Patent number: 11430203Abstract: A computer-implemented method for registering low dimensional images with a high dimensional image includes receiving a high dimensional image of a region of interest and simulating synthetic low dimensional images of the region of interest from a number of poses of a virtual low dimensional imaging device, from the high dimensional image. The method determines positions of landmarks within the low dimensional images by applying a first learning algorithm to the low dimensional images and back projecting of the positions of the determined landmarks into the high dimensional image space, to thereby obtain the positions of the landmarks in the high dimensional image. The positions of landmarks within low dimensional images acquired form an imaging device are determined by applying the first or a second learning algorithm to the low dimensional images. The low dimensional images are registered with the high dimensional image based on the positions of the landmarks.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2020Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: MAXER Endoscopy GmBHInventors: Nassir Navab, Matthias Grimm, Javier Esteban, Wojciech Konrad Karcz

Patent number: 8873506Abstract: A technique for transferring data between an application and at least two Radio Access Technology (RAT) modules selectively connectable to a network is described. A device embodiment of this technique comprises a storage adapted to hold data from the application, the data being intended to be transmitted via at least one of the RAT modules. Furthermore, the device comprises a first control mechanism adapted to initiate holding of the data in the storage when the RAT modules assume the same connection state. The connection state is selected from a connected state in which data transmission via the respective RAT is enabled and a disconnected state in which data transmission via the respective RAT is disabled. The device also comprises a second control mechanism adapted to initiate sending of the data held in the storage to the RAT module assuming the connected state when the RAT modules assumed different connection states again.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2008Date of Patent: October 28, 2014Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget L M Ericsson (publ)Inventors: Jürgen Lerzer, Hubert Schorr, Reinhold Schneider, Thorsten Birk, Matthias Grimm

Patent number: 8770674Abstract: A modulator for a vehicle brake system connected to a central module via a data bus, includes at least one input for capturing measured values and at least one output for controlling at least one electromagnetic valve. A control circuit for actuating the valve is connected by the bus such that the measured values are transmitted to the central module. Control commands for actuating the valve are calculated from the measured values in the central module, and are transmitted via the data bus to the modulator so that the it selects the valve as a function of the commands. A vehicle system has at least two modulators and a central module integrated in a modulator. The modulator can be used as a pressure modulator in an air suspension system or in an electronic braking system or in a conventional braking system with an anti-lock braking system or an electronic stability program.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2008Date of Patent: July 8, 2014Assignee: WABCO GmbHInventors: Christoph Brockmann, Claudia Deike, Matthias Grimm, Hartmut Rosendahl, Ingo Torhoff, Hans-Klaus Wolff
