"The Machine Vision market is most notably represented by the automotive industry. As Autonomous Driver Assisted Systems (ADAS) and fully autonomous vehicles become more prevalent the requirements for realtime video analytics become more critical. BrainChip’s Spiking Neural Network represents a best-in-class solution for this demanding application. The Company is currently engaged with IniLabs in Switzerland, a developer of DVS cameras that are applicable in autonomous vehicle applications. The Company is also engaged in discussions with Volkswagen."

Control Device for Redundant Execution of an Operating Function and Motor Vehicle

Abstract
The invention present disclosure relates to a control device for redundant execution of an operating function, wherein the control device comprises at least a first processor unit and a second processor unit and a plurality of peripheral units and a first switching unit is provided for the first processor unit and a second switching unit is provided for the second processor unit, and wherein the control device is designed in a first operating mode to execute the operating function by means of the first processor unit and in the meantime to execute a predetermined auxiliary function by means of the second processor unit. According to the invention, the control device is designed, in a second operating mode to execute the operating function by means of the second processor unit, and in so doing to continue to execute the auxiliary function (24) in a predefined reduced scope by means of the second processor unit, wherein a coupling device is provided, which is designed to connect the second processor unit to the first switching unit.

Method for the driverless operation of a vehicle system designed for the fully automatic control of a motor vehicle, and motor vehicle

Abstract
This disclosure relates to a method for the driverless operation of a vehicle system of a motor vehicle designed for fully automatic control of the motor vehicle. In accordance with at least one sequential criterion, which evaluates a status of the driver, comprising location information describing the current position of the driver and/or comprising resource information describing an amount of a resource that is present or required for the driver, of which resource a supply is present in the motor vehicle, operating information describing the taking of the motor vehicle to a sequential position having a shorter, in particular minimum possible distance from the current position of the driver or from a predicted destination of the driver, is automatically determined and applied. A motor vehicle with an onboard vehicle system and a control device, for execution of the method, are also disclosed.

Object tracking using contour filters and scalers

Abstract
A system, components, and methodologies are provided for image data processing and subsequent use to detect and/or identify objects and object movement in such image data to enable assistance, automation, control and/or documentation regarding transportation vehicle movement. An affine contour filter provides the ability to extract precise sub-pixel roots of contours that represent boundaries of blobs in an image that undergoes small affine changes such as translation, rotation and scale. Thereby lateral contour tracking may be performed wherein movement of an object may be tracked within the field of view of a camera by aligning the contours associated with the object in space-time. As a result, the size and shape of the object to be tracked need not be specified ahead of time.
