A material includes a transparent substrate coated with a stack of thin layers including at least one silver-based functional metallic layer, at least one zinc-based metallic layer, located above and/or below a silver-based functional metallic layer, and at least one nickel oxide-based layer located above and/or below this silver-based functional metallic layer and separated from this layer by at least one crystallized dielectric layer.

A chemical vapour deposition process for preparing a coated glass substrate, said process comprising at least the following steps in sequence: a) providing a glass substrate having a surface, b) depositing a layer based on SiCO and/or SiNO on the surface of the glass substrate, c) exposing the layer based on SiCO and/or SiNO to a gaseous mixture (i) comprising water, and d) subsequently depositing a layer based on a TCO over the layer based on SiCO and/or SiNO.

The present disclosure provides a coating-attached glass article having improved easy-to-clean properties. The provided coating-attached glass article includes a glass substrate and an easy-to-clean coating on the glass substrate. The coating includes cerium oxide, and a contact angle of water on a surface of the coating is 60° or more and 130° or less. The coating improves, for example, the ease of removal of dirt resulting from a water drop adhered to the surface. The glass substrate may be formed of a reinforced glass.

A coated glazing includes a transparent glass substrate and a coating located on the glass substrate. The coating includes at least the following layers in sequence starting from the glass substrate: a first layer having a refractive index of more than 1.6, an optional second layer having a refractive index that is less than the refractive index of the first layer, a third layer based on tin dioxide doped with fluorine, and a fourth layer based on titanium oxide, wherein the fourth layer is photocatalytic.

An end-to-end system for data generation, map creation using the generated data, and localization to the created map is disclosed. Mapstreams—or streams of sensor data, perception outputs from deep neural networks (DNNs), and/or relative trajectory data—corresponding to any number of drives by any number of vehicles may be generated and uploaded to the cloud. The mapstreams may be used to generate map data—and ultimately a fused high definition (HD) map—that represents data generated over a plurality of drives. When localizing to the fused HD map, individual localization results may be generated based on comparisons of real-time data from a sensor modality to map data corresponding to the same sensor modality. This process may be repeated for any number of sensor modalities and the results may be fused together to determine a final fused localization result.
