  • Publication number: 20250069385
    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.

  • Publication number: 20150324621
    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.

  • Patent number: 8482164
    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.
