Abstract: 2024-08-12 Disclosed is an electrode assembly, a cylindrical battery, and a battery pack and a vehicle including the same. The electrode assembly includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween, which are wound around one axis to define a core and an outer circumference. At least one of the first electrode and the second electrode includes an uncoated portion extending in a winding direction along a long side end thereof. The uncoated portion includes a plurality of segments separated by cut grooves formed along the winding direction and independently bendable. The plurality of segments are bent toward the core to form a bending surface area at one end of the electrode assembly. At least some of the plurality of segments include a folded end portion.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for detecting traffic lanes in real time are disclosed. The disclosed real-time lane detection apparatus may include: a candidate area establisher unit configured to establish as a candidate area for lane detection an area having an intensity value which corresponds to the intensity of a traffic lane marking from among the intensity values in a color space of a color image; and a lane-marking determiner unit configured to determine a traffic lane marking from the established candidate area by using a line component of the candidate area. According to the present invention, traffic lanes can be detected accurately and quickly, even in environments where the lighting conditions of the road vary.
