Safety markers are used to monitor the security situation surrounding a construction site. A position data set indicates a current position of a safety marker. A reference image data set indicates an initial state of the security situation, and a control image data set indicates a current state of the security situation. The position data set, the reference image data set and the control image data set are transmitted to a central processing unit. A correction data set is determined by evaluating the reference image data set and the control image data set. The position data set is corrected using the correction data set to generate a corrected position data set. The current position of the safety marker as indicated by the corrected position data set is compared to a target position of the safety marker. An alarm signal is generated if the current position deviates from the target position.

A method for controlling a preparation function for an operation of a motor vehicle includes determining an expected time of use of the motor vehicle based on a previous journey of the motor vehicle. The motor vehicle includes a time switch configured to control the preparation function. The method also includes outputting the specified time of use and detecting a confirmation of the time of use. The method also includes setting the time switch to prepare the motor vehicle at the confirmed time of use.

A charging device for charging the electrochemical energy accumulator has a first circuit which is or can be coupled electrically to the electrochemical energy accumulator. A heating device for heating the electrochemical energy accumulator has a second circuit, separate from the first circuit, having an induction heating element which can be heated inductively by an external magnetic alternating field and which is or can be coupled thermally to the electrochemical energy accumulator.

The invention relates to a circuit for generating a true, circuit-specific and time-invariant random binary number, having: a matrix of K&#x2212;L delay elements that can be connected to each other by means of L&#x2212;1 single or double commutation circuits into chains of delay elements of length L, a single or double demultiplexer connected before the matrix, a single or double multiplexer connection after the matrix, and a run time or number comparator, wherein the setting of the commutation circuits, the demultiplexer, and the multiplexer can be prescribed by a control signal, wherein the circuit comprises a channel code encoder whereby code words of a channel code can be generated and a transcriber, whereby code words of the channel code can be transcribed into the control signal of the L&#x2212;1 single or double commutation circuits, and a method for generating a true, circuit-specific and time-invariant random number by means of a matrix of L&#x2212;K delay elements, L&#x2212;1 single or double commutation circuits, a single or double demultiplexer connected before the matrix, a single or double multiplexer connection after the matrix, and a run time or number comparator, comprising at least the steps a) generating a code word of a channel code, b) transcribing a code word of a channel code to a selection code, c) generating chains of L delay elements by setting a setting corresponding to the code word of the selection code for the L&#x2212;1 single or double commutation circuits, the single or double demultiplexer, and the single or double multiplexer, d) pairwise comparing of two variables determined by the delay times of two chains defined by the setting of the L&#x2212;1 commutation circuits corresponding to the code word of the channel code, by means of a number or delay comparator for generating a bit of the true, circuit-specific and time-invariant random number.
