Abstract: A system comprises a controller for a vehicle. The controller comprises a processor and a memory. The controller is configured to make readings of an infrared sensor positioned to sense objects and motion in a rear passenger foot well. The controller determines if there is an object present in the foot well using the readings. The controller then determines if there is motion in the foot well using the readings. The controller then activates a knee bolster when motion is determined, and deactivates a knee bolster when motion is not determined.

The invention aims to find a novel possibility for suppressing interference ripples occurring in optical sensors when adding substrates with optically functional coatings which permits a simple production without complicated adaptation layers. The sensor passivation is composed of a combination of thin SiO2 layer in the range of 5 to 10 nm and an antireflection-matched Si3N4 layer and a substrate which carries at least one optical filter is arranged over the sensor passivation and connected to the sensor by means of an adhesive and forms an intermediate space between sensor surface and optical filter which is filled with an optical medium having a low refractive index (n2) and a height variation (Δh) over the associated sensor surface.

Abstract: A detector for detecting single photons of infrared radiation. In one embodiment a waveguide configured to transmit infrared radiation is arranged to be adjacent a graphene sheet and configured so that evanescent waves from the waveguide overlap the graphene sheet. An infrared photon absorbed by the graphene sheet from the evanescent waves heats the graphene sheet. The graphene sheet is coupled to the weak link of a Josephson junction, and a constant bias current is driven through the Josephson junction, so that an increase in the temperature of the graphene sheet results in a decrease in the critical current of the Josephson junction and a voltage pulse in the voltage across the Josephson junction. The voltage pulse is detected by the pulse detector.

Abstract: A method for inspecting a light source module for defects includes preparing a board on which a light emitting device and a lens covering the light emitting device are installed. A current is applied to the light emitting device to turn on the light emitting device. The lens is imaged with the light emitting device turned on. A central symmetry denoting a symmetry of light emission distribution from the center of the lens is calculated based on the obtained image, and the calculated central symmetry is compared with a reference value to determine whether unsymmetrical light emission distribution has occurred. Various other methods and apparatuses for inspecting light source modules are additionally provided.

Abstract: An optical sensing system for detecting objects passing through a volume of interest, wherein the sensing system has an emitter and a detector. The detector detects motion of object shadows generated as the object passes through the volume of interest between the emitter and detector. Motion detection algorithms, using computed motion vectors of the detected object, logically determine whether an object has traveled completely through the detection space, and can be used to discriminate a specific outcomes and/or impediments.
