A method for controlling a hybrid drive of a vehicle, the hybrid drive having an electric drive and a fuel drive. A database which has assignments between route information and first and second route criteria is provided. The route information represents routes which may be traveled by the vehicle. The first route criterion represents a preferred use of the electric drive on the particular assigned route, and the second route criterion represents a preferred use of the fuel drive on the particular assigned route. Current route information which represents a route traveled by the vehicle is received, and a current route criterion assigned to the current route information is provided from the database, and control information is also provided for using the electric drive if the current route criterion is the first route criterion or for using the fuel drive if the current route criterion is the second route criterion.

A method for destination selection in a navigation system in which each destination from a totality of all destinations is defined by destination parameters and a set of possible destinations from the totality of all destinations is limited step-wise due to the input of individual characters for one parameter. When inputting the characters, a switch may be made from one destination parameter to an input of a character for another parameter.

Method for selecting elements in a driver information system or in a navigation system or in a mobile terminal

A touch probe for a coordinate measuring apparatus is proposed which includes a touch probe chassis adapted to be attached to the coordinate measuring apparatus, a support for the sensing stylus which is mounted on the touch probe chassis so as to be deflectable from a rest position and on which a sensing stylus is mountable for contacting a workpiece , a deflection measuring system for detecting a deflection of the support for the sensing stylus with respect to the touch probe chassis and an inspection optics for inspecting a tip of the sensing stylus . The touch probe is characterized in that at least one of the components support for the sensing stylus and touch probe chassis comprises a transverse support which extends transversely to a direction of extension of the sensing stylus and which is transparent to light in at least a portion thereof and which is disposed in a beam path of the inspection optics
