A displacement measurement system based on optical triangulation method

Abstract:

A new displacement measurement system is described in this paper according to the basic principles of traditional lasertriangulation method. The range of the traditional measuring method is enlarged by measuring in sections. Three independent CCDs, which are distributed uniformly along the optical axis, are used to achieve subsection measurement. The planemirror is regarded as a virtual detector. When imaging beam is reflected by the plane mirror, the beam is imaged on theCC D. The designed syst...
