Patent number: 11911972Abstract: A method of mechanically securing a first object including a thermoplastic material in a solid state to a second object with a generally flat sheet portion, with a perforation of the sheet portion, and with the sheet portion having an edge along the perforation is provided, wherein the first object is positioned relative to the second object so that the edge is in contact with the thermoplastic material and wherein mechanical vibration energy is coupled into the assembly including the first and second objects until a flow portion of the thermoplastic material due to friction heat generated between the edge and the thermoplastic material becomes flowable and flows around the edge to at least partially embed the edge in the thermoplastic material. After the mechanical vibration stops, the thermoplastic material is caused to re-solidify, whereby the re-solidified thermoplastic material at least partially embedding the edge anchors the first object in the second object.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: WOODWELDING AGInventors: Jörg Mayer, Joakim Kvist, Philipp Bernhard, Laurent Torriani, Mario Weiss, Antonino Lanci, Martin Sigrist, Hannes Merz, Samuel Malzach

Publication number: 20230100803Abstract: Described is a windshield for a vehicle, for example, a motor vehicle, having a peripheral edge region. The peripheral edge region may contain a black print. The windshield may have at least one separate dark display region, which is isolated from the black print in the edge region. The dark display region may be a film laminated in the windshield. Further described are a display device for such a windshield and a motor vehicle having such a windshield.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 12, 2021Publication date: March 30, 2023Applicant: AUDI AGInventors: Ulrich BEIERLEIN, Philipp WEISS

Publication number: 20220413288Abstract: A motor vehicle includes a display system having an image source positioned in a dashboard of the motor vehicle for emitting light beams. A reflection region extends in parallel to a lateral edge of a pane layer of a windshield of the motor vehicle. The reflection region is configured to reflect the light beams to generate a virtual image and the image source includes a one-dimensional switchable strip display. A controller of the motor vehicle is configured to provide, by using the one-dimensional switchable strip display corresponding to the virtual image, at least one of a dynamic running light and a static light strip.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2020Publication date: December 29, 2022Applicant: AUDI AGInventors: Daniel LOTTES, Philipp WEISS, Annegret MATTHAI

Patent number: 11505204Abstract: A first information processing apparatus and a second information processing apparatus communicate with one another. The first information processing apparatus has a first communication device and the second information processing apparatus has a second communication device. The first information processing apparatus displays combined state information of the first and second information processing apparatuses on a first display device, such that the combined state information of the first and second information processing apparatuses is superimposed with surroundings information on the first display device. The second information processing apparatus displays the combined state information of the first and second information processing apparatuses on a second display device.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2021Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: AUDI AGInventors: Daniel Lottes, Philipp Weiss, Marcus Richter

Publication number: 20220073089Abstract: An operating system for a motor vehicle includes an interface having an operating surface and a projector configured to project display content onto the operating surface of the interface. The interface is a portable item freely movable in the motor vehicle. The operating system further includes a capturing device configured to determine an inclination vector of a relative inclination of the operating surface with respect to the projector, and an image processing device configured to generate the display content by graphically distorting an original display content by use of a predetermined pre-distortion function based on the determined inclination vector. The pre-distortion function is set inversely to an optical distortion that occurs due to the relative inclination of the operating surface during the projection of the display content onto the operating surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2019Publication date: March 10, 2022Applicant: AUDI AGInventors: Daniel LOTTES, Philipp WEIß

Patent number: 11145009Abstract: A method for supporting a user in an agricultural activity with a control arrangement that has a mobile device and a server application which communicates with the mobile device. The control arrangement executes an augmented reality routine in which a real-world image generated by a camera and at least one item of added information are displayed in a visually superimposed manner on the mobile device. The server application has a plurality of application modules with which a predefined agricultural scenario is associated, and an amount of added information is stored in the database for each agricultural scenario. The control arrangement automatically determines in which of the predefined agricultural scenarios the mobile device is situated, and a partial amount of the amount of added information stored in the database for the determined agricultural scenario is shown on the display depending on at least one object depicted in the real-world image.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2020Date of Patent: October 12, 2021Assignee: 365FARMNET GROUP KGAA MBH & CO.

Publication number: 20210221227Abstract: At least one electronic display has first and second mirrors separated by a distance. The two mirrors are arranged such that they at least partially overlap in a projection view of both mirrors. An intermediate space is formed in the overlap region between the mirrors. The at least one electronic display is part of a display apparatus having at least one light source emitting light into the intermediate space that is reflectable multiple times by the mirrors to generate an infinity mirror effect, resulting in the generation of an image having a light pattern that appears with an optical depth effect in an image plane of the display apparatus.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2019Publication date: July 22, 2021Applicant: AUDI AGInventors: Daniel LOTTES, Philipp WEIß
