TECHNOLOGY FOR DEAD TIME COMPENSATION DURING TRANSVERSE AND LONGITUDINAL GUIDANCE OF A MOTOR VEHICLE
Publication number: 20240067185Abstract: A technique for determining and compensating for a dead time of at least one actuator for lateral guidance or longitudinal guidance of a motor vehicle includes a device including at least one sensor or at least one sensor interface for detecting at least one actual value of a state of motion of the lateral guidance or longitudinal guidance. A unit of determination of the device is configured to determine the dead time of at least one actuator by comparing at least one target value of the state of motion calculated from a dynamic model with the recorded at least one actual value. A control unit of the device is configured to control the actuator depending on the detected state of motion and the certain dead time of at least one actuator, wherein the control unit outputs time-preceding control signals to the actuator around the dead time.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2020Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Tobias Neulen, Stefan Gritsch, Arne-Christoph Hildebrandt, Sven Kraus, Peter Strauss -
Patent number: 11904204Abstract: An exercise device includes a foot support portion pivotably connected to a leg support portion and having a neutral position relative to a pivot axis. The support portion is configured to rotate about the neutral pivot axis in a first direction away from the neutral position and in a second direction away from the neutral position. The second direction is opposite the first direction. The exercise device also includes a resistance mechanism configured to exert a force on the foot support portion about the pivot axis opposite to the respective first and second directions of rotation of the foot support portion about the pivot axis.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2019Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: TS MEDICAL LLCInventors: Mary Anne Tarkington, Peter-Christoph Tarkington Schmidt, David G. Matsuura, Jacob A. Moebius
