Abstract: A method for measuring a workpiece by a measurement device includes capturing an identification feature of a workpiece by a capture device, determining an item of identity information relating to the workpiece, comparing the identity information with identity information relating to a plurality of workpieces from a database which stores the identity information relating to the plurality of workpieces, identifying the workpiece in the database, and/or characterizing the workpiece from the comparison with the database, determining a measurement sequence stored in the database for the identified workpiece, or suggesting features or steps of a measurement sequence for the identified workpiece, and measuring the workpiece in accordance with the measurement sequence in the measurement device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a vehicle control unit that includes a microcontroller unit, a sealing controller unit including a memory for storing a validity state, an electrical connector configured to couple the microcontroller unit to the sealing controller unit, and a housing enclosing the microcontroller unit, the sealing controller unit, and the electrical connector. The microcontroller unit is configured to determine the validity state of the sealing controller unit via the electrical connector, and the sealing controller unit is configured to detect a mechanical change to the housing and to change the validity state when such a mechanical change is detected.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cooling system for cooling an electronic component, the cooling system comprising a heat sink with a cooling channel for guiding a liquid. The heat sink comprises an external surface comprising at least one opening which partially exposes the cooling channel. The electronic component is mounted to the external surface such that the electronic component covers the opening. A sealing material is arranged between the electronic component and the external surface for at least partially sealing the electronic component against the liquid. The present disclosure further relates to a method for assembling a cooling system, the method comprising: forming at least one opening through an external surface of a heat sink; dispensing a sealing material in a liquid state over the external surface around the at least one opening for forming a molding; and pressing the electronic component onto the molding.

Abstract: A detection-system for a vehicle to detect the presence of one or more object relative to the vehicle comprises a module-housing, a radar sensor component located within the module-housing for emitting a radar beam and receiving reflected signals in a detection mode. The radar sensor component comprises means for emitting a defrost beam in a defrost mode; the defrost beam overlapping the radar beam. The detection-system further comprises an absorber material located in the field of view of the defrost beam to absorb the energy of the defrost beam and to warm up in view to provide a defrosting effect.

Abstract: An electronic assembly including a cooling device comprises a cooling plate equipped, on its upper face, with a plurality of pin-fins; a first printed circuit board including at least one heat-generating zone bearing against the lower face of the cooling plate; each pin including a blowing means comprising a hub equipped with blades, the blades being arranged axially along each pin so as to be able to rotate about the pin, thus creating a flow of air for cooling the pins.

Abstract: An electronic device for a vehicle includes a metal tubular casing extending longitudinally and opening at its two ends, and a wall having a curved profile with cooling fins on its outer surface. The electronic device includes an assembly of printed circuit boards comprising a first plurality of printed circuit boards that include heat-generating electronic components. The printed circuit boards of the assembly are connected together by flexible conductive elements. The device further comprises a first heat sink arranged inside the tubular casing comprising a curved wall generally extending parallel to the curved wall of the tubular casing. The first plurality of printed circuit boards is interposed between the curved inner surface of the wall of the casing and the curved wall of the first heat sink so heat is dissipated through the first heat sink and through the curved wall equipped with cooling fins of the tubular casing.

Abstract: A coordinate-measuring system and related method for securely and intelligently coupling and connecting a mobile terminal device to a stationary coordinate-measuring device. A mobile terminal is arranged to be physically separate from and movable in relation to the coordinate-measuring device and is designed for the operation of the coordinate-measuring device. The coordinate-measuring device and the mobile terminal are designed to establish an authenticated wireless connection for exchanging data between the coordinate-measuring device and the mobile terminal. An identifier, which uniquely identifies the coordinate-measuring device, and a dynamic first key are associated with the coordinate-measuring device. The dynamic first key represents an access authorization and preferably also a degree of access authorization of the user. The mobile terminal device is also designed to request the first key from the user. The first key is used for authentication in the establishment of the wireless connection.
