Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for calibrating and aligning automotive sensors, such as advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) sensors. Embodiments include a system having an image sensor mounted on a fixture in a known pose relative to the fixture. The image sensor is for viewing a target disposed on a vehicle and having a known pose relative to the vehicle, and for capturing image data of the target. A data processor is provided for performing the steps of calculating, using the image data, a pose of the target; calculating a pose of the image sensor relative to the vehicle using the calculated pose of the target; and generating instructions for positioning the fixture at a predetermined pose relative to the vehicle using the calculated pose of the image sensor relative to the vehicle.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a flexible pouch. In an embodiment, the flexible pouch includes a first layer structure and a second layer structure. Each layer structure includes (i) an inner liner and (ii) an outer sheath. The first layer structure is superimposed on the second layer structure such that the inner liners oppose each other. The first layer structure superimposed upon the second layer structure defines a common peripheral edge. Each inner liner is composed of a flexible film of a polymeric material. Each outer sheath is composed of a post-consumer recycle (PCR) polymer material. The PCR polymer material has a GI200 value greater than 50. The flexible pouch includes a peripheral seal. The peripheral seal extends along at least a portion of the common peripheral edge. The peripheral seal seals the first layer structure to the second layer structure.

Abstract: An adjustable rack focus stop on a focusing lens incorporates an arm mounted to the focusing lens housing and extending over the focus ring. A stop in the form of an adjustable band is positioned on the focus ring and includes a catch which is capable of engaging the arm. Two objects at different distances from the lens may be focused on through the focusing of the lens on the second object, adjustment of the stop so that it contacts the arm and then readjusting the focus to the first object. The two objects may be filmed in sequence without turning off the camera by adjusting the focus to engage the catch with the arm when refocusing to the second object.
