  • Publication number: 20160151667
    Abstract: A movement-orbit sensing system is provided for collecting movement-orbits of sensing points of an object under detection, which comprises sensors, a host a comparison unit, and a determination unit. The sensors are used for outputting sensed signals and multi-dimensional coordinate value. The host comprises units for generating a multi-dimensional coordinate signal and sensed values, and a movement-obit architecture unit is used for architecting the movement-orbit of each sensing point according to the multi-dimensional coordinate signal and sensed values. The comparison unit is used for comparing the movement-orbit of the object under detection with a standard movement-orbit information, thereby obtaining an offset value. The determination unit is used for determining whether the offset value is greater than a preset value. If the offset value is greater than the preset value, the movement-orbit of at least one of the sensing points is determined to be erroneous.

  • Publication number: 20160154900
    Abstract: A 3D model component comparing system and method thereof are provided. The 3D model component comparing system includes a model-capturing unit, a processing unit, and a message-prompting unit. The model-capturing unit obtains a first model and a second model in a model design interface. The processing unit compares a plurality of components of the first model and a plurality of components of the second model to obtain a plurality of components which have different names, and analyzes them to determine whether the plurality of components which have different names have identical component data correspondingly or not. The message-prompting unit outputs a renaming prompting message if the plurality of components, which have different names, have identical component data correspondingly. Thus the design error rate is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20160147931
    Abstract: A programmable CAD system suited for preventing interference between components and a chassis, and a method thereof are provided. The method comprises the following steps of: automatically obtaining a protruding length of a pin tail of a component outwardly protruded from a circuit board, by a first arithmetic unit; obtaining a distance, between a chassis and a surface of the circuit board corresponding to a location where the component is disposed, from a component information unit, obtaining an interference value according to the protruding length and the distance, by a second arithmetic unit; and determining whether the interference value is greater than zero, by a determine unit. If the interference value is greater than zero, the component is determined to be interfering with the chassis; and if not, the component is determined not to be interfering with the chassis.

  • Publication number: 20130326461
    Abstract: A method for detecting interference in spatial structure is provided. The method includes the following steps. A circuit board is obtained, wherein the circuit board has set a first height limit, and parts of the coordinate areas have set a plurality of second height limits respectively. The second height limits are lower than the first height limit. A Keep-out area is established according to the second height limits of the coordinate areas and the first height limit. The corresponding height of each coordinate area in a substrate-boarded space is compared according to the keep-out area to simulate and determine whether the circuit board is interfered in the substrate-boarded space. Thus, users can immediately check whether interference or clashed in space occurs between the circuit board and the substrate-boarded space.
