Abstract: A method for automated gear contact pattern verification includes applying a colored powder to at least one gear to be meshed to form contacts on at least one gear tooth of the at least one gear, and using the smartphone, capturing images of the at least one gear tooth. A matching algorithm run on the smartphone may include identifying bounding points of a yellow portion of the at least one gear tooth, the bounding points including a midpoint of the yellow portion; identifying a gear mesh area between the bounding points and a midpoint of the gear mesh area; and determining a deviation in the midpoints of the yellow portion and gear mesh area, wherein the deviation may between approximately 25% and 80%. The test results are displayed on the smartphone, the test results including at least an indication of pass or fail.

Abstract: Systems and methods for conducting a sign-up process according to configuration data are presented. As indicated, the sign-up process is driven by configuration data, typically though not exclusively contained in an accessible configuration file, to conduct a sign-up process. According to the configuration data, the sign-up process utilizing the base set of executable code may conduct a sign-up process that includes presentation of data according to thematic elements, control the ordering of data aggregation and presentation, provide conditional branching among configuration items/instructions based on a variety of factors including user-provided input, validation of sign-up information including third-party validation of sign-up information, nesting sign-up processes, access to remotely located information, and external execution of functionality from or by external third-party services.
