Abstract: A method for aerial vehicle component networking comprises, for a network-accessible avionics component onboard an aerial vehicle, instantiating a data stream object that specifies a network socket for communication between the network-accessible avionics component and a plurality of other network-accessible aerial vehicle components. A set of outgoing data is defined for transmission over the network socket to one or more onboard unicast aerial vehicle component subscribers of the plurality of other network-accessible aerial vehicle components and two or more onboard or offboard multicast aerial vehicle component subscribers of the plurality of other network-accessible aerial vehicle components. The outgoing data is published to the one or more onboard unicast aerial vehicle component subscribers over the network socket via unicast communication.

Abstract: The invention relates to a handheld device (1) for infrared temperature measurement, comprising an infrared radiation detector (3) for measuring the temperature of a measuring spot (4) on an object under measurement (5), comprising an optical pickup device (2) for sensing the region containing the measuring spot (4) and comprising a display means (6) for presenting the measured temperature value. To provide a handheld device (1) which uses simple means to enable an operator to line up a measuring spot (4) on an object under measurement (5) and at the same time give the operator information on one or more ambient variables during this operation, it is proposed to design the display means (6) for continuously presenting the region of the object under measurement (5) that contains the measuring spot (4) and at least one item of temperature information that is correlated synchronously in time with the presentation.

Abstract: A sonotrode mount system is provided having at least one generally U-shaped clamp supportable at a carrier and including a web and two arms respectively elastically tiltable about a node point provided in a web region and between which an ultrasonic sonotrode is clampable. At least the free ends of the arms contact the sonotrode on a clamped sonotrode. The clamp is supportable at the carrier in the web region, wherein it is preferably supportable at the carrier in the node point of the tilt movements. Such a sonotrode mount system can be provided, in particular for the holding of a vibrating structure of an ultrasonic system which is part of an apparatus for sealing, connecting, separating, perforating and/or shaping of materials, such as in particular plastics, foils, non-woven fabrics, fabrics/textiles and/or paper.

Abstract: A measuring device (1) for contactlessly measuring the temperature is provided with imaging optics (3, 3?) for IR radiation (5), which is incident on a measurement object (16) from a measuring spot (14), and a measuring spot marking apparatus (11) which generates a measuring spot mark (15) which delimits the measuring spot (14), wherein the aperture angle detected by the imaging optics (3, 3?), can be varied using an adjustment device (7), and the adjustment device (7) can be used to change the size of the measuring spot mark (15) in a manner corresponding to the variation in the aperture angle (FIG. 2).

Abstract: The invention relates to a portable refractometer comprising a depression (7) for samples, located on an insertion tip (11) in such a way that once the insertion tip (11) has penetrated a liquid or a fruit, a sufficient quantity of the sample liquid remains in the depression (7) for samples, thus wetting a measuring surface (4) that is delimited in said depression by a transparent body. The refractive index of the wetting liquid can be determined by measuring the intensity of an optical beam that is reflected by the measuring surface (4).
