| 20090079839 | VEHICLE DIAGNOSTICS BASED ON INFORMATION COMMUNICATED BETWEEN VEHICLES - A system and method for controlling a convoy of vehicles. The convoy of vehicles including a leader vehicle in communication with a plurality of autonomous follower vehicles. The leader vehicle is configured to receive a first autonomous follower vehicle data and compare the first autonomous follower vehicle data to at least one of a leader vehicle data, a second autonomous follower vehicle data and/or a threshold value. The first autonomous follower vehicle data, the leader vehicle data, the second autonomous follower vehicle data and the threshold value relate to a vehicle performance characteristic. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20090303026 | APPARATUS, METHOD FOR DETECTING CRITICAL AREAS AND PEDESTRIAN DETECTION APPARATUS USING THE SAME - An apparatus, method for detecting critical areas and a pedestrian detection apparatus using the same are provided. An application of the pedestrian detection system is provided to help limit critical urban environment to particular areas. Contrary to traditional pedestrian detection systems that localize every pedestrians appearing in front of the subject vehicle, the apparatus first finds critical areas from urban environment and performs a focused search of pedestrians. The environment is reconstructed using a standard laser scanner but the subsequent checking for the presence of pedestrians is performed by incorporating a vision system. The apparatus identifies pedestrians within substantially limited image areas and results in boosts of timing performance, since no evaluation of critical degrees is necessary until an actual pedestrian is informed to the driver or onboard computer. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20110254833 | MESH ESTIMATION OF TERRAIN - A method for generating a three dimensional grid of terrain includes receiving data representing a three-dimensional point cloud and generating a plurality of slices of the data. The method evaluates the slices using a swarm intelligence algorithm. The method is able to identify both terrain and objects. The terrain can also be identified as traversable terrain. | 10-20-2011 |

| 20100004387 | PROCESS FOR PREPARING GRANULES OF PIGMENTS BY MEANS OF DOUBLE EXTRUSION - A process for the production of a particle composition containing, at least one resin and at least one pigment is described, said process comprising the following steps : •extrusion of a mixture containing said at least one resin and said at least one pigment without induced heating; •subsequent extrusion, with induced heating, of the mixture obtained from the preceding extrusion; •granulation of the mixture thus obtained. With the abovementioned process it is possible to obtain a composition having granules with an average diameter less than 2 microns and a greater homogeneity than the known processes. | 01-07-2010 |
| 20100081745 | METHOD FOR PREPARING PAINTS AND INKS - The present invention relates to a method for preparing paints and/or inks in which a particle composition consisting of pigment dyestuff, an aldehyde, ketone and/or acrylic resin and optionally excipients and/or adjuvants are mixed into at least one organic solvent, water or a mixture thereof. | 04-01-2010 |

| 20110302977 | TUBE BENDING MACHINE WITH AN AUTOMATIC LOADING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC LOADING OF TUBES ON THE BENDING HEAD OF A TUBE BENDING MACHINE - The machine includes: a bending head movable with at least two degrees of freedom in a transverse vertical plane; a first drive is arranged to move the bending head in the plane and to move a tool of the bending head between an open position, in which it defines with a die of the bending head a free space adapted to receive a tube to be bent, and a closed position, in which it clamps the tube against the die. A tube-carrying structure is rotatable about an axis of rotation perpendicular to the plane; a second drive is arranged to cause the tube-carrying structure to rotate about its own axis of rotation; and an electronic control unit is arranged to control the first and second drives so as to move the bending head and the tube-carrying structure in a position such that the tube is received with a desired orientation in the free space between the die and the tool. | 12-15-2011 |
