1 results about "Colatitude" patented technology

In a spherical coordinate system, a colatitude is the complementary angle of a given latitude, i.e. the difference between 90° and the latitude. Southern latitudes are given a negative value and are thus denoted with a minus sign.

Sensor for detecting a position of a mechanical component within a polar spherical coordinate reference system

PendingUS20260146839A1Speed measurement using accelerationAcceleration measurement using interia forcesProcessing elementColatitude
A sensor for detecting a position of a mechanical component within a polar spherical coordinate reference system, comprising, accommodated inside a sensor body of the sensor: a linear position sensor configured to detect a first linear coordinate of a position of a free end of a slider in the polar spherical coordinate reference system; an acceleration sensor; an angular speed sensor; a data processing unit configured to: determine a second colatitude coordinate and a third longitude coordinate of said position based on acceleration values and angular speed values detectable by said sensors; store in a memory unit a plurality of sets of three detected polar spherical coordinates representative of a path travelled by the free end of the slider in said reference system.
