Abstract: A probe device for a rotating head has at least one support arm that is mounted so as to rotate around an axis of rotation, at least one probe that is joined to the support arm, and at least one spring element that can be supported on the rotating head and engages at the support arm and that is provided for exerting a force on the support arm, which, as a result of this force, experiences a torque with respect to the axis of rotation. The support arm has at least one mount, which is concentric with the axis of rotation, for the spring element, which, when arranged on the mount, is bent at least in part around the axis of rotation. As a consequence, centrifugal forces that act on the spring element when the rotating head is in operation have no influence on the tension of the spring element.

Abstract: A signal processing unit for an inductive position sensor is provided. The inductive position sensor provides a first position signal and a second phase-shifted position signal, such as, a sine position signal and a cosine position signal. The signal processing unit has an integrator for integrating an integer number of periods of the first position signal respectively an integer number of periods of the second phase-shifted position signal. The position of the moving target of the position sensor is calculated from the integrated first position signal and the integrated second phase-shifted position signal.

Abstract: A system for establishing a contour of a structure is disclosed. An initialization subsystem (1) is used for initializing an adaptive mesh representing an approximate contour of the structure, the structure being represented at least partly by a first image, and the structure being represented at least partly by a second image. A deforming subsystem (2) is used for deforming the adaptive mesh, based on feature information of the first image and feature information of the second image. The deforming subsystem comprises a force-establishing subsystem (3) for establishing a force acting on at least part of the adaptive mesh, in dependence on the feature information of the first image and the feature information of the second image. A transform-establishing subsystem (4) is used for establishing a coordinate transform reflecting a registration mismatch between the first image, the second image, and the adaptive mesh.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a differential probe, a testing device having at least one such differential probe, and a method for producing the same. The differential probe has a first half-probe and a second half-probe, at least one conductor loop pair having a conductor loop of each half-probe being shaped mirror-inverted relative to each other and, in respect of a mirror-inverted arrangement thereof on respective sides of a mirror plane. The conductor loops are oriented parallel to the mirror plane, are arranged offset relative to each other in an offset direction, also parallel to the mirror plane, wherein the conductor loops overlap in part in the direction normal to the mirror plane.

Abstract: A method for operating functional unit of a motor vehicle using an identification system, in which at least a first authorization is requested for operating the functional unit and an identification signal is transmitted to an identification device by an identification element of the identification system. The functional unit is operated after receiving and the functional unit is only operated in a second authorization. The second authorization is generated by the identification device. Using the identification device, a first signal duration of the identification signal is determined for determining a first spacing of the identification element at a first point in time, and a second signal duration of the identification signal is determined for determining a second spacing of the identification element at a second point in time, and the second authorization is generated depending on a comparison.
