    摘要: A method for the automatic light control for a motor vehicle with a camera sensor for monitoring the environment in front of the motor vehicle is presented. With the camera sensor, an image sequence of the motor vehicle environment in front of the motor vehicle is recorded. The lane of the own motor vehicle is estimated from the image data. At least one evaluation window along the lane is set in the image, so that preceding and oncoming motor vehicles are recorded. Points of light in the image sequence are pursued (tracked). On the basis of the image data, the lights of other motor vehicles are detected, and the front headlights are controlled in such a manner that the drivers of other motor vehicles are not blinded.

Here, at least one first category for passive, illumined reflectors and at least one second category for self-radiating, moving lights, in particular motor vehicle lights, is provided. For this purpose, the time progression of the intensity of a point of light is analysed. On the basis of the intensity fluctuation, points of light are categorised as motor vehicle lights or as reflectors.

    摘要: A method for determining at least one threshold value S for distinguishing, in the dark, between reflectors and vehicle lights that are recorded as light spots by a camera sensor oriented towards the surroundings of a vehicle. The camera sensor records a series of images of the surroundings of the vehicle. At least one light spot in the series of images is tracked. When the tracking of a light spot is completed, at least one parameter (for example the maximum intensity Imax of the light spot in the entire series of images, or the lifetime τ of the light spot) is determined from measured values, for example from the intensity of the light spot in each image. The threshold value S is then adapted to the determined parameter/s. The determined parameter value of the light spot is included in a frequency distribution of the parameter values from previously tracked light spots. A new threshold value for distinguishing between vehicle lights and reflectors is determined from the updated frequency distribution of the parameter values. After temporal filtering a new threshold value for distinguishing between reflectors and vehicle lights is fixed.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for distinguishing between approaching vehicle lights (VL) and retroreflectors (R) in the dark, which are recorded as light surfaces by an image recording device oriented towards the surroundings of a vehicle. The image recording device records at least one image of the vehicle surroundings. The image is evaluated by an image processing unit. Light surfaces present on the image are analyzed. A decision is then taken as to whether the light surface is a vehicle light (VL) or a retroreflector (R). Light surfaces whose optical interaction with other objects is shown in the image are identified as vehicle lights (VL).

    摘要: A non-contact method is described for acquiring the accurate charge-voltage data on miniature test sites of semiconductor wafer wherein the test sites are smaller than 100 μm times 100 μm. The method includes recognizing the designated test site, properly aligning it, depositing a prescribed dose of ionic charge on the surface of the test site, and precise measuring of the resulting voltage change on the surface of the test site. The method further compromises measuring of the said voltage change in the dark and/or under strong illumination without interference from the laser beam employed in the Kelvin Force probe measurement of the voltage. The method enables acquiring of charge-voltage data without contacting the measured surface of the wafer and without contaminating the wafer. Thus, the measured wafer can be returned to IC fabrication line for further processing.
