Abstract: A method and telecommunication equipment item for detecting a cable of a network of cables, in particular of a network of electrical cables, especially ones which are not detectable to the naked eye. For example, a network of electrical cables may be embedded inside the partitions of a building. The telecommunication equipment item has a receiver and a detector of a predefined electrical signal injected into a network of cables as a function of electromagnetic signals received by the receiver. Thus, the receiver is not required to be a specific equipment item dedicated solely to this use but may be implemented in a telecommunication equipment item with which users are widely equipped such as a smartphone, a tablet, etc.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to the field of transport, particularly motor vehicles. A motor with predictive adjustment is described, as well as a motor controller of a vehicle, which is capable of automatically adjusting a physical parameter of a motor, such as the width of the air gap of an electric motor. A motor of a vehicle can include at least one physical parameter capable of being adjusted according to characteristic data predicted from the current path of the vehicle based on data provided by at least one vehicle motor sensor. Thus, the motor can be automatically adjusted according to characteristic data predicted from the current path based on the data of a motor sensor for optimizing the use of the motor, with respect to a parameter such as power consumption, transmission efficiency, or rotor warming, regardless of the route.

Abstract: A system and a method for providing visual assistance to an individual suffering from motion sickness. The system includes: a sensor configured to measure movement data of a vehicle in real time; an artificial horizon device designed to generate an image of an artificial horizon in real time on the basis of the movement data of the vehicle; and a wearable augmented reality device designed to display the image of the artificial horizon in real time to an individual who is wearing the wearable device and is a passenger in the vehicle.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described which relate to the assistance or guidance of a user in the detection of an element in an area. A search assistant for searching for an element in an area may include a direction changer for changing the direction of emission of a visible signal on the basis of detected relative data of an element sought in the area, the relative data detected by at least one sensor such as an audio sensor or a video sensor. Such a search assistant may use a simple visible signal for guidance toward the element sought in the area. The technology used may be easy to implement, cheap and readily accessible, allowing guidance precision that depends solely on the precision of the known or detected location of the sought object.

Abstract: A data collection network is disclosed. The network includes a plurality of devices and a collection apparatus suitable for collecting data generated by the devices. The network further includes a plurality of data-diode-type equipment items respectively associated with the devices, each device being connected to the collection apparatus via the associated data-diode-type equipment item. Each data-diode-type equipment item is arranged to render unidirectional the connection between the associated device and the collection apparatus, in the direction from the device towards the collection apparatus. Such a network thus makes it possible, in the event of an intrusion into one of the devices or into the collection apparatus, to prevent the intrusion from spreading to other devices.

Abstract: A method for simultaneous localization and mapping of an object in an indoor environment, including autonomous location and mapping. The method includes generating a map of the indoor environment and determining movement of the object on the basis of data captured by the object, the localization and mapping method jointly generating the map and determining the movement. Ambiguity between two positions of an obstacle on a map during generation is thus resolved by taking into account the movement of the object generating the map, without the need for complex implementation elements.

Abstract: An electronic device for performing environmental analysis, in particular a sound-analyzing object for voice assistance. The electronic device includes: a system for monitoring an environment in which the device is placed, and a visual physical indicator which is controlled depending on at least one command parameter delivered by the monitoring system. Thus, the user of the electronic device is able to perceive the object of attention of the monitoring system since the monitoring system provides feedback by using one or more visual indicators that the monitoring system commands.

Abstract: A pressure button for a touch-sensitive surface, a physical interface for a touch-sensitive surface, and a protection element for a touch-sensitive surface, in particular a touch screen of a terminal such as a smart phone or a tablet. The pressure button has a contact switch passing through the pressure button, from the upper surface to the lower surface of said pressure button. The contact switch is suitable for allowing interaction with a terminal via a touch-sensitive surface when the pressure button is positioned on the latter. The user can thus interact with the terminal by using a pressure button without requiring connectors for this interface.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to the field of transport, in particular motor vehicle transport, and to a controller for a ground connection device of a vehicle: such as a tire, a shock absorber, etc. A controller is able to automatically adjust at least one ground connection device of a vehicle as a function of a predicted item of data characteristic of the current journey of the vehicle on the basis of data supplied by at least one sensor of the ground connection device. Thus, the controller makes it possible to optimize the stability of the vehicle regardless of the journey, in particular on a deteriorated road or on bends, in order to avoid the vehicle leaving its trajectory, by taking into consideration various characteristics in relation to the journeys, such as speed, the state of the road surface, weather conditions, the pressure of the tires, or certain accidents.
