Abstract: A mobile station is configured to operate a reception of audio and/or visual content from a remote server of audio and/or visual contents connected to the network and to operate restitution of the audio and/or visual content, the content transiting, between the reception and the restitution, via a data reception buffer of the mobile station. The method includes i) triggering a sending, to a roaming management device of the network, of a first piece of information according to which roaming of the mobile station is prohibited, when a first quantity of data available in the reception buffer, lower than a first predetermined threshold, is detected, then, ii) triggering a sending, to the roaming management device, of a second piece of information according to which roaming of the mobile station is authorized, when a second quantity of data available in the reception buffer, greater than a second predetermined threshold, is detected.

Abstract: A method for generating a rules package describing the current traffic situation of a motor vehicle. A traffic sign recognition unit monitors the area in front of the motor vehicle, and is used to generate video data. Traffic signs are recognized and an encoder/decoder unit generates first sensor data and transmits them to an evaluation unit, which encodes the recognized traffic sign. As a function of the first sensor data, the evaluation unit requests second sensor data, which characterize the current traffic situation, from at least one further sensor. In response, the encoder/decoder unit encodes these second sensor data, transmits them to the evaluation unit and the latter compares them along with the first sensor data to traffic rules stored in a database. Individual traffic rules are selected and from the selected rules. a rules package is created which contains the selected traffic rules.

Abstract: Methods and systems for assessing and/or treating visual disorders, such as discorder in accommodative ability and/or vergence ability, of a person are provided. Assessment and training exercises can be performed utilizing a computerized system in communication with a head-mountable display (HMD), such as a virtual or augmented reality display, which can display visual targets at various vergence and accommodative demands.
