  • Publication number: 20230332925
    Abstract: According to one aspect, a method includes obtaining an assembly, the assembly including at least a first assembly sensor and a second assembly sensor of a plurality of assembly sensors, and calibrating the first assembly sensor and the second assembly sensor. The method also includes calibrating the first assembly sensor and the second assembly sensor together, wherein calibrating the first assembly sensor and second assembly sensor together includes placing the assembly in at least a first pose relative to a plurality of calibration targets. The assembly is coupled on a vehicle, and the plurality of assembly sensors are calibrated after coupling the assembly on the vehicle. Calibrating the plurality of assembly sensors after installing the assembly on the vehicle includes causing the vehicle to move relative to the plurality of calibration targets and using the plurality of assembly sensors to make measurements using the plurality of calibration targets.

  • Patent number: 6175834
    Abstract: A Consistency Checker provides an improved method of analyzing a Japanese text document to identify inconsistently spelled words. The Consistency Checker utilizes a Reading Pair Database (RPD) and a Compressed Lexicon Database (CLD) to determine the reading units within a word, to calculate a Reading Pair Identification Number (RID) for each reading unit, to calculate a Sense Identification Number (SID) for each word, and to calculate a Spelling Variant Identification Number (SVID) for each word. Spelling variants are generated by combining variations of individual RIDs in the RID array. A Registry is updated to maintain statistics on all of the words within the document. An error field within the Registry indicates that the document contains more than one spelling variant of a particular word. The client program can access the Registry to alert a user to inconsistencies discovered in the document.
