Abstract: A method and apparatus for checking compliance of a design for a product with design rules. An executable rule module comprising the design rules is received. The design rules comprise design checking rules that specify conditions. Design data representing the design is received. The executable rule module is run using the design data to determine compliance of the design with the design rules by determining whether the design satisfies the conditions. A compliance report to indicate the compliance of the design with the design rules is generated. The design data may be used to manufacture the product in response to a determination that the design complies with the design rules.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a directional scanner configured to receive signals from at least three RFID tags at a plurality of orientations of the directional scanner. The apparatus includes a pose estimator configured to estimate a pose of a device that includes or is coupled to the directional scanner based on orientation data indicating orientations of the directional scanner associated with determined peak signal strengths associated with the at least three RFID tags.

Abstract: A method for electronically pairing a plurality of control units with a plurality of objects in an aircraft is provided. The method includes identifying a selected control unit from the plurality of control units that will control a selected object from the plurality of objects, placing a hand-held scanner in close proximity to a first machine-readable tag on the selected control unit to acquire a first unique ID for only the selected control unit, placing the hand-held scanner in close proximity to a second machine-readable tag on the selected object to acquire a second unique ID for only the selected object, and associating the first unique ID with the second unique ID to pair the selected control unit with the selected object.

Abstract: Methods and devices that determine a position on the ground of a laser that emits a laser beam that strikes an aircraft. The process includes determining a strike position from a camera that is located on the aircraft. A relative direction vector of the laser beam is computed with respect to the camera. The relative direction vector is converted into a global coordinate direction vector. The position on the ground of the laser is determined based on a point where the global coordinate direction vector intersects with the ground representation.

Abstract: A system is provided that includes a scanner movable relative to seat units and controllable devices each having RFID tags, the scanner configured to obtain a continuum of received signals, a distance sensor configured to determine a relative position of the scanner, a filter configured to disregard outliers and smooth the continuum into respective sets of received signal data, wherein each set of received signal data includes data points having a unique ID and a received signal strength, and wherein a relative time and a relative position are determined for each data point, and a processor configured to determine a relative location of each RFID tag, based on the relative position associated with maximum received signal strength within the set of received signal data, and generate a data file including pairings of seat units and associated controllable devices based on similar relative positions of RFID tags.
