  • Patent number: 9075137
    Abstract: Method and system for determining, via sensor network, position of GNSS receiver arranged in a motor vehicle intentionally is impaired in a targeted manner by interference source. Sensor network includes traffic route points having at least one sensor to detect a presence of interference source. Method includes detecting, as motor vehicle passes one of traffic route points, an interference signal emitted by interference source and/or a received signal of GNSS receiver impaired by interference source by the at least one sensor of the one traffic route point; processing the detected signals to establish whether interference source is present in passing motor vehicle; and when the presence of interference source established, generating information that signals at least a location of the one traffic route point and the interference source in the motor vehicle. A position of the motor vehicle is determined from the location of the traffic route point.

  • Patent number: 6603458
    Abstract: An electromagnetic display apparatus includes a panel having substantially square pixel, which are divided into two parts. Each pixel is provided with a rotatably-mounted, bistable tilting flap, which is asymmetrical in relation to its rotational axis. The tilting flap covers one of the two portions of the panel surface in the pixel zone when the flap lies in each of its two stable positions. The side of the tilting flap facing the front side of the panel and the portion of the panel in the pixel zone, which is covered by the tilting flap and the other portion of the panel in the pixel zone has a second color. A permanent magnet is fitted to the tilting flap in close proximity to the rotational axis. The tilting flap is displaced from a first position into a second position by an electromagnet, which is located on the reverse side of the panel and is allocated to the pixels and which has a coil body and core.
