Abstract:
A surgical lamp includes a light source, a camera, at least one rotatable polarization filter, and a control device that controls the polarization filter according to the results of an evaluation of the image which is captured by the camera.
Abstract:
An internal-combustion engine can be operated in a homogeneous charge compression ignition mode at least under certain operating conditions. The combustion mixture present in the combustion chamber reaches auto-ignition conditions and ignites itself. The internal-combustion engine includes a triggering unit for triggering the auto-ignition during the homogeneous charge compression ignition mode before the auto-ignition conditions have been reached. The triggering unit is constructed as a corona ignition system and can be operated for triggering the auto-ignition during the homogeneous charge compression ignition mode, particularly by generating a non-thermal plasma.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a data transmission method in which the data to be transmitted are divided into a plurality of subchannels each with a normal component and a quadrature component that is orthogonal to the normal component. The divided data are transmitted in different frequency bands. The frequency bands are arranged with non-equidistant frequency spacings between one another. An error signal is generated at the reception end for each subchannel both for the normal branch and for the quadrature branch and fed to a corresponding reception filter.
Abstract:
A clock has at least one display unit for the real time, at least one input unit for at least one adjustable set-time, if necessary linked to a date, that can be stored in a memory and that triggers a process when it is attained, as well as at least one display unit for the set-time(s). The input unit has at least three main input means. Each main input means allows a moment in time located in the future with respect to the time presently displayed in the set-time display unit to be reached, starting from the real time or from an adjusted set-time that has been programmed immediately beforehand with the same or another main input means. Said future moment in time represents an integral multiple or an integral fraction of an hour and/or the beginning of an explicitly named set period in time adapted to our natural time perception conditioned by culture and tradition.
