Abstract: A first information processing apparatus and a second information processing apparatus communicate with one another. The first information processing apparatus has a first communication device and the second information processing apparatus has a second communication device. The first information processing apparatus displays combined state information of the first and second information processing apparatuses on a first display device, such that the combined state information of the first and second information processing apparatuses is superimposed with surroundings information on the first display device. The second information processing apparatus displays the combined state information of the first and second information processing apparatuses on a second display device.

Abstract: A method for operating a head-up display (HUD) of a vehicle, in which a control device of a vehicle transforms a display image to be displayed by a windshield of the vehicle into a reflection image to be reflected by the windshield and a display unit of a head-up display of the vehicle that is associated with the windshield displays the transformed reflection image, and a control device for a head-up display of a vehicle and a vehicle.

Abstract: The invention relates to an implant (1) for sealing a defect (7c) in the annulus fibrosus (7a) of an intervertebral disc (7), comprising a retaining portion (3) for introducing into the defect (7c), a flexible sealing element which is connected to an inner end of the retaining portion, and a securing element (2) which is connected to the outer end of the retaining portion and which can be fixed to a vertebra (8) adjoining the intervertebral disc in order to hold the retaining portion (3) in a fixed position. According to the invention, this is achieved in that a securing limb (2), which is angled relative to the longitudinal axis of the retaining portion, is arranged on the outer end of the retaining portion (3), said securing limb being designed for laterally contacting a bony structure of a vertebra adjacent to the intervertebral disc and being securable on the vertebra by means of a fixing element which can be moved relative to the securing limb. The sealing element has inner reinforcements.

Abstract: The invention relates to an implant for the insertion between vertebral bodies (2) of the spinal column, having a first contact surface (9) for the disposition on one of the adjacent vertebral bodies (2), and a second contact surface (10) for the disposition on the implant part (3, 4) comprising the other adjacent vertebral body (2). At least one elastically flexible component (11) is disposed in the force transmission chain formed by the implant part (3, 4) between the disposition surfaces of the adjacent vertebral bodies (2).

Abstract: A tool for installing a bone screw in a bone. The tool has a guide wire having an inner end adapted to be seated at the bone at a site where the screw, which is tubular and can fit around and slide along the wire, is to be installed, a tubular tool body fittable over and around the wire and having a tip fittable with the bone screw when same is traversed by the wire to rotate and drive the bone screw, a stabilizer axially and rotationally fixable to the wire offset from the tool body so that the screw can be screwed axially into the bone at the site while the wire is prevented from moving axially by the stabilizer.

Abstract: An implant for the correction and stabilization of the spinal column, comprising pedicle screws that can be screwed into the vertebrae of a spine, and of at least one connection element that connects the pedicle screws at the screw heads. This connection element is formed by a spiral whose spiral windings are arranged offset in the axial direction, following a screw line.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pedicle screw for implants for the correction and stabilization of the spinal column, having a head part (4) disposed on the one axial end of a threaded shaft (2), to which part a shackle part (3) can be connected, which part has a shackle accommodation (5) for a rod (6) that can be fixed in place on the head part (4). A threaded bore (8) is formed in the shackle part (3), to accommodate a thread that is assigned to the head part (4).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process of removing coloured stains from plastic by treating the substrate in an automatic dishwashing machine with an aqueous liquor comprising a hydrophobic component having a density in the range of 0.06 to 1 gram cm3.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a detergent composition comprising an enzyme. The enzyme is at least partially encapsulated within water-soluble particles in a gel. The particles comprise a water-soluble encapsulating agent. The particles have a migration speed in the gel of less than one centimetre per month.
