The Manipulator of the Passive Optoelectronic Rangefinder as a Controlled System of Servomechanisms

  • Conference paper
Mechatronics 2013

Abstract

Passive Optoelectronic Rangefinder (POERF) is a measurement device as well as a mechatronic system. Design of the POERF manipulator, as a controlled system, creates potential which is used by servomechanisms of elevation and traverse. Thus creates presumptions for high quality target tracking by means of POERF cameras. Traditional design of the manipulator is ineffective. New solution was adopted with POERF model 2012, which has been patented. The aim of this article is to clarify reasons for this design and to explain the principle of the patented structure.
