In a sensor fusion algorithm, the output is always zero despite valid sensor inputs. What is a probable cause?
AThe sensors are disconnected
BThe weights assigned to sensors are zero
CThe sensors are too far apart
DThe output display is off
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand zero output despite valid inputs

    If inputs are valid but output is zero, calculation likely multiplies inputs by zero weights.
  2. Step 2: Identify cause in algorithm

    Weights of zero cause the weighted sum to be zero regardless of sensor values.
  3. Final Answer:

    The weights assigned to sensors are zero -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Zero output cause = Zero weights [OK]
Quick Trick: Check if weights are set to zero accidentally [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Assuming hardware failure
  • Ignoring weight values
  • Blaming sensor distance
