Abstract:
A thin film with improved surface properties in terms of its ability to be lacquered, printed and laminated made of non-beater sized paper contains a pigment coating on the printing or lacquering side and is impregnated with impregnating resins starting from the side opposite the pigment coating.
Abstract:
A method and device that increase the performance of prior art systems that recognize and display the contents of traffic signs. The amount of computer capacity required for real time operation is reduced and the display quality of the contents of known traffic signs is improved. The system for recognizing and/or displaying traffic signs comprises a camera and an evaluation unit connected thereto for image recognition and/or display. The system uses information stemming from at least one map-based navigation system and/or one travel information system in order to recognize and/or display the contents of traffic signs.
Abstract:
The opening of vehicle doors often leads to collisions with stationary obstacles that are not visible to the occupants or with moving obstacles that approach the vehicle without being noticed. Thus to avoid collisions when vehicle doors are opened, the aim of the invention is to take any modifications to the environmental situation of the vehicle as a result of a movement of the vehicle and the detected objects into consideration. This allows a collision of the vehicle doors with the objects to be reliably avoided. To achieve this, in a first step the portable trajectory of a vehicle is determnined. In an additional step, the objects in the vicinity of the vehicle are detected and probable trajectories of said detected objects are determined. Respective probability ranges are then defined both for the vehicle and the pivoting zone of the vehicle doors and for the detected objects. The probability ranges of the pivoting zones of the vehicle doors are respectively compared with the individual probability ranges of the objects, in order to determine whether they overlap. If an overlap is identified, a response; signal that indicates the risk of a collision is generated.

Abstract:
The invention concerns a process and a device, which make it possible to reliably, with the least amount of computing power, recognize traffic signs and to display these as memory aids for an observer. Image data of an image sensor are analyzed and classified in an information processing unit, and on the basis of the results classification image segments and/or symbolic image representing data stored in a memory unit are recorded in a memory unit and are displayed by means of a display unit. In the further processing of the image data, extracted objects are separated and classified into traffic sign specific upper classes and lower classes. Subsequently, a synthetic image of a traffic sign is generated, stored in a memory unit, and displayed by means of a display unit.
