A flexible display apparatus and an adjusting apparatus which is designed to move the flexible display apparatus from a stowing position into a usage position are included in a display device for a motor vehicle. The adjusting apparatus is designed to bend the flexible display apparatus from the stowing position into the usage position.

Display device for a motor vehicle, method for operating a display device, and motor vehicle having a display device

A display device for a hybrid vehicle having a first drive source and at least one second drive source for driving the hybrid vehicle according to a load requirement by the driver. The display device has at least one display component for displaying a value of a load requirement predetermined by the driver at a specific time and, when the hybrid vehicle is driven exclusively by the at least one second drive at said time, at least one additional display component is provided for visualizing a limit of a maximum load requirement retrievable by the driver at said time, wherein if said load requirement is exceeded, the first drive source is also or exclusively activated for driving the hybrid vehicle. At least one further display component can be activated, via which the visualization of at least one such mode of operation of the hybrid vehicle is possible.

Display device and method for a hybrid vehicle having such a display device

A pedestrian protection system for a vehicle, having at least one impact-detecting sensor and a deformable element that are arranged between a cross-member and a bumper cover of the vehicle, and a control unit that analyzes the signals of the at least one sensor. In order to reduce the amount of space required, the deformable element is designed as a deformable member that it has a cavity in which the at least one sensor is arranged and detects changes in an electromagnetic field in the cavity.

Pedestrian protection system for a vehicle

An amphibious vehicle having an open seating arrangement includes one driving engine for reciprocally or simultaneously powering an all-wheel-drive travel drive and a swim drive, constructed as jet drive, with the aid of at least two clutches which are independent of one another, the driving engine being arranged essentially in the center between the axles of the travel drive below the seating arrangement.

Amphibious vehicle

A method and an apparatus for release control of an occupant restraining device in a motor vehicle is provided with an arrangement for detecting actual data of vehicle motion and applying a release algorithm to the actual data detected, to generate release signals as required for the release of at least one restraining device.

Method and arrangement for controlling activation of restraining devices in a motor vehicle

A method and an arrangement are described for controlling activation of occupant restraining devices in a motor vehicle in which actual data relating to vehicle motion are detected and applied to an activation algorithm to generate activation signals as required for the activation of at least one of the restraining devices. In the disclosed method the following steps are performed: detecting actual data relating to vehicle motion; determining a target condition of vehicle motion corresponding to the desired operating behavior of the vehicle; comparing an actual condition of vehicle motion determined from at least some of the actual data detected with the corresponding target condition; parametering an activation algorithm employed to generate activation signals, taking account of differences between an actual condition and a target condition of vehicle motion; and applying the activation algorithm to at least some of the detected actual data for generation, as required, of situation-adapted activation signals for activation of at least one of the occupant restraining devices.
