20090024619 | Processing video files using metadata and time stamp - A method for processing video data involves receiving data from a series of images and analyzing the data to identify geometric forms. The forms are stored as metadata of a first data level and are linked by time stamps to the images in which the forms were identified.

Metadata and delta metadata are analyzed, and objects are extracted from the geometric forms. The objects are stored as time-stamped metadata and delta metadata of a second data level. The process is repeated for higher data levels. A user inputs a database query to identify from among the stored input images that particular image sequence in which the extracted object is recorded. Queries started at higher data levels are quicker but less accurate. | 01-22-2009 |

20110251734 | METHOD FOR THE ADAPTION OF A DRIVING BEHAVIOR OF A VEHICLE WITH A CHANGE OF DRIVER - A method is provided for the adaption of a driving behavior of a vehicle with a change of driver. For this, driver-specific driving parameters, which characterize a driving style of a driver, of several vehicle drivers are stored as virtual driver profiles in the vehicle or in a drivers' control center. In addition, various methods are stored driver-specifically in the vehicle or in a drivers' control center, which respectively modify a reaction of the vehicle to driving parameters of a driver to the effect that a manner of driving, taking into account the limits of the vehicle, is ensured in traffic. During the driving of the vehicle, a first of the methods is then used and a comparison of stored virtual driver profiles with actually detected driver-specific driving parameters is carried out. If on comparing the actually detected driver-specific driving parameters a change of driver is clearly recognized and an allocation to one of the stored virtual driver profiles was not able to take place, a change-over is made to a next one of the methods until the driver is recognized or, if a recognition is not possible by means of the stored data, a further safety method is created for a new virtual driver. | 10-13-2011 |
