US 10,895,455 B2 · Methods and ranging apparatus for positioning target object in target space

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of positioning a target object in a target space by means of a ranging apparatus, the method comprises: acquiring a first size parameter of the target space on a first dimension; acquiring a second size parameter of the target object on the first dimension; and determining a first layout indication according to the first size parameter, the second size parameter and a first predetermined rule, the first layout indication containing information regarding a first target position of the target object on the first dimension of the target space. By means of the method in accordance with the invention, a desired positioning of the target object in the target space by means of a ranging apparatus may be implemented, such as being placed at the center or being placed at a one-third aliquot point, thus implementing the object placement and layout in the object space.

A method of positioning a target object in a target space by means of a ranging apparatus, the method comprising:

acquiring, by the ranging apparatus, a first size parameter of the target space on a first dimension;
acquiring, by the ranging apparatus, a second size parameter of the target object on the first dimension;
determining a first layout indication according to the first size parameter, the second size parameter and a first predetermined rule, the first layout indication containing information regarding a first target position of the target object on the first dimension of the target space;
determining, by the ranging apparatus, whether the target object is at the first target position in the target space;
and
outputting, by the ranging apparatus, a prompt signal according to the first layout indication when the ranging apparatus determines that the target object is at the first target position in the target space.
