Abstract: In a method for at least partly automated driving in a vehicle, termination of the automated driving function and at least partial transfer of vehicle control to the driver is carried out only after expiration of a takeover time span that is ascertained from the actuation by the driver of a device communicating with the vehicle. The device can be a mobile device.

Abstract: A method for ascertaining a state of drowsiness of a driver of a motor vehicle, movements of at least one eyelid of one eye of the driver being detected, and the state of drowsiness of the driver being determined as a function of the detected movements. It is provided that an instantaneous normal degree of eye opening is determined, that closing movements of the eyelid are monitored based on the normal degree of eye opening, and that the state of drowsiness is determined as a function of the detected closing movements.

Abstract: A method for outputting a drowsiness warning. In this method, a degree of drowsiness of a driver of a vehicle is initially read in. A display signal is subsequently generated as a function of the degree of drowsiness. The display signal includes a sequence of images as the drowsiness warning displayable via a display device of the vehicle and including at least one eye area of the driver.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for determining the stability of a knee joint. The device comprises includes a measuring sensor (14), which can be attached via a fastening device (16) to a lower leg (12) associated with the knee joint (11). The measuring sensor (14) is designed to measure an acceleration in at least one direction (z) during a movement of the lower leg (12). Furthermore, a processing device (18) is provided for processing measured values of the measuring sensor (14) in order to infer the stability of the knee joint (11) from the processed measured values.
