  • Publication number: 20210080284
    Abstract: A method for distributing navigation map data to a plurality of work machines which are part of a network of work machines and perform work orders in this network, wherein the navigation map data are needed in the work machines to carry out the work orders, and work orders are planned on the basis of navigation map data, includes detecting work orders for work machines, which work orders exist in the network and were planned on the basis of old navigation map data. The method includes checking the work orders which exist in the network in order to determine whether these work orders can be carried out with new navigation map data, and terminating work orders which cannot be carried out with new navigation map data. The new navigation map data is then installed.

  • Patent number: 10803680
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for a motor vehicle to increase safety for remote triggering and a motor vehicle having such an apparatus. Data are received from a second device, from which there is a communication link to a first device. The data are associated with user inputs in an application on the second device. The first device receives, for each user input, a portion of the data in a data packet of a data packet structure and prevents remote triggering if the data packet structure does not correspond to a predetermined data packet structure. A difference in the reception sequence of the data packets from the predetermined order is an indicator of malfunctioning in the second device. Preventing remote triggering in the event of a difference reduces the risk of remote triggering by a faulty second device and faulty remote triggering.
