  • Publication number: 20230296375
    Abstract: A measurement panel (8) for the optical measurement or calibration of a vehicle component, in particular a wheel system or driver assistance system, comprises at least one optical feature (30, 32) and at least one optically detectable information carrier (34) of measurement panel information relating to the measurement panel (8) itself. The at least one optical feature (30, 32) is formed on or attached to a front side of the measurement panel (8), and the at least one optically detectable information carrier (34) is formed on or attached to a rear side of the measurement panel (8).

  • Patent number: 10001429
    Abstract: A device for checking the wheel suspension of a vehicle, in particular, of a motor vehicle, includes: a device for determining the wheel normals and/or the center of rotation of a wheel of the vehicle; a device for determining the movement trajectory of the wheel normals and/or of the center of rotation of the wheel during a movement of the vehicle; and a comparison and evaluation device, which is configured to compare the determined movement trajectory of the wheel normals and/or of the center of rotation of the wheel to a predefined movement trajectory, and to output a defect message when the deviation of the determined movement trajectory from the predefined movement trajectory exceeds a predefined limiting value.

  • Patent number: 9599538
    Abstract: A method for checking the correct positioning of a vehicle on a measuring station for vehicle measurement includes: a) taking images of at least two tires of the vehicle; b) identifying features, in the images taken, which describe at least one area of the respectively recorded tire; c) fitting a mathematical model to the identified features; d) determining the extent of the flattening of each tire from the fitted mathematical model; e) comparing the flattening of the at least two tires.
