  • RE<C: Heliostat Orientation Estimation Using a 3-Axis
    RE<C: Heliostat Orientation Estimation Using a 3-Axis Accelerometer Design Goals Early Attempts and Ideas Feedback Control System Sensor Requirements Pitch-Roll Articulation Review Derivation of Reflector Basis Vectors and Pitch/Roll Angles Angle Estimation Accuracy Mirror Offset from Roll Axis Determining the Mirror Normal when Using an Angle Offset Mount Conclusion Design Goals The sensing and control strategy for our heliostats, described in the heliostat control and targeting overview, split the design of our control system into two parts: 1. Rough heliostat orientation using an accelerometer, and 2. Precise on-target control using cameras and photometry. After testing many different designs, we built a rough orientation control system using a 3-axis accelerometer, able to sense and direct mirror orientation with close to one degree of precision (20 milliradians) for the entire motion range of the mirror. This level of precision is required for orientation tasks such as stowing the mirror in high winds and bringing the light spot close enough to the target for capture by the precise on-target tracking system. Cost reduction was the central goal directing the design decisions for our heliostat sensors and control system. It was critical to keep individual heliostat sensing and control costs low, since our heliostat field design called for the construction of hundreds to possibly thousands of heliostats. This document describes our approach to creating our rough orientation sensing system, and our approach to keeping costs down while reducing computational complexity. Early Attempts and Ideas Conventional heliostat designs use dead reckoning to align the reflectors with the the heliostat target or tower.

An interface for manipulating these elements is suggested, based on the concept of a disk-jockey turntable as a performance instrument. A system is developed around this idea, enabling optical pickup of visual informa- tion from physical media as input to processes on the computer. Software architecture(s) are discussed and examples are implemented, illustrating the potential uses of the interface for the purpose of creative expression in the virtual domain.

  • Throw Your Smartphone Semester Thesis
    Distributed Computing Throw Your Smartphone Semester Thesis Anton Beitler [email protected] Distributed Computing Group Computer Engineering and Networks Laboratory ETH Z¨urich Supervisors: Barbara Keller, Jara Uitto Prof. Dr. Roger Wattenhofer October 20, 2012 Abstract The Android app developed in this work enables the user to take aerial pho- tographs by throwing the smartphone in the air. This involved overcoming inherent limitations of the underlying system, such as camera lag and sensor saturation. A motion detection algorithm is proposed which reliably detects the stages of a vertical throw and copes with the system's limitation. Experiments show that the proposed method is capable of increasing peak prediction accuracy by more than 80%. i Contents Abstracti 1 Introduction1 2 Materials and Methods2 2.1 Set-up.................................2 2.1.1 Motion Sensing with Smart Phones.............2 2.2 Physical Model of a Vertical Throw.................3 3 ThrowMeApp7 3.1 The Android Hardware API.....................8 3.1.1 Camera API.........................9 3.1.2 Sensors API.......................... 10 3.2 Data Handling (Model)....................... 11 3.3 Motion Detection and Prediction (Controller)........... 13 3.3.1 The Throw Detection Algorithm.............. 14 3.3.2 Peak Prediction........................ 16 3.3.3 Orientation Detection.................... 18 3.4 User Interface (View)........................ 18 4 Experiments and Results 20 4.1 Quantifying Camera Delay...................... 21 4.2 A Typical Throw........................... 22 4.3 Peak Prediction Accuracy...................... 23 4.4 Rotation Stability.......................... 25 4.5 Camera Pictures........................... 25 ii Contents iii 5 Discussion and Conclusion 29 5.1 Discussion of Results......................... 29 5.1.1 Accuracy of Motion Detection...............

Complex camera sys- tems such as Vicon can be used to retrieve very precise motion data. However, the system is more commercial-oriented with a high cost. Besides, it would also be tedious and cumbersome to wear the special markers and suits for tracking. Therefore, there’s an urgent need to investigate a cost-effective and markless tool for motion tracking. Microsoft Kinect provides a promising solution with a vast vari- ety of libraries, allowing quick development of 3-D spatial modeling and analysis such as moving skeleton possible. For example, the kine- matics of the joints such as acceleration, velocity, and angle changes can be deduced from the spatial position information acquired by the camera. In order to validate whether the Kinect system is sufficient for the analysis in practice, a micro-controller platform Arduino along with Intel R CurieTM IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) module is de- veloped.
