This paper considers about the tilt measurement of lens module with multiple lenses. The tilt between lenses in lens module and barrel or between image sensor and barrel can be measured precisely with the proposed algorithm. The magnitude and direction of the tilt vector of lens and image sensor can be measured from the best focal surface. The selecting and setting of image sensor, test chart, image sensor centering to lens module, axis align, focus measure method are also explained to get highly precise tilt results. The proposed algorithm is verified with the lens module inspection system we developed, and the experimental results show that the tilt measure proposed in this paper is robust and precise. With the proposed tilt measurement algorithm, the tilt of an image sensor and any other lens which intermediates light can be measured.

Page-oriented holographic data storage (HDS) is very sensitive to the tilt error. Therefore, tilt error should be measured and compensated. Especially, mechanical tilt measurement method cannot cope with tilt error measurement because photopolymer medium has shrinkage problem. Therefore, the method to solve this problem is using the reconstructed image which can represent both tilt and shrinkage effect. In this paper, we suggest disc tilt measurement algorithm using image pattern of retrieval data.

Eddy current (EC) sensor works based on the electromagnetic induction principle and has been widely applied in the industrial testing and evaluation due to its robustness and environmental adaptability. Meanwhile, tilt angle measurement is mainly based on the laser or visual method, which is strict with the measurement environment and not suitable for the industrial applications. In this paper, a novel tilt angle measurement method based on arrayed EC sensors is proposed. Both the simulation and experiments indicate that the measured error is approximately linear with tilt angle and the accuracy after compensation is $0.25^{\circ}$. In conclusion, this research cannot only broaden the scope of EC application, but also overcome the shortcomings of existing angle measurement methods.

This paper describes a method of measuring tilt motion. This method measures the tilt motion of drilling machines using a laser interferometer, a simple sliding linear bearing, measurement of the probe and the LSC(least square center) method. The next order of business is discussing the procedure of measurement. First, The measured position is considered to be the point of contact between the drill shank and the probe. The revolution of the drill axis delivers the point of contact to the probe. Second, because the laser interferometer is attached on the sliding linear bearing, any movement of probe influences laser reflector. Thus, the laser program displays the moving factor of laser reflector. Namely, this is tilt factor. Third. the points of measurement are a full circle which has 8 points (each are 45$^{\circ}$), After it is finished measuring the 8 points, let the spindle of the drilling machine move down about 5 cm. Repeating this procedure three times, we can get tilt motion's values which are calculated by LSC method. Many error factors affect the accurate measurement of tilt motion. However in this paper we ignore some error factors because they are less significant than tilt motion.

In this paper, a new, simple capacitive tilt sensor with a metallic ball is proposed. The proposed tilt sensor has only two electrodes and a metallic ball, and this design assists in managing the inherent contact problem in measuring tilt angles. Capacitive sensing, compared with other types of tilt sensor, has many advantages such as simplicity, noncontact measurement, long-throw linear displacement, and sub-micron plate spacing. Its design and fabrication process are significantly simpler than previous types of tilt sensors. The dimensions of the prototype tilt sensor are $20mm{\times}20mm$, and the diameter of the polystyrene tube is 5 mm with a tube thickness of 0.15 mm. An analytical study of the prototype capacitive tilt sensor was undertaken, and the experimental results demonstrate the relationship between the tilt angles and measured capacitances compared with the analytical study.

Tilt is a key indicator of structural safety. Real-time monitoring of tilt responses helps to evaluate structural condition, enable cost-effective maintenance, and enhance lifetime resilience. This paper presents a prototype wireless sensing system for structural tilt measurement. Long range (LoRa) technology is adopted by the sensing system to offer long-range wireless communication with low power consumption. The sensor integrates a gyroscope and an accelerometer as the sensing module. Although tilt can be estimated from the gyroscope or the accelerometer measurements, these estimates suffer from either drift issue or high noise. To address this challenging issue and obtain more reliable tilt results, two sensor fusion algorithms, the complementary filter and the Kalman filter, are investigated to fully exploit the advantages of both gyroscope and accelerometer measurements. Numerical simulation is carried out to validate and compare the sensor fusion algorithms. Laboratory experiment is conducted on a simply supported beam under moving vehicle load to further investigate the performance of the proposed wireless tilt sensing system.

최근 컴퓨터 비전, LiDAR 등을 활용하여 구조물의 유지관리를 효율화하기 위한 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 건축물의 경우, 점검 항목 중 하나인 기울기는 일반적으로 토탈스테이션을 이용하여 계측하는데, 점검자에 따라 계측값이 일정하지 않아 정확한 기울기 값을 얻기 어렵다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 현행 건축물 기울기 계측 방식의 신뢰도를 개선하고 측정 과정을 효율화하기 위하여 Point Cloud를 활용한 건축물 기울기 측정 자동화 방법론을 제안한다. 제안 방법론의 기울기 추정 알고리즘은 적용 대상을 직육면체 형태의 건물로 제한하며 외벽 평면 추출과 모서리 추정 및 기울기 계산의 두 단계로 이루어져 있다. 해당 알고리즘을 실제 건축물에 적용하여 기울기를 추정하였고, 이를 토탈스테이션을 이용한 계측방법과 비교하였다. 그 결과, 제안 기법은 정확도와 객관성, 그리고 자동화 관점에서 기존의 측정방식을 대체할 만한 수준으로 판단된다.

In this paper, we develop the displacement measurement system of multiple moving objects based on image processing techniques. The image processing method adopts inertia moment theory for obtaining the centroid measurement of the targets and basic processing algorithm of gray, binary, closing, labeling and so on. To get precise displacement measurement in spite of multiple moving targets, a CGD camera with zoom is used and the position of camera is changed by a pan/tilt system. The fiducial marks on the fixed positions are used as the sensing points for the image processing to recognize the position errors in direction of XY-coordinates. The precise alignment device is pan/tilt of XY-type and the pan/tilt is controlled by DC servomotors which are driven by a microprocessor. Morover, the centers of fiducial marks are obtainted by an inertia moment method. By applying the developed precise position control system for multiple targets, the displacement of multiple moving targets are detected automatically and are also stored in the database system in a real time. By using database system and internet, the displacement datum can be confirmed at a great distance and analyzed. Finally, the effectiveness of developed system is shown in experimental results and realized the precision about 0.12[mm] in the position control of XY-coordinates.

We demonstrate a frequency-resolved optical grating (FROG) device for measuring the intensity and phase versus time of several-tens-of-picoseconds laser pulses, using a thick nonlinear optical crystal. The huge pulse-front tilt generated by a holographic grating increases the temporal range of the device, which can make a single-shot measurement of laser pulses less than 100 ps in duration. To verify the measurement technique, we generate double pulses using a Michelson interferometer. The measured duration of a single pulse is about 300 fs and the measured maximum delay of two pulses is 60 ps, which implies that the proposed FROG device can measure laser pulses with maximum pulse width of about 120 ps.

The precise alignment device is pan /tilt of X - Y type and the pan/tilt is controlled by DC servomotors which are driven by 80c196kc microprocessor based controller. The centers of the fiducial marks are obtained by a inertia moment method. By applying the developed precise position control system for multiple targets, the displacement of multiple moving targets are detected automatically and are stored in the database system in a real time. By using database system and internet, displacement data can be confirmed at a great distance and analyzed. The developed system shows the effectiveness such that it realizes the precision about 0.12mm in the position control of X -Y coordinates.
