Abstract: A method for operating vehicles, with which the state of the driver's health is determined and a corresponding signal is sent, provides continuously activatable systems in the vehicle, and thus the physical state of the driver and the other passengers is positively influenced and/or any stress that arises is counteracted.

Abstract: A regulating method is provided for a motor vehicle seat. According to the method, the ideal seat position data associated with a vehicle user is recorded in a seat data memory. The respective vehicle user is identified by use of an identification device, and the ideal seat position data of the user is associated therewith. The actual seat position is determined by use of a stereoscopic optical element with an associated image data computer. The seat adjustments are carried out in such a way that the actual seat position corresponds at least approximately to the ideal seat position.

Abstract: A method for controlling a heating and air conditioning system equipped with actuators, preferably vents, is provided. Interior conditions are detected by an interior sensing system, with at least the seat occupancy with occupants being automatically recognized by an object recognition system on the basis of the data supplied by the interior sensing system. An optimized adjustment of the heating and air conditioning system to the seat occupancy is automatically performed as a function of the recognized seat occupancy.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling a seat adjustment by means of a passenger compartment camera system, with which images of at least one portion of an individual sitting on a vehicle seat are recorded, and by means of a control unit, via which at least one type of movement of the individual sitting on the vehicle seat is identified from a series of images. The identified type of movement is compared with types of movement already stored in the control unit. When a stored type of movement is identified, a seat adjustment is carried out that is assigned to this type of movement.

Abstract: A method for signing a dataset in a public key system is provided. An unsigned dataset is produced. The data set receives a first signature by producing a first signature using a first secret or private key from a pair of keys associated with an authorized person, the pair of keys comprising a public and secret key. The dataset is checked to see if the dataset is provided with the first signature or with other signatures of authorized persons. At least the dataset is provided with a second signature from a second authorized person by producing a third signature using the secret point if the dataset has already been signed by a predetermined number of authorized persons. A signed dataset is produced, the data set comprising at least the unsigned dataset and the third signature produced using the secret or private key of the signature point.

Abstract: A method of controlling an acoustic system in a vehicle, in which the interior is monitored by an interior sensing system, at least the position of the occupant's head in the interior is recognized by an object recognition system on the basis of the data supplied by the interior sensing system, and a setting of the acoustic system that is optimized for the occupants is performed automatically by a control unit as a function of seat occupancy and the position of the occupant's head in the interior.
