Managing Positioning Sensors

There is need to analyze if a sensor can detect the panel surface at each fastening point (henceforth to represent drill or rivet). Based on this, switch on or off the sensor at that point. This is done through a batch analysis.

Before you begin: Have a scenario with sensors defined.
