Abstract: A bandpass filter for light has variable lower and upper cut-off wavelengths. The bandpass filter comprises an areal long-pass filter defining the variable lower cut-off wavelength and an areal short-pass filter defining the variable upper cut-off wavelength. The long-pass filter has different lower cut-off wavelengths in different first area regions which follow to one another in a first direction, and the short-pass filter has different upper cut-off wavelengths in different second area regions which follow to one another in a second direction. The long-pass filter and the short-pass filter are connected in series and spatially fixed relative to one another. The first direction and the second direction are oriented crosswise to one another.

Abstract: A system and method for creating secure software code. Original code is processed to determine memory states, which are dynamic during execution of the code. Selected functions of the code are duplicated and placed in parallel alternative control paths in order to create protected code with increased path diversity. The state of the memory, or a variable derived therefrom is used to select one of the alternative paths during execution of the protected code.

Abstract: A method for operating an electric motor that drives a displacement pump stage to deliver a liquid through a hydraulic system to supply the liquid to at least one consumer. A periodically repeating pressure fluctuation of the liquid that occurs during delivery operation is at least partially compensated by virtue of the rotational speed of the electric motor being manipulated in accordance with the periodically repeating pressure fluctuation.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a drive arrangement for a flap of a motor vehicle, comprising a linear drive for producing drive movements and comprising a transmission arrangement, which is coupled to said linear drive, for transmitting the drive movements, a compensating arrangement being provided which couples two drive elements of the drive arrangement to each other in terms of drive, and, when a limit load between the two drive elements is exceeded, the compensating arrangement permitting a guided compensating movement between the two drive elements. It is proposed that the transmission arrangement provides the compensating arrangement.
