WAS 160: Portable sensor for measurement of radius and wedge angle
Application:
|
windshields of cars, helicopters, airplanes |
The »WAS 160« serves for the measurement of wedge angle and radius of curvature of windshields, e.g. of cars. In principle it can be used for each transparent object.
These parameters are general quality criteria. They are important in particular, if by help of special projectors informations were in-reflected in the field of view of the driver. If the parameters deviate noticeably from the demanded values, double pictures or indistinct pictures can develop, which make the projector useless.
The »WAS 160« was specially developed to measure both parameters with one and the same sensor.
The sensor consists basically of a motorized focusable autocollimator with image processing system for data acquisition and -evaluation.
Positioning system
Features of the positioning system
The positioning system has a frame with suction feet for mounting on the car windscreen.
The frame represents an x / y guiding system, which enables the reproducible manual positioning of the measuring head.
The measuring head is mounted in such a way that it can be placed perpendicular to the surface of the windscreen at any point on the windscreen.
