Abstract

Dispositivo fotoeléctrico de adaptación para posicionar a distancia un primer elemento con relación a un segundo elemento que incluye: una fuente luminosa puntual conectada de manera fija con el primer elemento y dirigida para concentrar un estrecho haz de luz a lo largo de un trayecto preestablecido; una fotocélula conectada de manera fija al segundo elemento y que tiene por lo menos tres salidas eléctricas tomadas a partir de emplazamientos sustancialmente simétricos en la superficie fotosensible de la célula, unos medios para transformar las salidas en un segundo grupo de tensiones eléctricas de salida representativas de las coordenadas cartesianas del primer elemento respecto al segundo elemento, caracterizado porque incluye un dispositivo para visualizar las tensiones eléctricas de salida bajo la forma de una representación visual tridimensional de la posición relativa de los primero y segundo elementos.
