Title: Determination of wheel sensor position using shock sensors and a wireless solution
Inventor: STEWART WILLIAM DAVID
IPC: B60C23/00
Filed: 2005-01-19
Abstract: A remote tire monitor system (102) includes a control unit (112) and a plurality of tire monitors (124, 126, 128, 130) mountable on respective wheels (104, 106, 108, 110) of a vehicle (100) to transmit radio signals to the control unit. The tire monitors each include a pair of motion sensors such as shock sensors (210, 212) and a control circuit (202) configured to determine position information for the respective tire monitor based on first and second shock sensor signals from the pair of shock sensors. The shock sensors produce an output voltage proportional to a change in applied force. Therefore, the offset created by centrifugal force in previously used accelerometers is absent, simplifying design of the tire monitors.

Abstract: A method and a system for measuring the relief of an object are described herein. The system includes a grid projecting for projecting a grid, an image acquisition apparatus that includes a camera, and a computer. Providing a reference object having common elements with the object to measure, the method includes the steps of a) positioning the grid at three different known positions relative to the camera and the common elements; b) for each position of the grid, projecting the grid unto the reference object and, with the camera, taking an image of the reference object to yield three images having values for each pixel of the camera and c) computing the reference object phase for each pixel using the three reference object intensity values for the corresponding pixel.  Steps a), b) and c) are repeated by replacing the reference object by the object to be measured. The difference of height between the object to be measured and the reference object for each pixel are then computed by subtracting the reference object phase and the object phase for the corresponding pixel.
