Abstract: A patella protection system, and a knee brace including such a patella protection system. The patella protection system including an upper member to be positioned in proximity of an upper part of the wearer's leg, a lower member to be positioned in proximity of a lower part of the wearer's leg and an intermediate guard member to be positioned over the patella and operatively connected to the upper member and the lower member. The upper member and the lower member are designed to move within the intermediate guard member between a straight configuration and an angled/angulated configuration.

Abstract: A combat training system for carrying out and monitoring at least one shooting practice and combat scenarios, comprising: at least two components, with a first component being a firearm and a second component being a target object; a device for sensing position information of each of the at least two components; device for sensing spatial orientation information at least for the at least one firearm of the at least two components; and an information processor, in which position information of the at least two components and the orientation information of the at least one firearm is processed and transformed into at least result information. The at least two components each have a clock, which are time-synchronized with each other and each generate coded time signals with a component identifier which individualizes the respective component, and an event sensor is provided on each of the at least two components.

Abstract: An active neutral point clamped topology based converter includes a plurality of input terminals, an output terminal, a choke, a plurality of switching devices and a control unit. The control unit generates control signals for the switching devices of the converter in such that an SiC switch can be used with low reverse voltage.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a patella protection system (1) comprising an upper member (21) designed to be positioned in proximity of an upper part of the wearer's leg, a lower member (22) designed to be positioned in proximity of a lower part of the wearer's leg and an intermediate guard member (23) designed to be positioned over the patella and operatively connected to the upper member (21) and the lower member (22). The upper member (21) and the lower member (22) are designed to move within the intermediate guard member (23) between a straight configuration and an angulated configuration. The invention also relates to a knee brace (2) comprising such a patella protection system (1).
