Publication number: 20240112177Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to identity verification in blockchain transactions. An exemplary identity management system may receive an authorization request that can include a wallet address, a blockchain network identifier, a dApp smart contract address, a function signature, transaction data, and a redirect address. The wallet address is enrolled by providing obtained user data to a KYC provider system, receiving validated user data, providing the validated user data to a sanction provider system, and receiving a sanction list result. A access token is issued that includes an issuer identifier, the function signature, the dApp smart contract address, and an indication of wallet address successfully enrollment. A message is then returned that includes the access token and the transaction data. The dApp smart contract is configured to execute the function after verifying the access token via an identity verification smart contract that is inherited by the dApp smart contract.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Markus Maier, Philipp Banhardt

Patent number: 11872995Abstract: A method for predicting a driving maneuver in a driver assistance system of a motor vehicle. Based on dynamic data of the vehicle detected with the aid of sensors, a history of a driving maneuver, which is not yet completed, is recorded and, based on the history, a future course of the driving maneuver is predicted. Multiple hypotheses for potentially occurring driving maneuvers are represented by respective associated sets of parameters. A theoretical history of the driving maneuver is calculated based on the parameters for each hypothesis. The recorded history is compared to at least one of the theoretical histories. Based on a similarity degree, the hypothesis which describes the presently occurring driving maneuver with the highest probability is determined and output as the prediction result.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2021Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: ROBERT BOSCH GMBHInventors: Adrien Desies, Lorenz Quack, Markus Maier, Michael Baumann, Mostafa Alavi

Patent number: 9143020Abstract: An electric drive motor for a work apparatus includes a stator having two stator poles which are at a distance from one another in the circumferential direction and have respective field windings. The motor has a rotor which rotates between the stator poles and the rotor shaft of the rotor drives a fan wheel. The cooling-air flow generated by the fan wheel enters the stator, flows therethrough and is discharged therefrom. For effective cooling, a pole intermediate space is provided between the stator poles; and, for the cooling-air flow, this space is filled by a non-magnetic guide body to provide a cooling duct delimited by the guide body and the field windings. The guide body is fastened to a support at one stator end and is inserted axially into the stator at the other end thereof.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2013Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: Andreas Stihl AG & Co.
