US12540794 - Automated vision-based orientation measurement system and method of use

A calibration assembly for a guided vehicle. The calibration assembly includes an orientation marker that operably engages with a first guidance apparatus of the guided vehicle. The calibration assembly also includes an imaging assembly that operably engages with and is in electrical communication with a second guidance apparatus of the guided vehicle. When the imaging assembly captures the orientation marker at a translated position for at least one cycle, the imaging assembly calibrates a rotational displacement between a first guidance direction of the first guidance apparatus and a second guidance direction of the second guidance apparatus based on an angular displacement of the orientation marker measured between a zeroed position denoting the first guidance direction and the translated position.
