Abstract: An optically variable representation element with a reflective surface region generates a respective three-dimensional representation for at least two different observation directions. The reflective surface region contains a respective multiplicity of reflective facets in a first and a second partial region, which at least partially overlap one another. The reflective facets are oriented such that the facets in the first partial region generate a first three-dimensional representation from the first observation direction and the facets in the second partial region generate a second three-dimensional representation from the second observation direction. The facets of the reflective surface region are provided at least regionally with sub-wavelength structures which generate the different colors of the three-dimensional representations in the overlap region.

Abstract: The aim of the invention is to detect an arc in an assembly for transmitting a direct voltage. This aim is achieved by a communication transformer having a primary winding and a secondary winding, the secondary winding being connected to a transmitting device, which is designed to impress a communication signal onto the secondary winding of the communication transformer, and the primary winding being connected to one of the direct voltage lines in order to feed a communication signal transformed by the communication transformer to one of the direct voltage lines. In order to detect, in the assembly, the arc signal caused by an arc, the secondary winding is connected to an arc detection unit, which is designed to detect an arc signal transformed by the communication transformer.

Abstract: A multimedia experience facility includes a first presentation unit, a second presentation unit, an auditorium having a base area, wherein the first presentation unit and the second presentation unit are assigned to the auditorium, and an audience area, wherein the audience area is arranged inside the auditorium, and wherein the audience area has a substructure and seats accommodated thereon, and wherein the arrangement of the seats establishes a main viewing direction in the audience area. A bearing apparatus is arranged in the auditorium, by which the substructure of the audience area can be pivoted relative to the base area of the auditorium in terms of its orientation such that the main viewing direction is oriented to the first presentation unit in a first configuration and the main viewing direction is oriented to the second presentation unit in a second configuration.

Abstract: An optically variable security element has a motif region including a plurality of differently oriented first facets and a plurality of differently oriented second facets arranged in the motif region. Each of the first and second facets defines a normal vector having a first orientation component and a second orientation component. The color impression of the at least one motif is determined by the first orientation components. The representation of the at least one motif is defined by the second orientation components. The first orientation components of the first facets and the second facets are different from one another.

Abstract: Systems and methods for implementing Trans-Cloud infrastructure deployment include receiving an input from a user, the input comprising a Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications (TOSCA) template and input parameters for instantiation via a graphical user interface (GUI), applying the input parameters to the TOSCA template, creating a directed acyclic graph of the TOSCA template based on defined relationships; and executing the instantiated model through API calls to orchestration engine based on the order defined in the acyclic graph. The TOSCA template and input parameters can specify a region for deployment and/or server plan.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for evaluating usage data of at least one orthopaedic device which is equipped with sensors for detecting properties, states, or changes in properties or states, wherein the sensors are connected to a transmitter directly or via a storage device and the transmitter transmits the sensor data provided by the sensors to an evaluation unit in a computer network in which the sensor data is processed.
