Abstract: The invention relates to a method (100) for recognizing patterns (210) in image data (310), comprising the following steps: providing (101) the image data (310), determining (102) gradient information (410) on the basis of the image data (310) provided, wherein the gradient information (410) correlates with at least one image gradient in the image data (310) provided, determining (103) edge information (420) on the basis of the image data (310) provided, wherein the edge information (420) represents at least one or multiple edge image points (430) in the image data (310) provided, evaluating (104) the image data (310) provided on the basis of the gradient information (410) and the edge information (420), providing (105) at least one or multiple pattern representations (450) for the recognition of the pattern (210) on the basis of the evaluation (104).

Abstract: A device and a method for forming a structure on a workpiece by processing radiation while the workpiece is moved by a transport device, in which correction data of the workpiece are acquired by optical sensors. The correction data includes movement data of the workpiece and/or position data of a structure created on the workpiece by the processing radiation, and, dependent on the correction data, the deflection of processing radiation brought about by a deflection unit is determined, in particular corrected.

Abstract: A method for controlling an engagement and disengagement of a vehicle transmission parking lock. A vehicle present speed is ascertained when a device for activating the parking lock is actuated. When the vehicle has not yet reached a standstill and the present speed exceeds a threshold value, engagement of the parking lock is prevented. When the vehicle has not yet reached a standstill and the present speed falls below the threshold value, the vehicle activates the parking brake and is braked until the standstill is reached or until the present speed has reached substantially zero. A present gradient value of the roadway and/or a vehicle longitudinal inclination value is also ascertained. Based on these values, it is checked whether a hydraulic brake system of the vehicle is activated or whether the already activated parking brake should be deactivated.
