Implementation of the dynamic laser goniometer for noncontact measurement of angular movement

Abstract. The dynamic laser goniometer (LG) implementation for noncontact measurements of an object’s angular position is presented. One of the possible implementations involves determining the time dependence of the scanning mirror’s angular position. Another application is aimed at determining the oscillatory movement parameters on the test table. The results obtained in the course of the research show that the dynamic LG makes it possible to calibrate various kinds of test beds making angular oscillations or angular movement of arbitrary law.
