Abstract
- The use of an image detector to receive grating images and measure angle displacement via image processing is a relatively new technique, which yields higher resolution and better precision than the traditional moiré fringe method. To improve the robustness of image-type angle measurement, this paper proposes a robust sub-pixel subdivision algorithm based on the least square method. Firstly, by analyzing the characteristic of grating image, a new subdivision algorithm is established based on the least square method. Secondly, the simulations of robustness are completed to prove the performance in theoretically. Lastly, the proposed algorithm is used in a typical image-type angle sensor to test the performance in real case. By test, the proposed method is shown to be more accurate and with better robust than the traditional algorithm (centroid algorithm). In a typical image-type angle sensor, it successfully achieves a resolution of 0.62″ (21-bit), 2 13 -fold subdivision resolution, and precision of 12.85″. The results presented here may provide a theoretical and technological foundation for further research on small-size, high-resolution photographic rotary encoders. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
