Abstract: In various examples, a machine learning model—such as a deep neural network (DNN)—may be trained to use image data and/or other sensor data as inputs to generate two-dimensional or three-dimensional trajectory points in world space, a vehicle orientation, and/or a vehicle state. For example, sensor data that represents orientation, steering information, and/or speed of a vehicle may be collected and used to automatically generate a trajectory for use as ground truth data for training the DNN. Once deployed, the trajectory points, the vehicle orientation, and/or the vehicle state may be used by a control component (e.g., a vehicle controller) for controlling the vehicle through a physical environment. For example, the control component may use these outputs of the DNN to determine a control profile (e.g., steering, decelerating, and/or accelerating) specific to the vehicle for controlling the vehicle through the physical environment.

Abstract: In examples, image data representative of an image of a field of view of at least one sensor may be received. Source areas may be defined that correspond to a region of the image. Areas and/or dimensions of at least some of the source areas may decrease along at least one direction relative to a perspective of the at least one sensor. A downsampled version of the region (e.g., a downsampled image or feature map of a neural network) may be generated from the source areas based at least in part on mapping the source areas to cells of the downsampled version of the region. Resolutions of the region that are captured by the cells may correspond to the areas of the source areas, such that certain portions of the region (e.g., portions at a far distance from the sensor) retain higher resolution than others.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for providing an amount of pigment in which, when glycosidic bonds of a polysaccharide structure are cleaved, pigments contained in the polysaccharide structure, in particular pigments comprising color, luminous and/or flame-retardant pigments, are released and the amount of pigment is formed by the pigments released in this manner.

Abstract: An RFID handheld device is connected at an antenna input to an RFID reading apparatus for the stationary installation at a reading zone, said RFID handheld device having a trigger switch as well as a first antenna and an antenna connector connected to the first antenna so that an RFID signal received by the RFID handheld device, but not evaluated there, can be supplied to the receiver via the antenna input. On actuating a trigger switch at the RFID handheld devices, a trigger signal can be transmitted to the evaluation unit which then carries out a reading procedure via the first antenna.

Abstract: The invention relates to a yarn having regenerated cellulose fibers produced by a spinning process, in particular a wet-spinning process and in particular consisting thereof, and having flame-retardant characteristics brought about by a flame retardant means spun into at least one portion of the regenerated cellulose fibers, wherein the yarn as soon across the cross-section thereof has an inhomogeneous distribution of the flame retardant mean and has a weight displaced towards the outside in relation to the yarn center.

Abstract: The warning lamp for an aircraft is provided with a housing (10) which possesses a light permeable cover (12) that is exposed to the surrounding air when the housing is mounted on the aircraft, with a frontal cover area and a rear cover area, a mounting element (44) to fasten the cover to a lower part (14) of the housing (10), wherein one edge (41) of the cover (12) is covered by an edge of the mounting element (44) and protrudes from it, a lamp with at least one LED (42,46,58,60), which is arranged within an area that is covered by the cover (12), and a cooling body (18) for the at least one LED (42,46,58,60), wherein the cooling body (18) possesses a cooling surface (32) that is exposed to the surrounding air when the housing (10) is mounted on the aircraft. The frontal cover area is formed by a frontal cover element (22) which is made from a light permeable first material.

Abstract: At least one embodiment of the invention relates to supplying ships in a harbor with external energy in order to prevent the formation of soot and CO2. For this purpose it is already known to supply ships with power from the wharfage. One problem in such a power supply provided from the wharf is that differences in the harbor's water level must be balanced for the power supply of a ship in the harbor. Furthermore, the operational readiness of such a power supply on land may be adversely affected, such as in the case of high water. At least one embodiment of the invention proposes a buoyant harbor power supply, e.g. the components of the harbor power supply are disposed on or in a buoyant device, particularly a barge.

Abstract: A fuel system is disclosed for a floating unit, including a fuel passage extending from a filler neck to a motor, a measuring unit disposed in the fuel passage through which at least part of the fuel flowing along the fuel passage flows, for measuring a sulfur content of the fuel through the measuring unit.
