Modeling Cable Harness Effects on Space Structures
Due to the high mass ratio of cables on lightweight spacecraft, the dynamic response of cabled structures must be understood and modeled for accurate spacecraft control. Models of cable behavior are reviewed and categorized into three major classes consisting of thin rod models, semi-continuous …

Evaluating Video-to-3D Foundation Models for Wire Harness Assembly Verification
Automotive wire harness assembly is a heavily manual process, and a critical part of this workflow is Quality Control (QC). Automating this visual verification is challenging: traditional 2D computer vision struggles with spatial occlusions, and lacks essential geometric depth, whereas 3D data can …
