Catalog excerpts
All Metronor products have three main components: • A set of light sources, typically very robust and reliable Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) • One or more solid-state digital cameras, capturing images of the LEDs • A computer, automatically controlling and optimizing the LED/cameras interaction If the shape and size of the LED pattern are known, then a single image of the LED pattern is enough to calculate where the LED pattern is , both in terms of position as well as orientation, relative to the camera. The LEDs are typically mounted into a structure such as a hand-held probe, a carbon-fiber pad, or a metal structure to form a stable pattern. Some unique aspects of Metronor technology: Completely solid state without moving parts -rugged, reliable, stable/accurate over time. Redundancy - designed to acquire more data than needed (always at least 5 LEDs even where 3 is the minimum requirement ) in order to continuously verify measurement accuracy. Modular - easily upgraded, flexible investment, excellent supportability Remote, stationary sensor - no forces acting through camera/tripod, so no need to anchor or weigh down to try to eliminate effects of probe movement like on measurement arms. Metronor is an ISO 9001 certified high-technoLogy company headquartered just outside OsLo, Norway. Based on in-house innovation and research, Metronor has since 1989 developed a range of electro-optical portable coordinate measuring systems in three business areas. Military: Products and solutions for boresight systems, helmet tracker alignment, helmet tracking, and for lightweight position and orientation tracking for sensors and weapons. Industrial: Portable measurement systems with applications for robotic production lines for the automotive industry, parts production and inspection for the aerospace industry, energy companies e.g. windmiH blade production, turbine production, as weH as large-scale casting companies. Medical: Proven solutions within the micron-level accuracy range for pre-calibration of couches and gantries, in-line alignment solutions for patients, and closed-loop feedback solutions for real-time compensation of misalignments during treatment.
