    Abstract: A method and apparatus for enabling a vehicle wheel alignment measurement system to compensate one or more vehicle wheel alignment angles or vehicle body measurements acquired from a vehicle for changes associated with adjustments in the elevation of vertically movable runways of an automotive vehicle lift supporting the vehicle. An initial set of pose measurements are acquired with the movable runways at a stable first elevation. Following an elevation change to the movable runways, a second set of pose measurements are acquired with the movable runways at a second stable elevation. One or more compensation factors used to compensate vehicle wheel alignment angles or vehicle body measurements for changes in the automotive vehicle lift configuration are determined by a comparison of the initial and second sets of pose measurements.

    Abstract: A drive-through vehicle inspection system with a method for acquiring information from markings on tire sidewall surfaces of a moving vehicle. As the vehicle passes through the inspection system, sets of colored light sources, disposed at different relative orientations on opposite lateral sides of the vehicle, illuminate each passing wheel, enabling optical imaging systems associated with the opposite lateral sides of the inspection lane to acquire color images of the illuminated tire sidewall surfaces. Acquired color images are passed to a processing system and separated into individual red, green, and blue color channels for image processing. The processed output from each color channel is recombined by the processing system into a synthesized grayscale image highlighting and emphasizing markings present on the tire sidewall surfaces for evaluated by an OCR algorithm to retrieve tire identifying information.

    Abstract: A tire changer with a controller includes a with a mount assembly adapted for contacting a wheel assembly to mount the wheel to a rotating spindle. The tire changer controller is configured to regulate the operation of a motor, and which is operatively connected to the rotating spindle to rotate the wheel assembly. A sensor coupled to the controller provides a data representative of the rotational position of the wheel assembly about a rotational axis. The controller is further configured to engage a load roller with the wheel assembly to apply a radial force to a tire mounted on a rim of the wheel assembly during rotation of the wheel, and to regulate the operation of a tire handling means and mount assembly, enabling identification, optional marking, and adjustment of the tire angular mounting position relative to the wheel rim.
