Abstract: The invention is directed to a Method for detecting differentiated hematopoietic cells comprising the steps: a) isolation of undifferentiated hematopoietic stem cells in groups of 1-1000 cells on a support b) proliferating the isolated cells to form cell colonies of differentiated hematopoietic cells by providing cell media comprising a growth factor c) contacting the cell colonies with one or more marker conjugates comprising at least one detection moiety and at least one antigen recognizing moiety against CD14, CD235a and CD15 d) detecting the relative amount of differentiated hematopoietic stem cells in a cell colony labelled with the marker conjugates.

Abstract: A navigation system is provided with various interlinked facilities, including a user I/O facility, a route planning facility and a position determining facility. In particular, the navigation system is arranged to physically interface to a data communication facility pertaining to organizer device. An embodiment of such system includes the navigation system arranged to signal actual route data to said organizer device for consideration in a preexistent timetable or diary context. Such system is preferably characterized in that said organizer device is arranged to signal actual diary or timetable data to said navigation system for consideration in a preexistent or future route scheme context.

Abstract: In a method for displaying primary and secondary information in a motor vehicle by reproducing symbols on a display, the symbols are shown with different brightnesses according to their importance. Their brightness is changed as the importance of the information changes.

Abstract: In an automotive vehicle a road map is displayed that features an indicator of the actual vehicle orientation and position. Such orientation and position are on a long term basis maintained steady with respect to a display field. In particular, a geographical window is set up regarding actual movements of the vehicle. It is checked whether the vehicle remains inside or outside of the window. If inside, the movements are displayed while at least partially suppressing the maintaining. If outside, the movements are displayed while substantially upholding such maintaining.

Abstract: A description is given of a radio receiver, in particular a VHF receiver, including a receiver stage, an evaluation stage, a memory stage, an operating element, a display element and a control unit. A database of stations which meet predetermined receiving criteria is stored by the control unit in the memory stage. Updating this database is subject to different preconditions, and requires only one receiver stage. The operating element can be used to call the desired stations from the database, in a sequence determined in accordance with different criteria, and these stations can be set to reproduce the radio signals.

Abstract: A description is given of a system for menu-driven instruction input, comprisinga control unit,a display unit which is controlled by the control unit and which serves to display, by means of symbols, at least one instruction-selection list (menu), which includes a number of instructions and/or sub-selection lists (submenus), each submenu including instructions and/or further submenus, and a submenu or an instruction to be carried out or to perform a further selection being selectable from the menu or submenu by a user, andan operating unit connected to the control unit, whereby actuation of said operating unit by the user causes menus, submenus or instructions to be selected and/or executed.To enable a simple and ergonomically favorable operation, the operating unit comprises two selection keys and an execution key.

Abstract: A navigation system (100) includes a vehicle position determining module (110) for determining the current position of the vehicle and a planning module (114) for planning a route between the current position and a desired destination. The navigation system (100) further includes a guidance module (118) for presenting guidance information to guide the driver along the planned route. The navigation system (100) is arranged to detect when the vehicle has left the planned route and to deactivate the guidance module (118) when the vehicle has left the planned route.

Abstract: A electronic apparatus reproduces information stored on information discs in accordance with a first standard and in accordance with at least a second standard. The electronic apparatus can be controlled by first control information in accordance with a first format, and a converter circuit converts the first control information when using an information disc in accordance with the second information-disc standard, into second control information in accordance with a second format. Thus, the electronic apparatus can be controlled by means of the first control information both when information discs in accordance with the first standard are played.
