Universal and automated monte carlo method code for uncertainty propagation in metrology databases
First Claim
1. An apparatus for transforming target points for integrating a component into an assembly comprising:
- a metrology system for measuring a set of component target points and a set of assembly target points; and
a computer operable to;
identify target points common to the set of component target points and the set of assembly target points;
perform a specified number of Monte Carlo transformations of selected ones of the common target points to yield a set of transformed target points and an associated uncertainty value for each transformed target point; and
using certain ones of the transformed target points for integrating the component into the assembly based on the associated uncertainty value for each of the transformed target points.

Abstract
A method of providing transformed target points for integrating a component into an assembly includes collecting a set of component target points, collecting a set of assembly target points, identifying target points common to the set of component target points and the set of assembly target points; performing a specified number of Monte Carlo transformations of selected ones of the common target points to yield a set of transformed target points and vectors and an associated uncertainty value for each transformed target point and vector, and using certain ones of the transformed target points for integrating the component into the assembly based on the associated uncertainty value for each of the transformed target points.
