Systems, methods and media are disclosed for identifying the crossing of a virtual barrier. A person in a 3D image of a room may be circumscribed by a bounding box. The position of the bounding box may be monitored over time, relative to the virtual barrier. If the bounding box touches or crosses the virtual barrier, an alert may be sent to the person being monitored, a caregiver or a clinician.

A speed limiting mechanisms for turbine-driven fluid distribution apparatus usable with compressible fluid such as compressed air and incompressible fluid such as water. Dynamic viscous damping of the turbine output power train is used to control the rotational speed of the turbine. This prevents overspeeding when the turbine is air driven, and also when the turbine is water driven, under abnormal conditions such as blockage of a bypass area designed to control the turbine speed by limiting flow to the turbine. The same mechanism can be used to impose a lower rotational speed in the turbine during normal operation in conjunction with a turbine optimized for lower speed operation to reduce the required gear reduction in the power train.

A position determining system (PDS)(100) or multiple parameters measurement system (MPMS)(300) particularly useful for translation and rotation measurement of objects having up to five degrees of freedom. A light source (122, 302) provides light beams (124, 304) into at least two channels. Each channel may include an interferometer (310), reflective target (110, 314), beam splitter (128, 312), detector (132, 316), and receiver (318). In concert, the detectors (132, 316) sense horizontal, vertical, and roll position and the receivers (318) sense longitudinal and yaw position change. Optionally, modulation can be imposed on the light beams (124, 304) and phase-sensitive synchronous demodulation used to enhance accuracy.

An arrangement has a furniture door, in particular a fold-sliding-door, and a chamber-formed, cavity for accommodating the furniture door.

The drive device is configured so as to move the furniture door, starting from the, preferably fully, countersunk position within the cavity into the position outside of the cavity.

An integrated circuit (IC) and a method of manufacturing an integrated circuit suited for a particular application. In one embodiment, the IC includes at least two interfaces, a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) and a programmable gate array (PGA). The FPGA has a configuration memory associated therewith and is coupled to the at least two interfaces for communicating data therebetween. The PGA is coupled to and configured to cooperate with the FPGA to adapt the IC to a particular surrounding environment.

A children's bicycle with a bevel gear driving device that includes a pedal intermediate axle, characterized in that the pedal intermediate axle is connected with a drive bevel gear, which drives a connecting rod having bevel gears on both ends thereof, that the bevel gear on the other end of the connecting rod drives the rear wheel bevel gear, and that protecting hoods are provided over the driving bevel gear, the connecting rod with bevel gears, and the rear wheel bevel gear. The driving device avoids the problem of chain falling-off and allows safer use.

The invention discloses a reverse protection controlling method for an automatic gearbox for a vehicle, belonging to the field of automatic gearbox controlling of vehicles. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring a reverse driving signal; judging whether a reverse driving protection condition is tenable or not; sending out a reverse protection request to an engine management system if the reverse driving protection condition is tenable, and sending out a vehicle speed alarm request to an instrument panel module. By providing the reverse protection controlling method for the automatic gearbox for a vehicle, the functions of protection control and vehicle speed alarm to highest vehicle speed limit in the reverse driving process are realized, in terms of active safety and passive safety, a driver is protected from unexpected accident in the reverse driving process.

A vehicle control device includes a recognizer configured to recognize a two-wheeled vehicle dedicated lane that is present adjacent to a subject lane on which a subject vehicle is present, and a driving controller configured to control at least steering of the subject vehicle and cause the subject vehicle to move far away from the two-wheeled vehicle dedicated lane in the subject lane in comparison with a case where the two-wheeled vehicle dedicated lane is not recognized by the recognizer, in a case where the two-wheeled vehicle dedicated lane is recognized by the recognizer.

A device for processing data which is to be transmitted by radio, with the data to be transmitted being in the form of a digital baseband signal (DAT1), has a filter unit (301) for pulse shaping and oversampling of the digital baseband signal (DAT1), a predistortion unit (302, 303) for predistortion of the filtered and oversampled digital baseband signal (DAT2), and a control unit (304, 313) for controlling the predistortion unit (302, 303) as a function of the digital baseband signal (DAT1).

Disclosed are methods and apparatus for finding an element meeting a predetermined condition among an ordered set of N elements. The method subdivides the ordered set of N elements into M subsets, wherein 1<M<N. A particular one of the M subsets contains K elements. The method determines if the particular subset contains an element meeting the predetermined condition. The method also identifies which of the K elements in the particular subset is the first element meeting the predetermined condition.

The invention relates to the technical field of electrician equipment, and discloses a stall protection device for an electrician hand-held motor, which comprises a housing, wherein a supporting housing is fixedly connected to the interior of the housing, a semicircular housing is fixedly connected to the interior of the supporting housing, a coil is fixedly connected to the interior of the semicircular housing, an electrorheological fluid is disposed in the semicircular housing, a rotating gear is movably connected to the interior of the semicircular housing, a conductor is fixedly connectedto the exterior of the rotating gear, and a push rod is movably connected to the exterior of the semicircular housing.
