Abstract: An apparatus and method for data fusion between heterogeneous sensors are disclosed. The method for data fusion between the heterogeneous sensors may include identifying image data and point cloud data for a search area by each of a camera sensor and a LiDAR sensor that are calibrated using a marker board having a hole; recognizing a translation vector determined through calibrating of the camera sensor and the LiDAR sensor; and projecting the point cloud data of the LiDAR sensor onto the image data of the camera sensor using the recognized translation vector to fuse the identified image data and point cloud data.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode assembly, a battery, and a battery pack and a vehicle including the same. In the electrode assembly, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound based on a winding axis to define a core and an outer circumference. The first electrode includes a first active material portion coated with an active material layer and a first uncoated portion not coated with an active material layer along a winding direction. At least a part of the first uncoated portion is defined as an electrode tab by itself. The first uncoated portion includes a first portion adjacent to the core of the electrode assembly, a second portion adjacent to the outer circumference of the electrode assembly, and a third portion interposed between the first portion and the second portion. The first portion or the second portion has a smaller height than the third portion in the winding axis direction.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode assembly, a battery, and a battery pack and a vehicle including the same. In the electrode assembly, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound based on an axis to define a core and an outer circumference. The first electrode includes an uncoated portion at a long side end thereof and exposed out of the separator along a winding axis direction of the electrode assembly. A part of the uncoated portion is bent in a radial direction of the electrode assembly to form a bending surface region that includes overlapping layers of the uncoated portion, and in a partial region of the bending surface region, the number of stacked layers of the uncoated portion is 10 or more in the winding axis direction of the electrode assembly.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a technical idea for providing a delivery service on regular and irregular roads using autonomous vehicles. More specifically, the present invention relates to technology in which, on a regular road, a lead vehicle and at least one droid vehicle are coupled to each other and a delivery service is provided based on autonomous driving; and on an irregular road, the coupling between the lead vehicle and the droid vehicle is automatically released and the droid vehicle provides a delivery service by remotely controlling the driving of the droid vehicle by the lead vehicle in the last mile delivery section corresponding to the irregular road.
