Abstract: Described herein are sensor assembly cleaning systems and apparatuses that are adapted to rotate a transparent surface of a sensor assembly independently of a housing of the sensor assembly in order to disperse water, moisture, debris, or the like from the surface. The transparent surface may be a glass window that provides a camera of the sensor assembly with a field-of-view of an external environment. Sensor data captured from various on-board vehicle sensors such as moisture data, image data, vehicle velocity data, or the like can be evaluated against various criteria to determine when and for how long to rotate the transparent surface. Sensor data can be evaluated over a period of time to identify patterns or trends relating to one or more vehicle parameters. An activation schedule for initiating and ceasing rotation of the transparent surface can be determined based on such patterns/trends.

Abstract: The invention relates to a hybrid-electric drive system (10) for multi-engine aircraft (20). The drive system comprises at least one first and second hybrid-electric drive unit (31, 32), each of which has an internal combustion engine (41, 42), a motor-generator unit (71, 72), and a transmission (51, 52) for transmitting drive power to a propeller (61, 62). In a primary operating mode, the propellers (61, 62) obtain the drive power largely or completely from the internal combustion engine (41, 42), which is coupled to the respective transmission (51, 52). In a secondary operating mode, the first or second internal combustion engine (41, 42) provides drive power to the first or second propeller (61, 62) via the first or second transmission (51, 52), and the first or second motor-generator unit (71, 72) transmits drive power, wherein the electric power generated by the first or second motor-generator unit is transmitted to the second or first motor-generator unit (72, 71) via the transmission device (80), and the second or first motor-generator unit then transmits drive power to the second or first propeller (62, 61) via the second or first transmission (52, 51), the second or first internal combustion engine (42, 41) being deactivated or not transmitting any drive power. The invention is advantageous in that: first, the operating range of the thermal machines is optimized, and the specified fuel consumption is reduced; second, the construction is weight-optimized with respect to high-capacity battery-based hybrid designs; third, the operating time of the individual thermal machines is significantly reduced with an alternating usage with respect to the aircraft operating hours; and fourth, the operational safety is increased for a safety-relevant failure of a thermal machine and the prevention of asymmetrical thrust.

Abstract: Various example embodiments relate to relate to network nodes (20A; 20B), methods and computer program products configured to hand over a communication link between a cell and user equipment (10) in a wireless communication network from a source cell (40A) to a target cell (40B; 40C). According to various, but not necessarily all, embodiments of the invention there is provided a node (20A), comprising: means configured to establish a communication link between a source cell (40A) and user equipment (10); means configured to transmit a series of data packets to the user equipment (10), each data packet comprising an associated sequence identifier; means to receive an acknowledgement of successful receipt of a data packet of the series by user equipment (10), the acknowledgement comprising an indication of the successfully received data packet sequence identifier; means configured to receive an indication of an identified handover target cell (40B; 40C); means configured to request handover of the user equipment (10) to the identified handover target cell (40B; 40C); means configured to receive an acknowledgement of handover request from the identified handover target cell (40B; 40C); and means to forward data packets to be transmitted to user equipment (10) to the identified target cell (40B; 40C), the forwarded data packets comprising the indication of associated sequence identifier and the most recent successfully received data packet sequence identifier. Also provided is a node (20B), comprising: means configured to receive a request for handover of user equipment (10) from a source cell (40A) to a target cell (40B; 40C); means configured to transmit an acknowledgement of handover request to the source cell (40A); and means to receive forwarded data packets forming a series of data packets to be transmitted to user equipment (10), the forwarded data packets comprising an indication of a sequence identifier associated with each forwarded data packet and an indication of a most recent successfully received data packet sequence identifier. Arrangements recognise that one way to mitigate some of the negative effects associated with early data forwarding, for example, the increased use of network memory and the risk of duplicate transmissions, is by providing a mechanism supported by a source (20A) and target node (20B) to allow a target access node (20B) to perform efficient data discarding.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing a depth buffer pre-pass are disclosed. A rendering application uses a binning approach to render primitives of a virtual scene on a tile-by-tile basis, with each tile corresponding to a portion of the screen. The application causes a depth buffer pre-pass to be performed for the primitives of the tile before a pixel shader is invoked. During the depth buffer pre-pass, only the depth part of the virtual scene is rendered to determine which pixel samples are visible and which pixel samples are hidden. Then, the scene is redrawn, but the pixel samples that are hidden are not sent to the pixel shader. In cases where a relatively large percentage of primitives overlap, this technique increases the efficiency of the rendering application since pixel shading can be avoided for the pixel samples that are hidden.
