Description

Controlling the motion platform system by tapping the reference calibration

The invention relates to a system for controlling a motion platform by using a touch-producing reference, in particular to an image control system which can be easily observed by a user and can be set by single or multi-touch and reference calibration.

The camera takes the image and displays it on the screen after taking the image. The user needs to adjust the stage for carrying the observation object by hand to make the observation object appear on the screen. This way of alignment is simple, but In some cases, it is not applicable, such as a vacuum chamber or a toxic environment, which is an environment in which the observer is not suitable for work. Later, such microscope improvements were made in an electronically controlled manner, that is, an electrically driven actuator was placed on the stage, and the actuator was used to drive the stage to adjust the position of the target in the picture. Such a platform allows The operator can observe the remote end, and the user can adjust the position of the observation object only by computer control. Although such a microscope is more convenient for personnel to observe, it is not intuitive enough.
