Claim 11:
12. The method of claim 1, wherein the calculating the prediction offset value includes:
calculating a first horizontal difference between the first location of the first optical target in the top-on position and the third location of the first optical target in the top-off position at a first side of the lower casing;
calculating a second horizontal difference between the first location of the first optical target in the top-on position and the third location of the first optical target in the top-off position at a second side of the lower casing; and
summing the first horizontal difference and the second horizontal difference to attain a horizontal adjustment, and
wherein the adjusting includes adjusting the component support position based on the horizontal adjustment and the known spatial relation of the third reference point to the component support position of the component in the lower casing.
