Abstract: Systems and methods for driver evaluation, rating, and skills improvement are disclosed. A particular embodiment is configured to: receive vehicle data from vehicle subsystems of a vehicle via a vehicle subsystem interface; correlate the vehicle data to a corresponding set of preprocessing events representing activity or state transitions occurring in the vehicle; aggregate the set of preprocessing events into a plurality of data blocks, wherein each data block corresponds to a user-configurable time frame; and transfer the plurality of data blocks to a central server via a network interface and a network.

Abstract: A belt conveyor (10) for an automatic placement machine (50) that includes at least a rotatably mounted pinwheel (12) for conveying a belt (11), a drive (14) with at least one gear wheel (16) for driving the pinwheel (12) and a position-determining device (20) for determining a rotational position of the pinwheel (12), the position-determining device (20) having a first sensor device (30) with at least one magnetoresistive sensor arrangement (31). The disclosure further includes an automatic placement machine (50) having at least one belt conveyor (10).
