20120016624DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CHARACTERIZING MOVEMENTS - The invention proposes a device and a method for characterizing movements performed by an object, notably a limb of a human being instrumented with at least one accelerometer. The invention is particularly useful for determining the direction, the line and the length of the steps of said human being. The invention uses algorithms for processing the signals from the sensor to make it possible to segment the steps by identifying the lifting and the landing of said limb by comparing the signals output from the sensor with thresholds, to determine the direction and the line of the step by comparing the maxima of the values of the signals along two axes substantially parallel to the walking plane and to calculate the length of the step by double integration of the signals according to the direction of the step. The invention is also applicable to hand movements that have trend characteristics similar to those of the steps.01-19-2012

20110016434KNOWLEDGE-BASED POLYMORPH UNDOCKABLE TOOLBAR - A software control method and apparatus for implementing a knowledge-based polymorph undockable toolbar within an object scene. The undockable toolbar can be used to perform actions on objects created and managed by computer software applications. A knowledge-based polymorph undockable toolbar can merges into a relatively small area, tools for executing various commands that would require substantial screen space if represented by standard icons on a toolbar. The present invention can be used to manipulate non-constrained objects or groups of objects included in an assembly that are linked to each other by constraints. The knowledge based polymorph undockable toolbar can also act to reduce the number of user interactions needed to perform a manipulation task.01-20-2011

20120079153COMMUNICATION METHOD AND DEVICE FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE - A communication method is implemented in an on-board network between a master station (M) and a plurality of slave stations (S1, S2, S3, S4), of the type of those compatible with the standard Local Interconnect Network (LIN) protocol in which data frames are sent by the slave stations on a serial bus in response to the sending by the master station of identifiers representative of the required content of the frames. All or part of each of the specific data frames attached to the same predetermined identifier is formed sequentially by each of the slave stations. This enables an optimisation of the load on a LIN network, thus enabling use of this economical standard for all “passenger compartment functions”, and in particular for the management of AFS type advanced lighting systems.03-29-2012
