Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided for creating a three-dimensional virtual model of an environment (2) of a motor vehicle (1). The method includes capturing images of the environment (2); determining a plurality of regions (3; 4; 5; 6; 7; 8; 9) in each of the images and calculating a region entropy for each of the regions (3; 4; 5; 6; 7; 8; 9). The method then proceeds by selecting at least one region (4; 9) that has a higher region entropy than other regions (3; 5; 6; 7; 8); and generating the three-dimensional virtual model by first ascertaining three-dimensional coordinates for the selected at least one region (4; 9) and only thereafter ascertaining three-dimensional coordinates for the unselected regions (3; 5; 6; 7; 8). The three-dimensional virtual model includes the three-dimensional coordinates of all regions (3; 4; 5; 6; 7; 8; 9).

Abstract: A method for dynamically adjusting a volume level in an online meeting. The method includes step a. holding an online meeting in which participants can have a conversation with one another. In step b. using an AI algorithm, monitoring and recognizing content of a conversation of the participants in the online meeting and assigning content scores to the content, wherein each participant portion of the participants is assigned a recognized sub-content in the conversation based on the content scores. In step c. using the AI algorithm, recognizing a first intersection of content scores from a plurality of sub-contents, and recognizing a second or more intersections of content scores from other multiple sub-contents. In step d. adjusting volume levels of individual participants, by raising or lowering the volume level of a participant portion for such other participants having one or no intersection with the participant portion.

Abstract: A valve block body for arranging on a drive mount includes multiple process fluid ducts, between which valve seats are arranged. Multiple drive connection sections are assigned to the valve seats, which are arranged on at least one side of the valve block body. Multiple clamping sections are arranged facing away from at least one side of the valve block body.
