During movement of the steady rest into the supporting position and/or while the supporting position of the steady rest is being changed, a collision between the open clamping elements of the steady rest and the workpiece is prevented by a program-controlled rotation of a rotary part of the steady rest. | 10-17-2013 |

20130002698 | VIRTUAL LENS-RENDERING FOR AUGMENTED REALITY LENS - Techniques for displaying content using an augmented reality device are described. Embodiments provide a visual scene for display, the visual scene captured using one or more camera devices of the augmented reality device. Embodiments adjust physical display geometry characteristics of the visual scene to correct for optimal projection. Additionally, illumination characteristics of the visual scene are modified based on environmental illumination data to improve realism of the visual scene when it is displayed. Embodiments further adjust display characteristics of the visual scene to improve tone mapping output. The adjusted visual scene is then output for display on the augmented reality device. | 01-03-2013 |

20160069928 | Acceleration Sensor and Method for Producing an Acceleration Sensor - The invention relates to an acceleration sensor, comprising a substrate having a substrate surface and a sample mass that is movable relative to the substrate in a first direction (x) parallel to the substrate surface. The sample mass has a comb-like electrode that is movable together with the sample mass and has a plurality of teeth, which extend in the first direction (x). The acceleration sensor further comprises a counter-electrode fixedly connected to the substrate, which counter-electrode has a fixed comb-like electrode and wherein said fixed comb-like electrode has a plurality of teeth which extend in a direction opposite to the first direction (x). The teeth of the movable comb-like electrode engage with the teeth of the fixed comb-like electrode. The acceleration sensor further comprises a shielding electrode fixedly connected to the substrate and which is suitable for increasing a pneumatic damping of the sample mass during a deflection movement of the sample mass. | 03-10-2016 |
