  • Publication number: 20250074272
    Abstract: A decoupling module for two releasably interconnected components may have a module housing with a first coupling interface for one of the components and with a hollow space. The module may also have a locking unit which is mounted axially movably in the module housing and, in an initial state, protrudes at least partially from the module housing to lock the two components releasably to each other. The module may also have a drive unit which on the other hand is arranged in a positionally fixed manner in the module housing. The locking unit and the drive unit are designed to interact in such a way that, upon triggering or firing of the drive unit, the locking unit can be acted upon or is acted upon abruptly and directly by a pressure surge propagating in the hollow space and moves into the module housing.

  • Patent number: 12236428
    Abstract: A method of performing a fund transfer at an ATM includes receiving an active authentication transaction key at an ATM from a mobile financial transaction instrument via a wireless communication protocol, generating a PIN at the ATM, and storing the PIN in a machine readable storage medium. An authorization request message is transmitted to a financial institution identified by the active authentication transaction key. The authorization request message includes the PIN and at least a portion of the active authentication transaction key. The PIN is received from a user of the mobile financial transaction instrument, and the funds are dispensed in response to receiving the PIN.

  • Patent number: 12228402
    Abstract: Calibrating an unstable sensor of a mobile device. Systems and methods for calibrating a sensor of a mobile device determine a first estimated position of the mobile device without using any measurement from the sensor of the mobile device, generate a second estimated position of the mobile device using a measurement from the sensor, estimate a sensor error of the sensor using the first estimated position and the second estimated position, and use the sensor error to determine a calibration value for adjusting one or more measurements from the sensor.

  • Publication number: 20240408756
    Abstract: A learning system for a navigating robot includes: a navigation module including: a first policy configured to determine actions for moving the navigating robot and navigating from a starting location to an ending location based on images from a camera of the navigating robot; and a second policy configured to, based on a representation of an environment generated by the navigating robot, determine actions for moving the navigating robot from waypoint locations between the starting location and the ending location to a plurality of subgoal locations without any images from the camera; and a representation module configured to: selectively learn the representation during movement via the first policy based on the representation at previous times, images from the camera, and actions determined by the first policy at previous times; and provide the representation to the second policy.

  • Publication number: 20240393791
    Abstract: A navigating robot includes: a feature module configured to detect objects in images captured by a camera of the navigating robot while the navigating robot is in a real world space; a mapping module configured to generate a map including locations of objects captured in the images and at least one attribute of the objects; and a navigation module trained to find and navigate to N different objects in the real world space in a predetermined order by: when a location of a next one of the N different objects in the predetermined order is stored in the map, navigate toward the next one of the N different objects in the real world space; and when the location of the next one of the N different objects in the predetermined order is not stored in the map, navigate to a portion of the map not yet captured in any images.

  • Publication number: 20240388800
    Abstract: A method for video stabilisation having the following steps: a) providing the a surgical microscope, comprising an image sensor, and a movement detection device which detects a movement of the image sensor and generates corresponding sensor movement data; b) detecting an object field and generating video data of the object field by means of the image sensor and generating image movement data by evaluating the video data; and c) correcting the video data, comprising c1) calculating displacement vector data which only or predominantly indicate a movement of the image sensor but do not or only subordinately indicate a movement within the object field, using the combined use of the sensor movement data, wherein the image movement data which indicate changes in movement of the object field are weighted and/or filtered on the basis of the sensor movement data, and c2) correcting the video data by means of the displacement vector data.

  • Patent number: 12145476
    Abstract: A motor vehicle seat may have a seat squab, a back rest, and kinematics for moving the vehicle seat from a use position suitable for conveying people to a non-use position or access position. The access position makes accessing a rear row of seats easier. The seat may be moved by a drive device from the use position to the non-use position, and vice versa. The seat may have a rear foot with a locking device that can be locked with a counter-element for securing in the use position. The seat may also have a protection device arranged in the region of the locking device for detecting an obstacle in a movement path of the rear foot when the vehicle seat is moved from the non-use position to the use position.

  • Patent number: 12147957
    Abstract: Systems and methods for performing fund transfers at an automated teller machine (ATM) are disclosed. The systems and methods include using authentication transaction keys to enable a transferee device to facilitate an ATM withdrawal. The fund transfer is based on pre-defined ATM transaction parameters, which include an amount of funds for the transaction and a geographic limitation for an ATM at which the transaction may occur. Funds can be transferred in response to authentication of the authentication transaction key and confirmation that the ATM corresponds to the geographic limitation for the ATM.

  • Publication number: 20240157894
    Abstract: A method for operating a motor vehicle door, according to which method the motor vehicle door is equipped, for example, with an actuator and/or a motor vehicle door lock in the form of a current consumer, and at least one sensor for detecting door movements. In addition, a control unit that evaluates signals from the sensor is provided which can be transferred from a rest mode into an operating mode and back again according to the recorded door movements. According to the invention, the door movement causes the sensor that is deenergised in the rest mode to generate a current pulse.
