Abstract: Method for determining and/or improving a position estimation of a vehicle, comprising a step (a) comprising determining at least three distances of the vehicle from at least three signal generators, wherein the respective distance is a distance between the vehicle and one of the at least three signal generators each. Here, the at least three signal generators each comprise a predetermined position with respect to a moving coordinate system, and the moving coordinate system is a coordinate system with respect to which the position of an unmoved object can change due to a movement of the coordinate origin. Further, the method comprises a step (b) comprising determining and/or improving the position estimation of the vehicle by using the at least three determined distances of the vehicle from the at least three signal generators and the predetermined positions of the at least three signal generators with respect to the moving coordinate system.

Abstract: A method of determining a path along an object includes a step of “determining a reference point of the object in absolute coordinates”, a step of “ascertaining a set of points of the object in absolute coordinates on the basis of further points of the object within a relative coordinate system, conversion of the further points of the object to the absolute coordinate system being effected on the basis of the reference point of the object”, and a step of “determining the path along the object on the basis of the set of points of the object, so that the path extends at a distance from the object”.

Abstract: Embodiments according to a first and second aspect of the present invention are based on the core idea of flying along the object for detecting a feature of an object and detecting at least a part of the object with a capturing unit with a first resolution and providing, for those areas of the object that comprise the feature, images with the second resolution that is higher than the first resolution.

Abstract: Embodiments according to the present invention include a device for providing an electrical test signal, for performing a continuity test of an electrical line of an object, including: a communication module configured to receive an activation signal for switching the device from a passive operating mode to an active operating mode, and to obtain a deactivation signal for switching the device from the active operating mode to the passive operating mode. Furthermore, the device includes a signal generator configured to generate the electrical test signal in the active operating mode. In addition, the device includes an energy source configured to supply the communication module and the signal generator with energy. The device also includes a coupling-in module configured to couple the electrical test signal into the electrical line of the object in the active operating mode.

Abstract: A method for detecting an object describable by a plurality of predetermined features comprises flying along the object and detecting several portions of the object using at least one recording unit. Each of the portions is detected multiple times from different positions of the recording unit to generate a set of images. Position and location information of the recording unit are associated to each image. Additionally, the method has recognizing features in the image sets and determining the positions and/or locations of the features using the position and location information of the images which contain the features.
