Detailed Analysis of the Timing Measurements in Optical Position Sensing Devices Based on Laser Beam Deflection

Figure 6

(a) The sinusoidal motion of the tilt angles corresponds to an ideal Lissajous pattern. (b) The projection onto a flat surface induces distortion. (c) This is reflected by a cross talk between - and -position on the screen, when plotted as a function of time. (Parameters for frequency and amplitude are similar to Table 1.)
