Abstract:
Apparatuses, computer programs and methods are provided. A first method comprises: responding to user input, at a wearable user input device, by causing transmission of a radio frequency signal comprises a request from a pedestrian wearer of the wearable user input device. The request may be a request to cross a road. A second method comprises: responding to the user input, provided by the pedestrian wearer of the wearable user input device, by causing motion of a vehicle to change. The motion of the vehicle may be changed in order to enable the pedestrian to cross the road.

Abstract:
An apparatus 43, method and computer program wherein the apparatus 43 obtains information from a solar charging vehicle 31, the information comprising a current location of the vehicle 31 and information relating to distribution of solar power in a predetermined area, such as levels of sunshine. The apparatus 43 uses the obtained information to determine a photovoltaic power charging strategy and enables the vehicle 31 to access the charging strategy. The vehicle 31 may be controlled to move autonomously in order to optimize solar power charging, for example by positioning its solar panel to receive sunlight more efficiently. Other information used to determine the strategy may include the state of charge of the vehicle 31 battery, the power requirements of the vehicle 31, and the estimated future power usage of the vehicle 31. The system may communicate via a server 21 to a plurality of vehicles 31. The information related to available solar power may include weather conditions, building heights, shadow positions and ambient light levels. The charging strategy may include the times when a vehicle 31 should move to or leave a charging station.
Abstract:
Un método que comprende: obtener información de un vehículo (31) alimentado por energía solar, en el que la información comprende al menos una ubicación actual del vehículo (31) alimentado por energía solar; obtener información relacionada con la distribución de energía solar en un área predeterminada; utilizar la información obtenida para determinar una estrategia (27) de carga de energía solar; y permitir que el vehículo (31) alimentado por energía solar acceda a la estrategia (27) de carga de energía solar, en donde la estrategia (27) de carga comprende un programa de cuándo un vehículo (31) alimentado por energía solar debe moverse a un lugar de carga, caracterizado porque los requisitos de energía del vehículo (31) alimentado por energía solar para moverse hacia y desde la ubicación de carga se tienen en cuenta para determinar la estrategia (27) de carga de energía solar, y en donde la estrategia (27) de carga de energía solar permite mover en forma autónoma el vehículo (31) alimentado por energía solar.
Abstract:
A method comprising receiving a visual media item, determining an identity of at least one intended viewer of the visual media item, identifying a visual representation of an object that is comprised by the visual media item, determining a relevance of the object based, at least in part, on the identity, and generating a modified visual media item such that the modified visual media item differs from the visual media item, at least, by visual emphasis of the visual representation of the object is disclosed.
Abstract:
The apparatus performs the steps of identifying user devices 73; providing information which is indicative of an intended path of a vehicle to the user device 77; then the apparatus determines whether or not it has received a notification from the user device acknowledging that the user has acknowledged the information indicative of the intended path of the vehicle 89; and if the apparatus has not received the notification, enabling modification of the intended path of the vehicle 93, which can include breaking or selecting a new path. The user device receives information 79 indicative of the intended path of the vehicle; then provides this information to the user 81; then determines whether or not the user has acknowledged the information 83; and if it is the user has acknowledged this information then the devices transmits a notification of the user acknowledgement 85. A method and computer program are also disclosed for both the apparatus and user device. This invention helps to raise the awareness of users of the vehicles, particularly autonomous vehicles, around the user. It also acts somewhat similarly to a dead man switch but with the emphasis on pedestrians not the driver of a vehicle.
Abstract:
An apparatus (1), method and computer program wherein the apparatus (1) comprises: processing circuitry (5); and memory circuitry (7) including computer program code (11); the memory circuitry (7) and the computer program code (11) configured to, with the processing circuitry (7), cause the apparatus (1) at least to perform: obtaining information from a solar powered vehicle (31) wherein the information comprises at least a current location of the solar powered vehicle (31); obtaining information (25) relating to distribution of solar power in a predetermined area; using the obtained information to determine a solar power charging strategy (27); and enabling the solar powered vehicle (31) to access the solar power charging strategy (27).
Abstract:
The embodiments relate to a method and to technical equipment for implementing the method. The method includes receiving an image with location information from a client; requesting processed region data from a media server based on the location information, said processed region data including one or more images with the corresponding location information; applying a first process for determining a pose of a device for the received image by means of the processed region data; if the first process fails to result the pose of the device, applying a second process for determining a pose of a device for the received image by means of the processed region data; saving the image with the determined pose of the device to the media server; providing the image and the pose of the device to a client for client rendering.
