Abstract: The invention regards a method for electrochemical ammonia synthesis, comprising the steps of: —providing an electrolysis cell having a cathode, —contracting the cathode with a source of cations preferably lithium cations, a source of nitrogen a source of oxygen, and a source of protons, wherein the oxygen source provides a predefined oxygen concentration, and —subjecting the cell to a potential and current load, whereby ammonia is synthesized.

Abstract: A device and a method for detecting seat occupancy, with the device including first and second sensor elements associated with a respective seat surface. First and second weight-dependent sensor signals are electrically obtainable from the sensor elements. The seat occupancy is determined by taking either the first or the second sensor signals in dependence on an ambient temperature.

Abstract: In an occupant detection or classification system for a motor vehicle, a sensor mat (2) measures the pressure or pressure distribution on a seating surface. A control unit (4) receives the signals from the sensor mat (2) representing an occupancy of the vehicle seat. The temperature of the foam core (1) underlying the seating surface is measured at a location other than in the center of the foam core and, specifically, at the control unit (4).

Abstract: A circuit configuration recognizes the occupancy of a seat and triggers a seat belt warning in a motor vehicle. Resistance elements are disposed in a separated and flat manner on a motor vehicle seat, in particular on a sensor seating mat, which alters the resistance values when a force is exerted thereon, for example, perpendicular to the surface of the vehicle seat, or by bending. The weight-sensitive resistance elements contain first resistance elements and additional resistance elements, and the resistance values thereof can be measured in respectively different measuring circuits without the measuring results for the first resistance elements influencing the measuring results for the additional resistance elements.
