    摘要: Systems and methods for determining azimuth of a wellbore while drilling. A method of drilling a wellbore that includes rotating a drill bit to extend the wellbore into a subterranean formation. The method may further include measuring magnetic toolface with a first magnetometer while rotating the drill bit. The method may further include obtaining a cross-axial magnetic field measurement. The method may further include determining azimuth at a point in the wellbore using at least the magnetic toolface and the cross-axial magnetic field measurement. The method may further include using the azimuth as feedback in the drilling the wellbore.

    摘要: In this azimuth angle sensor, original magnetic detection data is sequentially acquired as data points in a triaxial coordinate system by detecting magnetism on three axes. An offset derivation device provided to the azimuth angle sensor derives offset values for correcting the original magnetic detection data and generating corrected magnetic detection data. The offset derivation device uses a plurality of data points in the original magnetic detection data or in the corrected magnetic detection data to derive provisional offset values, then derives the magnitude of magnetism on such an occasion on the basis of the original magnetic detection data and the provisional offset values. When the magnitude of magnetism thus derived is within a predetermined correction success range, the offset values are updated using the provisional offset values. When the magnitude of magnetism thus derived is not within the predetermined correction success range, the offset values are not updated.

    摘要: Provided are systems and methods for path-based navigation of tubular networks. In one aspect, the method includes receiving location data from at least one of a set of location sensors and a set of robot command inputs, the location data being indicative of a location of an instrument configured to be driven through a luminal network. The method also includes determining a first estimate of the location of the instrument at a first time based on the location data, determining a second estimate of the location of the instrument at the first time based on the path, and determining the location of the instrument at the first time based on the first estimate and the second estimate.

    摘要: A foldable mobile terminal apparatus and control method are provided. The apparatus includes a first section, a second section coupled to the first section and movable between a folded state and an unfolded state including a plurality of partially folded states, a flexible display coupled to the first and second sections, a first sensor, and at least one processor to, while the mobile terminal apparatus is partially folded, identify one of the partially folded states of the mobile terminal apparatus, and control the display to display information corresponding to a compass direction based on magnetic related information obtained by the first sensor and according to the identified partially folded states. The electronic device can prevent distortion of the first sensor caused by the display by calibrating the geomagnetic value of the sensor based on an angle between a first surface of a first section and a third surface of the second section.
