Spherical surface movement mechanism
Technical Field

Background
The spherical motion is an important component of a target optical characteristic measurement system and an optical imaging guidance head performance test system based on semi-physical simulation. In the target optical characteristic measurement system, in order to perform optical characteristic measurement in different illumination directions and observation directions, generally, the light source and the measurement target are not moved, and it is necessary to change the position of the detector or the measurement target or the pitch angle of the detector in the detection direction. In the optical imaging guidance leader performance test system, a semi-physical simulation technology is adopted to simulate the motion characteristics of a target under a laboratory condition, so that the test on the tracking performance of the optical imaging guidance leader is realized.
