Abstract: Example embodiments presented herein are directed toward a seat assembly, and corresponding method, for seat retraction in a vehicle during an autonomous driving mode. Seat refraction is provided by detecting a user initiated input for the retraction. Thereafter, a front seat is refracted such that an occupant of the front seat is out of reach of at least one driving control input device, for example, a steering wheel, pedals or a gear shift, during an autonomous driving mode. Such seat retraction prevents the occupant from providing inadvertent driving inputs to the driving control input devices during the autonomous driving mode.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a child seat for rearward-facing use in a vehicle. It comprises a back portion and a squab portion. The back portion comprises a force-receiving assembly, located at the shoulder region, which is of a more rigid material than a main portion of the back portion, the main portion being of a light-weight material. The force-receiving assembly comprises a first portion arranged at the first side of the back portion providing an anchor point for a shoulder portion of a child safety belt arrangement. The force-receiving assembly further comprises a second portion arranged at the second side of the back portion providing an anchor point for a child seat fixation means. The disclosure further relates to a child seat arrangement, a kit of parts and a vehicle comprising the child seat.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for connecting test bench elements (102a–102f), and a shell device, a test bench element shell (201) partially or completely surrounding a circuit unit (101) to be verified, so that test bench elements (102a–102f) can be connected to the test bench element shell (201). Test data streams (203a–203f) pass in each case between the test bench elements (102a–102f) and the test bench element shell (201), the test bench element shell (201) which surrounds the circuit unit (101) to be verified being connected via interface data streams (P0(0)–P0(7), P1(0)–P1(7), 204a, 204b, 204c) to the circuit unit (101) to be verified. The test bench element shell (201) ensures that in each case a specific protocol with associated operations can be executed, during which process, depending on the configuration, an interface exchanges interface data streams (P0(0)–P0(7), P1(0)–P1(7), 204a–204c) of the circuit unit (101) to be verified with the corresponding test bench element (102a–102f).

Abstract: A fault search method and apparatus for simplified use and control of fault search in a system with several different models such as, for example, a hardware model, a software program and a test bench model. A user activates a uniform debugger, which, in turn, retrieves and executes various subordinate debuggers that are each allocated to a different model. The subordinate debuggers then access the different models allocated to them for the performance of corresponding fault search operations.
