  • Patent number: 11928978
    Abstract: A method includes receiving geospatial data representative of a plurality of geospatial objects of an airport taxi system, the plurality of geospatial objects including a first geospatial object and a second geospatial object, wherein first geospatial data is representative of the first geospatial object and second geospatial data is representative of the second geospatial object. The method also includes determining a routing relationship between the first geospatial object and the second geospatial object based at least on the first geospatial data and the second geospatial data, wherein the routing relationship indicates that an aircraft using the airport taxi system can pass from the first geospatial object to the second geospatial object. The method also includes generating spatial relationship data describing the routing relationship, wherein generating the spatial relationship data comprises generating data describing nodes or edges of a node-edge network.

  • Publication number: 20110267820
    Abstract: An outside light (10) for the illumination of streets, sidewalks, squares, buildings, outside installations and the like according to a selected illumination profile, comprises a housing (16, 18) which is at least partially transparent or translucent, and a lighting means (20) provided inside said housing, the outside light being characterized in that the lighting means (20) comprises: a carrier (20), one or more LED-assemblies (26) provided on the carrier, and a heat removing system (22, 48, 50) for removing heat generated by the LED-assemblies towards the outside; wherein the carrier (22) is designed in such a way that the LED-assemblies (26) shine in directions according to the selected illumination profile. The lighting means may serve as a substitute for high pressure lamps.

  • Patent number: 7470045
    Abstract: A device for shielding outside lights comprising an essentially cylindrical, transparent shield body with a surface which is provided with a zigzag-shaped profile in a vertical direction in order to deflect the radiation from a lighting source incident on the shield body in a desired direction. Triangular projections of the zigzag-shaped profile in a first portion are designed and configured in such a way that the radiation from the lighting source is fully reflected in a desired direction when passing through the first portion of the shield body and triangular projections of the zigzag-shaped profile in a second portion are designed and configured in such a way that the radiation from the lighting source is diffracted in the desired direction when passing through the second portion of the shield body.

  • Patent number: 6933444
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electrical supply and control system for supplying electrical energy to an electrical device arrangement, which includes at least one sensor means, and for remote-controlling said electrical device arrangement. In order to provide an inexpensive conductor rail system, which permits the control of connected electrical devices depending on an environmental situation, the invention provides at least one profiled conductor rail with a power conductor and control lines extending along the conductor rail. Adapters are provided for releasably attaching at least on electrical device of the electrical device arrangement to the conductor rail and for, thereby, electrically connecting the power conductor and the control lines to the device.

  • Patent number: 4669034
    Abstract: A non-glare screen is assembled of prismatic rings stacked one on the other and coaxially enclosing a light emitting surface. Each ring has a cross-section of a right triangle. One leg of the triangle is perpendicular to the axis of the light emitting surface and the hypoteruse forms with the one leg an angle between 35.degree. to 45.degree., preferably 40.degree..
