For testing image stabilization techniques, PI (Physik Instrumente) developed a new version of the H-811 Hexapod that achieves oscillations, i.e. rotary motions, with dynamics of 20 Hz over a 0.1° travel range. Here the Hexapod system repeatably executes a defined test trajectory.
Like the H-811.D1x Mini-Hexapod, the H-811.S11 Hexapod provides travel ranges of up to 34 mm in the XY plane and up to 13 mm in the Z direction. The tilt angles are 20° around the X and Y axis and up to 42° around the Z axis.
The Motion Hexapod is driven by a controller that is equipped with a wave generator for sine oscillations. In addition, predefined trajectories can be saved. Triggering and synchronous data recording is possible with digital I/O interfaces.
