Computer aided measuring system (CAMS) temperature reporters

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, storing instructions that, when executed by a processor of a controller, cause the processor to control the temperature of a large scale structure for manufacturing operations by performing the operations of:

• receiving, at the controller, a temperature reading from a plurality of sensors coupled to the large scale structure, the plurality of sensors including at least a first temperature sensor located within a first region and a second temperature sensor located within a second region, the controller in wireless communication with first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor and comprising logic for controlling the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor;
• determining, by the controller, a temperature variance between temperatures measured by at least the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor of the plurality of sensors;
• operating, by the controller, a plurality of temperature regulation devices, such that the temperatures measured by at least the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor of the plurality of sensors is maintained within a predefined range of each other, the controller operatively connected with each of the temperature regulation devices of the plurality of temperature regulation devices and comprising logic for controlling each of the temperature regulation devices of the plurality of temperature regulation devices;
• initiating, by the controller, operation of a Computer Aided Measuring System if the temperature variance between the temperatures measured by at least the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor of the plurality of sensors is within the predefined range;
• and
• ceasing, by the controller, operation of the Computer Aided Measuring System if the temperature difference between the temperatures measured by any of the plurality of sensors exceeds the predefined range.
