  • Patent number: 11597480
    Abstract: A system for guiding a boat, which includes the boat and a remote server. The boat includes a central unit linked to a user interface, a receiver for receiving data transmitted by at least one electronic tag affixed to a device of the boat and to a radio device for bidirectional communication with the remote server. The central unit transmits information resulting from the data transmitted by the tags, the current position and the route plan of the boat via the radio device to the server, and receives route plan modification data, which are displayed on the user interface, from this server. In this way, the operator of the boat is able to gain knowledge of the movement of nearby craft and of possible collision risks. Further, the boat may include on-board connected objects that communicate with the central unit in order to determine whether devices are missing on board.

  • Patent number: 11297769
    Abstract: A process for conveying a flow of harvested crop along a first conveyor, which is configured to convey the flow along a first direction, and a second conveyor arranged downstream of the first conveyor and which is configured to convey the flow along a second direction different from the first direction. The process includes operating the first conveyor at a variable conveyor speed presenting a cycle of acceleration and deceleration, the cycle being operable to ensure a spatial repartition of the flow of harvested crop on the second conveyor, which receives the flow at a location that is variable according to the first direction.

  • Patent number: 10501861
    Abstract: Electrochemical device or photo-electrochemical device comprising an electrolyte containing a bistriflimide anion, hereafter named as TFSI—, at least two electrodes, each of these electrodes being in contact with a current collector comprising a metal support characterized in that at least one electrode has a current collector the metal support of which comprises an electro-active surface which is functionalized with linear or branched fluorinated carbon chains, such as perfluoroalkyl chains, in the form of a molecular layer which improves the corrosion resistance of said functionalized surface compared to a non-functionalized surface, wherein not impairing the passage of electrons between said electrode and its current collector, the functionalized surface being at the interface between said electrode and its current collector.
