Abstract: A method for monitoring surroundings of a first sensor system. The method includes: providing a temporal sequence of data of the first sensor system for monitoring the surroundings; generating an input tensor including the temporal sequence of data of the first sensor system, for a trained neural network; the neural network being configured and trained to identify, on the basis of the input tensor, at least one subregion of the surroundings, in order to improve the monitoring of the surroundings with the aid of a second sensor system; generating a control signal for the second sensor system with the aid of an output signal of the trained neural network, in order to improve the monitoring of the surroundings in the at least one subregion.

Abstract: A method is for training an object detector configured to detect objects in sensor data of a sensor. The method includes providing first sensor data of the sensor, providing an object representation assigned to the first sensor data, and transmitting the object representation to a sensor model. The method further includes imaging object representations onto the first sensor data of the sensor with the sensor model, assigning the object representation to second sensor data with the sensor model, and training the object detector based on the second sensor data.

Abstract: Distance display systems and methods are included which may be used to display an accurate range from a cup of a golf hole to a plurality of tee hitting positions.

Abstract: A method for producing a motor vehicle rim made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy for a motor vehicle wheel. The motor vehicle rim has a rim base delimited on opposite sides by an outer horn and an inner horn, a hub with a central recess and a hole circle and a rim center connecting the rim base and the hub to one another and acting eccentrically on the rim base in longitudinal section. The motor vehicle rim is produced in one piece and continuously in a casting mold by vacuum die casting of a casting material, wherein the motor vehicle rim has a small wall thickness of at most 15 mm at least in some regions and/or a curvature with a small radius of curvature of at most 4 mm.

Abstract: Device for holding a silicon melt comprising a crucible, which partly surrounds an inner chamber for holding the melt, with a base and at least one side wall made of a base material, whereby the crucible comprises at least one equalizing means for equalizing mechanical thermal stresses.

Abstract: A fault protection system whose trip logic considers power magnitude and direction at first and second points on a conductor is provided. Under normal operating conditions, power flows in the same direction through first and second points on the conductor. Under faulted conditions, a differential power condition exists; that is, the power flowing at a first point on the conductor is of different magnitude and/or direction than the power flowing at a second point on the conductor. The trip logic identifies the differential power condition as the result of a fault between the first and second points on the conductor and causes a protective device on each side of the fault to trip open, thus isolating the fault.
