Abstract: A method is provided for a distortion-free display of image elements, which are composed of computer-generated pixels and are reflected on a non-planar reflective surface, in particular a windshield of a motor vehicle. According to this method, pre-distorted image data are calculated by a computer unit in an operating phase as a function of the distortion properties of the reflective surface from the original image data of the image elements in accordance with the display-related pre-distortion parameters and are transferred to a display unit, which projects the image elements onto the reflective surface. In order to obtain the display-related pre-distortion parameters, at least one image element is provided, pre-distorted and projected in the form of original image data in a calibration phase in a procedure that is analogous to the operating phase; and the image data resulting from the projection are recorded using a camera and image processing, and compared with the original image data.

Abstract: In the case of a process for changing an electronic memory for use-related data of a vehicle, the changed new data and the old data maintained in the memory are sent to a comparator, in which case the comparator permits the taking-over or acceptance of the new data into the memory only if the new data have changed in comparison to the old data in a manner which conforms with the use of the data.
