    Abstract: A measuring device for determining a gas concentration includes a gas-sensitive element, a sensing device, a stimulation unit, and a processing unit. The gas-sensitive element is configured to absorb a gas. The sensing device is configured to determine a parameter of the gas-sensitive element in a predetermined time period, where the parameter depends on an absorbed quantity of the gas. The stimulation unit is configured to stimulate the gas-sensitive element and accelerate desorption of the gas out of the gas-sensitive element. The processing unit is configured to determine a rate of change of the parameter, to control the stimulation such that a concentration of the gas in the gas-sensitive element lies outside of an equilibrium state, and to determine the gas concentration based on the rate of change.

    Abstract: A method for operating smart glasses includes an input unit and/or output unit and a gaze detection arrangement, wherein the gaze detection arrangement detects any eye movement of an eye including the steps of irradiating at least one wavelength-modulated laser beam to the eye, detecting an optical path length of the emitted laser beam based on laser feedback interferometry of the emitted laser radiation with backscattered radiation from the eye, detecting a Doppler shift of the emitted and backscattered radiation based on the laser feedback interferometry, and detecting an eye velocity based on the Doppler shift, and wherein the input unit and/or output unit is operated based on the optical path length and/or the eye velocity.

    Abstract: A method for operating a MEMS system having a projection unit for providing an image via a light beam, and a deflecting unit for the two-dimensional deflection of the at least one light beam. The method includes: driving the deflecting unit via a reference signal, so that the deflecting unit periodically deflects a light beam at least two-dimensionally, measuring a controlled variable of the deflecting unit that corresponds to an actual position of the deflected light beam, ascertaining a current deviation of the controlled variable from a target variable that corresponds to a target position of the light beam, calculating a compensating variable based on the ascertained deviation, controlling the deflecting unit and/or controlling the projection unit based on the calculated compensating variable for reducing the deviation of the light beam from the target position. The compensating variable is additionally calculated based on an earlier deviation in an earlier period.

    Abstract: A method for ascertaining a viewing direction of an eye. A laser beam emitted by a laser source is passed over at least two scanning points on the eye, using a reflection element and a deflecting element. A self-mixing effect of the scanning laser beam reflected by the eye into the laser source is used, in order to determine, for the at least two scanning points, the optical path length from the laser source to the at least two scanning points on the surface of the eye and/or a reflectivity of the eye at the at least two scanning points.

    Abstract: A projection device for smart glasses. The projection device includes an image-generation unit for generating at least one first ray of light representing first image information, and a second ray of light representing second image information. The first ray of light and the second ray of light differ from each other with regard to a beam divergence. In addition, the first image information and the second image information differ from each other with regard to a perceivable image sharpness. Moreover, the projection device includes at least one deflection element, which is configured to display the first image information within a first field of view of an eye using the first ray of light, and to display the second image information within a second field of view of the eye disposed outside the first field of view, using the second ray of light.
