Ultra-high, resolution, modular optical angle encoder for space-based opto-mechanical applications
A 27-bit optical encoder using a novel patent pending technology has been developed by the MicroE Development Center of BEI Sensors & Systems Company and tested by the Sensor Systems Group (SSG) Inc., in a positioning and stabilization mirror assembly (PSMA) designed and constructed under a grant from the Marshall Space Flight Center. Test results verified performance within the specifications of the PSMA.
