"The second drive unit 4 is mounted on the hybrid vehicle to deliver a power or a torque of a rear motor 30 to a pair of rear wheels 3R and 3L. Here, it is to be noted that the left rear wheel 3L is not illustrated in FIG2 for the sake of illustration. A motor-generator having a generating function may also be used as the rear motor 30 (abbreviated as \"MGR\" in the drawings), and the rear motor 30 is connected to a transmission 31. A gear stage of the transmission 31 may be selected from a speed reducing stage in which the torque of the rear motor 30 is multiplied, and a fixed stage in which the torque of the rear motor 30 is transmitted without being multiplied.",
"As shown in FIG2, the transmission 31 is a single-pinion planetary gear unit comprising: a sun gear 32; a ring gear 33 as an internal gear arranged concentrically with the sun gear 32; pinion gears 34 interposed between the sun gear 32 and the ring gear 33 while being meshed with both gears 32 and 33; and a carrier 35 supporting the pinion gears 34 in a rotatable manner.",
"In the transmission 31, the sun gear 32 is connected to the rear motor 30 to serve as an input element, and the carrier 35 is connected to an output shaft 36 to serve as an output element. In order to establish the fixed stage in the transmission 31, a third clutch CL3 is arranged in the second drive unit 4. For example, a friction clutch and a dog clutch may also be used as the third clutch CL3 to selectively connect the sun gear 32 to the ring gear 33 or the carrier 35, or to connect the ring gear 33 to the carrier 35. In the second drive unit 4 shown in FIG2, specifically, the third clutch CL3 is adapted to connect the ring gear 33 to the carrier 35 to establish the fixed stage in the transmission 31."

Although only the first sensor unit 61, the second sensor unit 62 and the third sensor unit 63 are described in the following detailed description, any features and method steps described in relation to the first, second and third sensor units 61, 62, 63 may also be applied to the fourth, fifth and sixth sensor units 64, 65, 66. The sensor units 61-66 will be further described in relation to FIG1b.",
"FIG1b illustrates a perspective view of an exemplary sensor unit 61-66 comprised by the UAV 1 illustrated in FIG1a. This exemplary sensor unit 61 - 66 comprises two different types of sensors: an RGB camera 610 and two IR cameras 620. It further comprises an IR laser projector 630. By combining two images obtained by the two IR cameras 620 it is possible to extract depth information from the image, i.e. to create a depth image. The IR laser projector 630 may be used to further illuminate the scene in order to enable extraction of depth information in any lighting condition and surface textures. The depth image may if desired be combined with an RGB image acquired by the RGB camera 610, to create a stereo image or a 3D image. When performing the comparison of a first and a second image according to the present invention, using the described exemplary sensor units 61-66, this may include comparing a first and a second depth image, a first and a second IR image, a first and a second RGB image, a first and a second 3D image and/or a first and a second stereo image."

One particular location is shown in FIG1A along an aft shaft portion 100 of the HPC rotor shaft. The exemplary location is just ahead of a junction (e.g., splined) with a forward portion of the HPT rotor shaft. ",
"The exemplary circumferential array of mounting features comprises a circumferential array of radial holes 102 in an axial flange 104. As distinguished from variations on the '846 publication, these holes are discrete/discontiguous rather than being arbitrary portions of an annular slot. The axial flange 104 extends aftward from a junction with a radial flange 106 that extends radially outward from the main portion of the shaft 100. This exemplary configuration creates a channel 110 (FIG3) open aftward at an opening/gap 112 extending radially outward from an outer diameter (OD) surface 114 of the shaft to an inner diameter (ID) surface 116 of the flange 104. A base of the channel is thus formed by an aft surface 118 of the radial flange 106. An outer diameter (OD) surface of the flange 104 is shown as 120 and an aft rim of the flange 104 is shown as 122. An inner diameter (ID) surface of the shaft main portion is shown as 124.",
"Relative to alternative embodiments, the exemplary configuration may offer several advantages depending on where used. Several of these advantages may accommodate limited access. A small amount of axial access is required to insert the weight through the gap 112 (FIG3). Depending upon driver configuration, either a small amount of radial access or a small amount of axial access may be required for the driver. For example, on the one hand, if there is great radial access but little axial access, a long driver shaft may be used extending along the axis 510, 520. On the other hand, if there is limited radial access, a right angled driver may need only a small amount of space radially past the OD surface 120 (FIG3) ."

"Referring to FIG17, the control circuit 32 operates the sensor device 99 in step 110 and measures the environmental attribute (field) in the same and different directions using the sensor element 22 pairs in step 200 to produce values (e.g., field vectors) in step 210. The control circuit 32 further converts the values (e.g., field vectors) into a common coordinate system in step 220, if necessary. The values (e.g., field vectors) are compared using the control circuit 32 to determine if they match in step 230. If the environmental attribute (field) measurements match within a pre-determined tolerance range, an environmental attribute measurement signal is output in step 170, where the measurement signal can be a signal derived from any one of or combination of the first, second, third, fourth and fifth field vectors or their converted equivalents. Alternatively, a fault is determined if the field vectors in a common coordinate system are not all the same within the predetermined tolerance range and a faulty sensor signal output (step 180)."

"According to one embodiment of the invention, the interferences detection device monitors the AGC level variations that are above a threshold. FIG8 illustrates AGC level variations of a receiver according to the invention, in a scenario where jamming is intended. Jamming occurs at time 801. Before this moment in time, the AGC level 802 is almost constant. When jamming occurs, due to the power level of the jamming signal, the AGC level 803 suddenly decreases. That is this sudden variation that is monitored by the spoofing detection device. For instance, the threshold for jamming detection may be set to 5dB over a predefined period of time."

"In a possible implementation, the target micro kernel may or may not be a micro kernel on the server where the failing virtual PLC is located. In a possible implementation, when the soft guardian determines the target micro kernel on which the specified virtual is to be reconstructed, the soft guardian needs to take into account whether each micro kernel is preinstalled with the system program of the virtual PLC, in addition to the operating state of the each physical core on the each server, and the operating state of the each micro kernel on the each physical core. In order to improve the reconstruct speed, when the load of the micro kernel preinstalled with the system program of the virtual PLC and the load of the physical core of the micro kernel are allowable, the micro kernel preinstalled with the system program of the virtual PLC is given preference as the target micro kernel. FIG5C is a schematic structural diagram of deployed internal components of a server after the virtual PLC3 fails according to an embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in FIG5C, the micro kernel on which neither RTE nor guardian kernel is preinstalled can be referred to as vacant slot. The micro kernel-C is preinstalled with the guardian kernel, and the soft guardian can be deployed on the micro kernel-C. The micro kernels on which the RTE is deployed but the virtual PLC isn't deployed include the micro kernel-B, micro kernel-E and micro kernel-D. After the virtual PLC3 fails, the server on which the virtual PLC3 runs can reconstruct the virtual PLC3 on any one of the micro kernel-B, micro kernel-E and micro kernel-D. The soft guardian 2, which monitors the virtual PLC3, can determine which micro kernel is used for deploying the virtual PLC3. The soft guardian 2, which monitors the virtual PLC3, determines the micro kernel-B as the target micro kernel on which the virtual PLC3 is to be reconstructed, according to the operating state of each physical core on each server, and the operating state of each micro kernel of each physical core. When the server on which the virtual PLC3 runs reconstructs the virtual PLC3, the server starts RTE preinstalled on the micro kernel-B and executes the user program compiled result file of the virtual PLC3 according to the reconstruction instruction."

"First, an example of a situation in which the present invention is applied will be described using FIG1. FIG1 is a diagram illustrating an example of a situation in which an object recognition apparatus 1 according to a specific embodiment of the present invention is applied. The object recognition apparatus 1 may be a system, installed in a production line or the like, that recognizes objects 2 within a tray 3 using an image obtained from an image capturing device 11. The objects 2 to be recognized are piled randomly in the tray 3. Here, the objects 2 may include multiple types of objects, or may be a single type of object having a different appearance depending on the viewpoint. By obtaining images from the image capturing device 11 at predetermined intervals of time and carrying out a template matching process, the object recognition apparatus 1 executes a process of recognizing the position and attitude of each object 2 included in the image captured by the image capturing device 11 (also called an \"input image\" hereinafter), and outputs a result of that process to a programmable logic controller (PLC) 4, a display 12, or the like. A recognition result, which is the output of the object recognition apparatus 1, is used in picking/robot control, control of processing devices or printing devices, the inspection, measurement, and so on of the objects 2, and so on."

The time period T1 in the diagram 500 has motion base level 512 and corresponding motion trigger level 522. The motion trigger level 522 lies relatively close to the motion base level 512. This configuration is thereby sensitive and will trigger for small amounts of detected motion in the specific portion of the scene. This configuration may, e.g., be active for a scene during the night, where no motion is expected. The motion base level 514 for time period T2 is higher than the motion base level 512. The motion trigger level 524 for time period T2 is higher than the motion trigger level 522. Thus, the configuration during T2 is not as sensitive as the configuration during T1. The configuration during T2 may, e.g., be active for a scene during a morning rush hour. The time periods T3 and T4 has the same motion base level 516. The motion trigger levels 526 and 528 are different.

"As shown in FIG6, each exchanger plate 20 comprises a plurality of pockets 25 (in particular, eight pockets 25), each of which has a parallelepiped shape, reproduces in negative the shape of a corresponding thermoelectric cell 24, and houses therein the thermoelectric cell 24, surrounding said thermoelectric cell 24 on five sides. In other words, each exchanger plate 20 comprises a plurality of seats, parallelepipedal cavities (i.e. the pockets 25), which reproduce in negative the shape of the thermoelectric cells 24 and house said thermoelectric cells 24. In particular, each pocket 25 has a rectangular-shaped bottom wall which is arranged in direct contact with the cold side of the corresponding thermoelectric cell 24 and a side wall, which projects perpendicularly from the bottom wall, surrounds the bottom wall on the four sides, and is arranged in direct contact with a side wall of the corresponding thermoelectric cell 24; in this way, each pocket 25 surrounds the corresponding thermoelectric cell 24 on five sides. The hot side of each thermoelectric cell 24 is allowed to be hit by the flow of hot air (to be cooled down) coming from the compressor 15 of the turbocharger 13, whereas the cold side of each thermoelectric cell 24 is located inside a corresponding pocket 25 and rests on a wall of the exchanger plate 20."
