  • Patent number: 10010919
    Abstract: A method for of aligning a vehicle includes the steps of: supporting a first portion (19A, 19B) of the vehicle, deforming the vehicle by applying a force to a second portion (5) of the vehicle, positioning at least one motion sensing measuring unit (9A, 9B) including at least one accelerometer on the supported first portion (19A, 19B) of the vehicle before the deforming step, and tracking any movements of the supported first portion (19A, 19B) of the vehicle during the deformation by means of the motion sensing measuring unit (9A, 9B). An arrangement for aligning a vehicle is also provided.

  • Patent number: 8931325
    Abstract: A measuring device 1 for measuring structures is provided, wherein the measuring device including two inertial measuring units 3, 4 arranged at a distance from each other. The measuring device can be provided with means for engaging the constructions that are measured. Also, an arrangement including a measuring device and a base station 21 providing a reference point for the measuring device is provided. Moreover, a kit including the measuring device and adaptors are provided, wherein the adaptors can provide an interface between the measuring device and a measured construction. A method for measuring a stationary construction is also provided, using a measuring device, preferably a measuring kit.
