A method for reading a license plate disposed on a vehicle includes determining whether a license plate image is required, automatically processing the license plate image in response to determining that the license plate image is required, providing at least one verified image, and determining whether to manually read the license plate image by matching the license plate image with the at least one verified image.

A sonar imaging system for a watercraft is disclosed. The sonar imaging system comprises a transducer coupled to the watercraft and having at least one side scanning element and at least one bottom scanning element, an electronic control head unit coupled to the transducer and configured to display sonar images. The downward acoustic elements may be circular and the side scan acoustic elements may be rectangular. A software filter may be provided to remove noise generated by a spark plug or other operation of a motor for the watercraft.

The invention provides a broadband double polarization omnidirectional antenna and a feed method. The feed method concretely comprises the following steps that with the adoption of coaxial arrangement of a horizontal polarization antenna and a vertical polarization antenna, the horizontal polarization antenna are respectively adhered to the upper surface and the lower surface of an adhesion platethrough two vibration arms of a folded dipole; in addition, the two vibration arms are respectively connected with the structures of a feeder inner conductor and a feeder outer conductor, so that thedouble polarization antenna has wider working frequency band width; and meanwhile, the double polarization ceiling antenna has good polarization isolation effect and covering balance, can effectivelyexert the performance of an MIMO antenna in LTE and WLAN systems and can be effectively applied to a 2G network and a 3G network so that the data transmission rate is increased.

A lightweight, flexible, aerating, compressive, thermal bandage. Perforations allow the treatment area to aerate. Thermal capacity of the invention allows for hot or cold treatment in a manner that compressively supports the object undergoing thermal treatment while maintaining maximum mobility. The bandage is made from an elastomer such as polyeurathane with the addition of silicon and vegetable oil. Resin is used to color the product.

A mulching assembly for a mower deck that has one or more cutting chambers includes a channeling plate in each cutting chamber. The channeling plate is configured to optimize air and clipping flow through the cutting chamber for mulching and dispersal of the clippings without disrupting airflow and consequently creating obstructions in the high-pressure outer region of the cutting chamber. Each channeling plate is spaced from the outer perimeter of the cutting chamber, extends in a generally non-radial direction generally parallel to the bottom surface of the cutter deck, and is mounted to the deck directly above the cutting blade in each cutting chamber.

A heat exchanger for use in controlling subject's body temperature during a medical procedure comprises a flexible garment adapted for enveloping portions of the subject's body surface with dedicated sections for enveloping different body parts. Defined within the garment is a continuous, fluid tight space, wherein a flow path for heat-control fluid is defined between fluid inlet and fluid outlet. The inner faces of the garment's internal and external layers are made of a heat-weldable material and are point-welded to one another at a plurality of locations throughout the garment with a distance between two adjacent points being between about 8 to about 20 mm.

The invention relates to a device for a motor vehicle, comprising a rotatably mounted camera unit (10) which can be brought into an inactive position and into an active position by means of a motor, and a protective element (20) that can be rotatably guided about a first axis (21) into a closed position and into an open position, the camera unit (10), in the closed position, being in its inactive position behind the protective element (20) and inaccessible from the exterior, and, in the open position of the protective element (20), the camera unit (10) assuming the active position for recording images. The invention is characterized in that the camera unit (10) can be displaced from the inactive position into the active position about a second axis (11), arranged at a distance to the first axis (21), the protective element (20) is connected to the first axis (21) via a swivel arm (22), and the motor drives a mechanism (30), mounted on the motor vehicle, which is mechanically connected both to the protective element (20) and to the camera unit (10). The mechanism (30) is configured in such a manner that the camera unit (10) is decoupled from the mechanism when it is in the operating state and that the protective element (20) can be displaced from the closed position to the open position, the camera unit (10) remaining in the inactive position.
