摘要:
In accordance with the equipment of the present invention, the communication over the entire region of a wide working site can be performed without a cost increase due to the installation of auxiliary equipment, the mutual control of vehicles can be performed with a light burden on a monitoring station without sacrificing safety, and when a failure occurs to transmission/reception equipment, the failure can be quickly and accurately confirmed, and accordingly the abnormality can be quickly and properly dealt with. In the of the present invention, first transmission/reception system for transmitting/receiving at least command data between the monitoring station and a plurality of vehicles via a first communication system which enables wireless communication over the distances between the monitoring station and the vehicles is provided in the monitoring station and the vehicles respectively. Second transmission/reception system for transmitting/receiving position data measured by vehicle position measurement between the vehicles via a second communication system which enables wireless communication over the distances between the vehicles and enables faster data transmission/reception than the first communication system is provided in the vehicles respectively. The respective vehicles judge the approach of another vehicle by transmitting position data between the vehicles via the second transmission/reception system provided in the vehicles respectively, so that the mutual position relationships between the vehicles can be monitored.
摘要:
A network type exposure unit connected via a communication network to other exposure units or to an information processor determines whether or not exposure work information of the instructed kind of exposure work is in the storage thereof. When the instructed exposure work information is determined to be non-existent, the unit inquires of the other exposure units or a host equipment whether or not there is therein the exposure work information, and decides executability of the exposure work requested to be started from the result thereof. The exposure work information can be transferred between arbitrary units, thereby alleviating complexity of maintenance and management of the exposure work information.

A stability control system (24) for an automotive vehicle as includes a plurality of sensors (28-37) sensing the dynamic conditions of the vehicle and a controller (26) that controls a distributed brake pressure to reduce a tire moment so the net moment of the vehicle is counter to the roll direction. The sensors include a speed sensor (30), a lateral acceleration sensor (32), a roll rate sensor (34), and a yaw rate sensor (20). The controller (26) is coupled to the speed sensor (30), the lateral acceleration sensor (32), the roll rate sensor (34), the yaw rate sensor (28). The controller (26) determines a roll angle estimate in response to lateral acceleration, roll rate, vehicle speed, and yaw rate. The controller (26) changes a tire force vector using brake pressure distribution in response to the relative roll angle estimate.

In a method for the avoidance of rollover phenomena in semitrailers with the emission of warning signals for the driver of the vehicle when driving inappropriately, the center of gravity of the load of the semitrailer is calculated in an on-board computer. From the center of gravity thus determined and the known weight of the loaded semitrailer, the on-board computer calculates a rollover limit as a function of instantaneous driving parameters, on exceeding of which limit a warning is issued to the driver of the vehicle.
摘要:
In the interior of a vehicle markings (10, 13) are positioned on vehicle elements (2, 8, 7, 19) that are detected by a stereo camera (1). Said markings are configured as reflectors or as light emitters. The stereo camera (1) detects brightness differences between the respective marking and the immediate surroundings of the marking and detects the position of the marking. An evaluation unit (110) mounted downstream of the stereo camera (1) calculates the surface structure of the respective vehicle element on the basis of the predetermined dimensions of the vehicle elements.
摘要:
Disclosed are systems and methods of determining or estimating an orientation of a spacecraft. An exemplary system generates telemetry data, including star observations, in a satellite. A ground station processes the telemetry data with data from a star catalog, to generate display data which, in this example, includes observed stars overlaid with catalog stars. An operator views the display and generates an operator input signal using a mouse device, to pair up observed and catalog stars. Circuitry in the ground station then processes two pairs of observed and catalog stars, to determine an orientation of the spacecraft.

A system and/or method is/are provided which reduces the likelihood of air vehicles being utilized by terrorists as weapons. In certain embodiments, when it is determined that the air vehicle is about to hit a designated structure (e.g., high-rise office building or apartment building, national monument, and/or government building), a controller automatically takes control of the air vehicle away from the pilot(s) and causes an automatic computerized pilot (auto-pilot) to take over control of the air vehicle and causes it to land at a selected airport and/or runway.
摘要:
A vehicle communication system with display and operator control unit, and having a data bus and components connected thereto, including at least one display/operator control unit and a computing unit which controls the latter. A graphic user interface, which is based on the HTML/XML page format, is implemented in the at least one display/operator control unit and/or the computing unit.
摘要:
A method and a device for controlling operational sequences, particularly in a vehicle, at least one sensor having a connection unit being connected via a bus system to at least one control unit for controlling the operational sequences, the control unit likewise having a connection unit, and sensor information being transmitted to the control unit, the control unit reading in and/or processing the sensor information at specifiable synchronization points, the synchronization points being ascertained independently of one another in the control unit and in the sensor by, in each case, a synchronization element in such a way with an allowance that the sensor information is available at the synchronization point for the control unit in a manner that it is able to be read in and/or processed.
摘要:
A logistics system and method are mounted on a vehicle and utilize vehicle position control for logistics operations, such as loading and unloading material to and from the vehicle. The position control can be GPS-based and/or based on linear movement of the vehicle, such as movement of a railcar along a rail track. A computer-based position control subsystem mounted on the vehicle is connected to and operates vehicle-mounted components for performing the logistics functions.
