  • Virtual rigid framework for sensor subsystem
    Patent number: 10248191
    Abstract: An apparatus for dynamically determining a displacement of a target sensor in an electronic system is disclosed. The apparatus can comprise a non-line-of-sight sensor rigidly mounted on or proximate to the target sensor and configured to measure a parameter that varies with the displacement of the target sensor. The apparatus further can comprise at least one processor coupled to the non-line-of-sight sensor and configured to compute the displacement of the target sensor based on the parameter, and to compute an adjustment value based on the computed displacement.
    Type: Grant
