Abstract: A sensor for a vehicle includes a sensor housing, a surface of which sensor housing has at least three areas defining at least three reference measuring fields. Positions of the at least three reference measuring fields define a reference plane. The reference measuring fields have (i) a surface texture which enables tactile position determination of the reference measuring fields, and/or (ii) a surface characteristic which enables optical position determination. The detected positions of the reference measuring fields are used to define the reference plane. A mechanical sensor axis of the target sensor is defined as extending orthogonally to the reference plane. The mechanical sensor axis is used to (a) ascertain an angle of deviation between the mechanical sensor axis and a known sensor axis of the sensor, and/or (b) align the mechanical sensor axis to a travel axis of the vehicle.

Abstract: A three-port component comprises a source electrode, a drain electrode, and a channel, which is corrected between the source electrode and the drain electrode and which is made of a material haying an electronic conductivity that can be varied by supplying and/or removing ions. The three-port component comprises an ion reservoir, which is in contact with a gate electrode, and which is connected to the channel so that the reservoir is able to exchange ions with the channel when a potential is applied to the gate electrode. Information can be stored on the three-port component by distributing the total number of ions, which are present in the ion reservoir and the channel, between the ion reservoir and the channel. The distribution of ions in the channel and the ion reservoir changes when, and only when, a corresponding driving potential is applied to the gate electrode. Thus, in contrast to RRAMS, there is no time-voltage dilemma.

Abstract: A one-piece keyboard housing in a simple but compact manner is provided by using an internal gas pressure injection molding process (air mold process). With this process, the keyboard housing can be formed as a one-piece molded part with recesses and cavities. The cavity serves to reduce weight, and the process itself improves stability within the keyboard housing. The molded part is formed of a traylike first housing shell, in which a keypad can be mounted, and a second housing shell with recesses that joins the first housing shell in an n-shape.
