  • Publication number: 20250107594
    Abstract: A shoe sole with a guide element which is embedded between a ground contact surface and a foot contact surface of the shoe sole, is designed to control the optimum movement sequence of the foot, has a smaller width extension than the shoe sole and extends along an S-shaped line, in such a way that the shoe sole further supports the natural or correct gait of the user, it is proposed that the guide element is a proprioceptive guide element and has elevations extending towards the foot contact surface, and/or that the shoe sole has, in the heel section arranged medially to the substantially S-shaped line, a stabilization element which can be detachably fastened in the shoe sole and which extends out of the shoe sole in the direction of and up to the plane of the ground contact surface.

  • Patent number: 12214767
    Abstract: A method for carrying out an autonomous brake application in a two-wheel motor vehicle. In the method, the need for a vehicle deceleration is detected with the aid of a surroundings sensor system; depending thereon, a driver-independent vehicle deceleration is initiated; once the vehicle deceleration has been initiated, a driver readiness variable characterizing the readiness of the driver to control the vehicle deceleration maneuver is ascertained; and the temporal progression of the vehicle deceleration is continued depending on the driver readiness variable.

  • Patent number: 12093119
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for safeguarding a system against false positives. The method includes: receiving a time series of a criticality, the system including a functionality that is triggered when the criticality meets a first predetermined criterion; computing a time series of a reference, the reference being a comparison criticality for a triggering of the functionality; computing a time series of an error measure at least based on the time series of the criticality and the time series of the reference, a triggering of the functionality being classified as a false positive when a portion of the time series of the error measure meets a second predetermined criterion; and identifying at least one near-false positive, a non-triggering of the functionality being classified as a near-false positive when a portion of the time series of the error measure meets a third predetermined criterion, but not the second predetermined criterion.

  • Patent number: 9452780
    Abstract: A driver assistance system for a motor vehicle includes: a longitudinal guide controller; a transverse guide controller; at least one operating element via which the transverse guide controller is able to be activated only in common with, or in addition to, the longitudinal guide controller; a steering sensor which detects an operation of the steering wheel by the driver, the transverse guide controller being able to be deactivated by a signal of the steering sensor without the longitudinal guide controller being deactivated; and a brake pedal sensor which detects an operation of the brake pedal of the vehicle, the transverse guide controller and the longitudinal guide controller being able to be deactivated by a signal of the brake pedal sensor.
