An apparatus including a processor unit configured to provide a first high-definition map, a sensor unit configured for providing sensor data representing an environmental condition in a periphery of the apparatus and a receiver unit configured to receive data representing a second high-definition map. The processor unit is configured to fuse the second high-definition map and the sensor data so as to provide the first high-definition map. The apparatus further includes a transmitter unit configured for transmitting a result of fusing the second high-definition map and the sensor data, and includes a command generator unit configured to generate a command signal representing a vehicle control command for a vehicle carrying the apparatus based on the first high-definition map.

The present disclosure relates to the field of modular robot control, and more particularly to a modular robot and a method for calculating a position of a module unit thereof. The modular robot and the position calculation method for module units of the modular robot are characterized in that position information of the module units is determined by recognizing interface identification information of docking parts of adjacent module units, and have the advantage of precise and quick recognition, thereby ensuring the accuracy of a position calculation result of each module unit, and facilitating the widespread application of the modular robot.

A control device for parameterizing a sensor of a measuring system that determines, at least via a virtual twin of the measuring system, a target position of the sensor in a site. Furthermore, the control device transmits the determined target position to the measuring system and/or to a user. The control device furthermore parameterizes the sensor in the measuring site.

Inconspicuous ballistic armor that may be incorporated into or disguised within everyday articles in the environment in which it is deployed. The ballistic armor includes a ballistic shield, an article attached to the front surface of the ballistic shield, and hand/arm straps attached to a rear surface of the ballistic shield. A thin sheet of hardened abrasion-resistant steel may alternatively be affixed to the ballistic shield core and may wrap around the core slightly to allow for attachment of arm straps and hand holds behind the shield. Examples of the article attached to the front surface include a desktop calendar, a whiteboard, corkboard and artwork. The ballistic shield is formed from high strength, lightweight synthetic fiber that can withstand gunfire. The hand/arm straps may be formed from a webbing strap material that is attached, such as by rivets or special fasteners, to the rear surface of the ballistic shield. An autonomous alert and movement tracking system connects the shields to the Internet to allow generation of a map showing locations and movements of shields, and predictive location and movement of the attacker, for use by both the users of the shields and first responders. The shields may also have audio and visual indicators to allow display of alerts.
