  • Patent number: 11012453
    Abstract: A method is provided for protecting a vehicle network of a vehicle against manipulated data transmission, in which the vehicle network includes multiple network nodes, and at least one first network node in the vehicle network in a normal mode checking a first received message as to whether the first received message is a message assigned to the first network node in the normal mode, but which the first network node did not transmit. The first network node in a diagnostic mode further checks a second received message as to whether the second received message is a message assigned to the first network node in the normal mode or in the diagnostic mode, but which the first network node did not transmit.

  • Patent number: 10938870
    Abstract: A system and method provides for content management for a networked communication platform, including receiving a communication connection with a user, such as via a networked connection. The method and system includes a communication platform having executable operations for facilitating a multi-party conference with a conference engine that receives both an audio/video stream from the user, as well as data relating to the user interface operations. Concurrently, the data stream and the audio/video stream are transmitted to a data engine. The facilitates an online conference with two more users, the data engine processes the feeds external from the conference itself, allowing for recordation.

  • Publication number: 20210039962
    Abstract: The invention relates to a water filter cartridge comprising a housing and a filter-side tank connection element for insertion into a water tank, more particularly into a water tank of a household appliance (11), and a filter section for treating the water to be taken from the water tank. It is distinguished by the fact that the water filter cartridge comprises a reservoir chamber with a means to counter precipitations in the water tank, where the reservoir chamber is designed separate from the filter section and its flow guideway for the water running through the filter section to be treated, in such a way that there is no contact between the water flowing through the filter section and the means to counter precipitations, and that the reservoir chamber has at least one passage for the means, whereby the means to counter precipitations is in contact with the unfiltered water in the water tank.

  • Patent number: 10914837
    Abstract: Object detection systems are provided herein. An example system includes an enclosure formed by a sidewall to define an interaction volume, at least one light source for illuminating the interaction volume with a light, at least one light sensor that senses disturbances in light intensity due to scattering, reflection, or absorption of the light by objects within the interaction volume, and a controller that is configured to detect an object or object behavior within interaction volume based on the disturbances in the light intensity. The objection detection system may also include a trigger volume and/or a sorting volume.

  • Publication number: 20210037034
    Abstract: A method and device for handling an anomaly at a unit. The device is integrated into the unit. A variable is detected for handling attacks on the unit that defines an operation of the unit. A piece of information is determined depending on the variable that characterizes surroundings in which the unit is operated. It is checked depending on a comparison of the piece of information about the surroundings to a piece information about the setpoint surroundings for the operation of the unit, whether or not an anomaly is present in the operation of the unit. The unit is operated in a first operating mode having a first functional range, if no anomaly is detected. The unit is operated in a second operating mode having a second functional range, which is reduced or changed with regard to the first functional range, if an anomaly is detected.

  • Patent number: 10891776
    Abstract: The invention provides a ‘model-based’ imaging system in which surface values to be applied to a segmented surface of an imaged body are determined on the basis of projections cast into the volume of the imaged body, the projections made at angles and depths determined on the basis of information encoded within an anatomical model. In examples, the angles and depths are determined on the basis of a comprehensive segmentation of the imaged body, itself performed on the basis of the anatomical model. By locally varying projection angles and depths around the body, in dependence upon local anatomical context, improved imaging of the internal structure of the imaged body may be achieved. In particular, images may be generated providing representations of the internal structure which are of greater clinical utility or relevance. 4D data sets may also be better handled, through use of anatomical context to maintain consistency in representations across multiple frames.
