Abstract: A mobile scanning assembly and a method for driving such a scanning assembly allow a very flexible execution of a measuring procedure in a SLAM rotation mode, an MMS profile mode and/or using a static scan and an evaluation via an onboard PC to optimize the trajectory and the resulting 3D cloud of points.

Abstract: A power tool/battery pack combination includes an electric motor, one or more electrochemical cells, and a capacitive element. The electric motor is connected in series to a first switch. The series combination of the electric motor and the first switch is connected to a first terminal and a second terminal. The one or more electrochemical cells are connected across a third terminal and a fourth terminal. The third terminal and the fourth terminal are coupled respectively to the first terminal and the second terminal. The one or more electrochemical cells supply power to the electric motor via the first switch. The capacitive element includes one or more capacitors. The capacitive element is connected across the third terminal and the fourth terminal. The capacitive element is capable of storing inductive energy generated by the one or more electrochemical cells.

Abstract: A query system for carrying out a query process corresponding to a received query element on a database system and/or a search-engine system, the query system comprising: a synchronization unit operable, as a non-text-centric synchronization process, to convert a non-text-centric data entry of the database system into a corresponding text-centric data entry representative of that non-text-centric data entry, and to enter the text-centric data entry into an index of the search-engine system so that the non-text-centric data entry of the database system is available to both the search-engine and database systems.

Abstract: A query system for carrying out a query process corresponding to a received query element on a database system and/or a search-engine system, the query system comprising: a synchronisation unit operable, as a non-text-centric synchronisation process, to convert a non-text-centric data entry of the database system into a corresponding text-centric data entry representative of that non-text-centric data entry, and to enter the text-centric data entry into an index of the search-engine system so that the non-text-centric data entry of the database system is available to both the search-engine and database systems.
