  • Emergency braking system of a single-track vehicle
    Patent number: 11731595
    Abstract: An emergency braking system of a single-track vehicle configured to intervene in a braking process of the single-track vehicle includes a plurality of sensors that determine various physical variables. From the physical variables an accident risk actual value is determined, compared with an accident risk target value using an emergency braking system control unit, and if the accident risk actual value exceeds the accident risk target value, the single-track vehicle's brake is actuated by the emergency braking system control unit.
    Type: Grant

  • Seat occupancy detection device
    Patent number: 9452689
    Abstract: A seat occupancy detection device for a vehicle, particularly for a motorcycle, has at least one electrode of a capacitor, which is arranged in a seat area and takes the form of a wire. The seat occupancy detection device includes an electronic unit connected to the wire, which unit has a function generator to generate an electrical signal, and an analyzer. The electrical signal generated by the function generator can be modified by occupation of the seat area. Further, an assistance system may activate or deactivate an assistance unit depending on the detection by the seat occupancy detection device.
