    Abstract: A controller configured to detect fault conditions in a circuit that operates an electrical-load includes a gate-driver and a voltage-detector. The gate-driver is configured to control a gate-current to a switching-device. The gate-current is controlled such that the switching-device is operated in a linear-state when the switching-device transitions from an on-state to an off-state. The voltage-detector is configured to determine a voltage-drop across the switching-device. The controller is configured to indicate a no-fault condition when the voltage-drop is greater than a voltage-threshold for more time than a no-fault interval after the switching device is operated from the on-state to the linear-state.

    Abstract: A method of determining the distance of an object from an automated vehicle based on images taken by a monocular image acquiring device. The object is recognized with an object-class by means of an image processing system. Respective position data are determined from the images using a pinhole camera model based on the object-class. Position data indicating in world coordinates the position of a reference point of the object with respect to the plane of the road is used with a scaling factor of the pinhole camera model estimated by means of a Bayes estimator using the position data as observations and under the assumption that the reference point of the object is located on the plane of the road with a predefined probability. The distance of the object from the automated vehicle is calculated from the estimated scaling factor using the pinhole camera model.

    Abstract: A mechanically assisted electrical connector including a lever and a slider. The slider is coupled to the lever such that movement of the lever moves the slider. The slider defines a slot that is configured to cooperate with a post of a mating connector in a manner effective to urge the electrical connector and the mating connector together when the lever is moved from a first position to a second position. A ramp angle of the slot is varied to reduce a peak value of an applied force to advance the lever from the first position to the second position when connecting the electrical connector to the mating connector.

    Abstract: A connector assembly including a first connector having a primary locking lever that is configured to mate with a second connector having a primary striker. The primary locking lever includes a beam extending along a mating axis and a primary latch configured to engage the primary striker. The connector assembly includes a connector position assurance (CPA) device slideably mounted to the first connector. The primary latch blocks movement of the CPA device from an initial position to a final position until the first connector and the second connector are fully mated. The CPA device defines a lateral flange that inhibits movement of a secondary latch of the CPA device under the primary latch that would allow the CPA device to move from the initial position prior to the full mating of the first connector and the second connector.

    Abstract: A connector assembly including a first and second connector configured to be connected to the first connector. The first connector has a slide including a cam groove for receiving a latch pin defined by the second connector. The slide is moved by a lever such that the cam groove and the latch pin cooperate to draw the first and second connectors from an uncoupled position to a fully coupled position when moved from an initial to final position. A ratcheting mechanism couples the lever to the slide allowing the lever to return from the final position to the initial position without disconnecting the first and second connectors. The lever is configured to move through more than one stroke from the initial position to the final position to bring the first and second connectors from the uncoupled position to the fully coupled position.
