Abstract

Un dispositif de détection de position et de posture de type optique selon l'invention comprend au moins deux sources lumineuses à une distance prédéterminée et un élément récepteur (112) de la lumière de chacune des sources. La posture et la position de l'élément récepteur sont calculées en fonction de la distance prédéterminée et de deux angles bidimensionnels détectés par un détecteur d'angle comprenant au moins deux parties réceptrices de lumière (112a, 112b) d'un photodétecteur (112), entre lesquelles est disposée verticalement une plaque d'interception de la lumière (114), l'angle d'incidence theta de la lumière d'une source sur le photodétecteur étant calculé en fonction des intensités de la lumière reçue sur chacune des parties réceptrices.
