Tony Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 First in the UK we can now position the un-sprung and sprung chassis in real time Immediate benefits is for the adjustable coil-over suspension audit but more beneficial is the ability to locate the sprung chassis in X,Y,Z. This information gathering is vital for collision analysis and for advanced areas like corner-weighting where a "live" image with weight data, complemented with un-sprung Geometric data completes our image or the owners intention for the chassis in all formats. The ability to simulate dynamic situations on a static chassis (Kinematics) vastly expands our view opening many previously closed doors.... Happy days all round methinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted May 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 They are targets that mount the sprung area of the car, alongside the targets mounted on the un-sprung area. Allowing us to audit the position of the sprung chassis... Here is an example of the body trim height Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
