  • Patent number: 10928227
    Abstract: A mounting system for mounting a sensor assembly to a pair of rotatable members coupled by an articulation joint includes a sensor mounting plate. The sensor mounting plate is coupled to a first rotatable member and supports at least one sensor element thereon such that the at least one sensor element is in alignment with an axis of the articulation joint. The mounting system also includes a target mounting plate that is disposed in a spaced-apart manner from the sensor mounting plate. The target mounting plate has a target mounting portion for supporting the target element thereon, and a support arm extending from the target mounting portion. Further, the mounting system also includes a post having a first end configured to couple with the second rotatable member and a second end that is configured to adjustably support the support arm of the target mounting plate via an adjustment block.

  • Publication number: 20160125358
    Abstract: A system and a related method for managing mappings between user handles and physical addresses are disclosed. In some embodiments, the system allows a user to provide a user handle and a physical address. The system maps user handles to physical addresses for users. Furthermore, the system offers standard digital templates for short items. A user can prepare digital items based on one of the templates and request delivery to a recipient identified by a user handle. In response, the system generates a physical item according to the filled-out template and mails the item to the recipient at the physical address according to the mapping. The system also allows a user to request delivery of a physical item to a recipient identified by a user handle and rely on a party involved in packaging or delivering the physical item to resolve the user handle into a physical address according to the mapping.
