  • Publication number: 20220398352
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a real component, enabling at least one acceptance criterion to be displayed by targeting a point on the real component with a pointer of an augmented reality device. The method includes the steps of determining a transfer matrix for converting coordinates of a real point located in a second reference frame into coordinates of a virtual point located in a first reference frame and corresponding to the real point, determining the coordinates in the first reference frame of a virtual point associated with the pointer, using the transfer matrix, determining whether the virtual point associated with the pointer belongs to a criterion area of the virtual component, and, if so, displaying at least one acceptance criterion of the criterion area to which the virtual point associated with the pointer belongs, and addressing the non-conformance according to the acceptance criterion, to make the real component acceptable.

  • Publication number: 20220398815
    Abstract: A method for locating at least one point of a real part on a virtual part defined in a first coordinate system by targeting the point of the real part with a pointer of an augmented-reality device. The method includes determining a transfer matrix for converting between a coordinate system in which the pointer moves and a coordinate system in which the virtual part corresponding to the real part is defined, and determining the coordinates in the first coordinate system of the point be located by converting, by virtue of the transfer matrix, the coordinates in the second coordinate system of the pointer pointed at the point to be located.

  • Patent number: 8128375
    Abstract: The monocrystalline turbomachine blade according to the invention that is cast and directionally solidified, is disclosed. The blade includes an airfoil with a leading edge, a pressure face, a suction face, a trailing edge, a skeleton and having a longitudinal axis, the faces and having a neck line, respectively a pressure face neck and a suction face neck relative to the adjacent blade in the turbomachine rotor of which it forms an element; an endpiece of the airfoil, such as a heel or a platform, having an airfoil end face, on the stream side, forming an angle with the axis ZZ; and a connection zone between the airfoil and the airfoil end face. The connection zone forms a fattening of the airfoil. The connection zone extends about the leading edge between a point P1 situated on the suction face of the airfoil upstream of the suction face neck and a point P3 situated on the pressure face of the airfoil upstream of the pressure face neck.

  • Patent number: 4814769
    Abstract: For carrying out an interrogation a position modulated laser light wave is used. A key word is displayed in an interrogator and coded in accordance with a cyclic code, for example Golay's code. This coded key word is used for modulating the laser wave. In the responder the same key word is displayed and coded in the same way. After reception and demodulation each message is compared in a correlation circuit with the local reference word. The correlation method used allows parasite pulses to be taken into account and the word received to be validated with a given security threshold.
