PARKING A MOTOR VEHICLE
A method for parking a motor vehicle curbside by means of an apparatus, wherein, in a predetermined parking area, a height of a curb is detected by a first detection device of the apparatus, a profile of wheel pulses of a respective wheel sensor of at least one wheel is detected during a driving maneuver for curb parking in the predetermined parking area, and a crossing of the curb edge by the at least one wheel is detected by a second detection device of the apparatus. During the crossing of the curb edge, a correction measure for an odometry module of the apparatus is carried out as a function of the height of the curb.
Hub-mountable wheel-rotation detector
A hub-mountable wheel-rotation detector has an electromagnetic generator to convert rotational mechanical energy into electrical energy sufficient to recharge an internal rechargeable battery and power internal alarm and distance-tracking circuitry. The detector provides a combination of backup alarm and hubodometer functionality in a common device.
Method of image processing and image processing device
A method of image processing is provided. The method may include: determining a candidate tuple from at least two images that are taken at different times, wherein the candidate tuples are determined using at least odometry sensor information. The couple of subsequent images have been detected by a moving image sensor moved by a vehicle. The odometry sensor information is detected by a sensor moved by the vehicle. The method may further include classifying the candidate tuples into a static tuple or a dynamic tuple. The static tuple represents a static object within the couple of subsequent images, and the dynamic tuple represents a moving object within the couple of subsequent images.
