicle. The charging, fueling, or service recess system includes at least one terminal region or connecting region on which a charging plug or an operating fluid valve can be connected, as required, and a recess body cover with an actuator, said actuator being configured to transfer the recess body cover, as required, from its closed position into its open position and, where relevant, vice versa. The charging, fueling, or service recess system includes a contactlessly operating sensor system which is configured to detect the presence of a charging plug or an operating fluid valve in a detection region which has previously been specified, or can be specified and which surrounds the recess body cover.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a multilayer conductive system of metal oxides comprising: i. a substrate; ii. a layer of a crystalline binary metal oxide deposited on the substrate (i); and iii. a layer of a crystalline conductive metal oxide having a crystalline structure of perovskite type superposed over the layer of binary metal oxide (ii); the binary metal oxide of the layer (ii) having a local lattice mismatch of less than 5% with respect to that of the metal oxide of the layer (iii); provided that when the metal oxide of perovskite type of the layer (iii) is a crystalline transparent conductive metal oxide, the substrate (i) is transparent and the thickness of the crystalline binary metal oxide layer (ii) is <20 nm, preferably <10 nm, most preferentially 5-7 nm.

Abstract: An on-board vehicle computer system receives a software update package from a remote computer system via a wireless communication network. The update package includes a software update for an updatable electronic component (e.g., an ECU) of the vehicle. Prior to installing the update, the vehicle computer system may check for a valid backup software version in a storage medium in the vehicle computer system to facilitate reversion to a previous software version in the event of an error during installation of the update. Installation of the update may be delayed until a compatible backup software version is obtained. After installation of the update, the system stores the update in the storage medium as the current backup software version for the updatable electronic component. This facilitates roll-back to a functional state in the event of an error during a future update.
