Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of controlling operation of a vibratory roller (1) comprising a roller drum (3) and a vibratory mechanism (2) having at least two amplitude settings. The method comprises operating the vibratory mechanism (2) in one of said at least two amplitude settings; maintaining a predefined phase angle by controlling the vibration frequency of the vibratory mechanism (2); monitoring a bouncing indication value (BIV), said bouncing indication value being calculated based on an acceleration signal indicative of the vertical acceleration of the roller drum (3); and turning off the vibratory mechanism (2) upon detection of a resonance meter value (BIV) that exceeds a predetermined bouncing value (BV), thereby preventing the vibratory roller from operating in a bouncing mode of operation.

Abstract: A shift-by-wire shift unit for shifting a transmission of a vehicle between R, N, D and P states includes a mono-stable selector element that can be moved in opposite directions. The transmission states R and D can be reached by moving the selector element horizontally from the mono-stable position in a first and a second, opposite direction, respectively. The shift unit also includes a separate input element for changing to transmission state N. The transmission state is changeable from D to R directly by moving the selector element in the first direction, and from R to D directly by moving the selector element in the second direction. The selector element also includes a button element, and the shift unit is arranged such that, when the vehicle is at rest and the transmission is in D or R, actuating the button element effects a change to the transmission state P.

Consecutive frames of image data at different times of the intruder utilizing at least one passive sensor are generated. A direction from the platform to the intruder is determined based on the generated consecutive frames of image data. A time period remaining until a potential collision between the platform and the intruder is estimated. An angular extent of the intruder, as viewed by the passive sensor, is estimated based on the image data. At least one of a first relative location vector to a minimum intruder associated with the intruder or a second relative location vector to a maximum intruder associated with the intruder is estimated.
