News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors:“After automotive wiring harnesses are assembled, they are shipped to a vehicle assembly plant where theyare manually placed and routed th rough the body of the vehicle. The process of unraveling, routing, andfixing th e wiring harness to the vehicle structure is typically performed by human assemb ly operators in alabor intensive process that requires strategically designed w iring channels and specified routing paths tothe corresponding electrical conne ctors. These wiring channels and routing paths depend on the vehiclemodel and o ptional electronic content. The wiring harness routing process in vehicle assemb ly plants cancause ergonomic issues for the human assembly operators which may cause additional costs for redesigningthe wiring harness, adding more component s, and complicating the vehicle assembly process complexityto address the ergon omic issues. Often, additional components such as non-standard wiring channels require an expensive and complex design process to create new wiring channel desi gns.”
