Definitions

  • This invention provides a mounting for an optical apparatus having an optical axis, the mounting having non-moving and moving components including a base and a support for the optical apparatus which provide movement about one or more orthogonal axes and having damping means between the moving and non-moving components for the or each axis, wherein means are provided for determining the difference between actual and intended movements of the apparatus and applying a correction to the apparatus determined thereby.
  • the means to detect any difference between the intended and actual movements and to control application of a corrective movement to the apparatus may comprise a microprocessor .
