Spinning Shaft

Precision control of a tiltable spinning shaft requires real-time measurement of the inclination. Conventional single-axis encoders, though capable of providing high-resolution (linear or angular) measurements, rely on mechanical linkages (that often introduce frictions, backlashes, and singularities) to constrain the device so that the three-DOF motion can be deduced from the individual orthogonal measurements. Vision-based sensors, which have the attractive features of being non-contact, are limited to low speed measurements. We present here an efficient method for designing a magnetic field-based orientation sensor for devices where orientation control of a rotating shaft under the influence of a magnetic field is required. The ability to characterize the magnetic fields and forces in addition to orientation sensing can offer a number of advantages in real-time computation and control.

Heavy Construction

This paper describes the application of sensors to prevent collision accidents with heavy equipment such as hydraulic excavators and cranes. From the results of an existing system evaluation, the author developed a system that measures distance from heavy equipment to personnel using a camera, 2-D laser range finder, and 3-D orientation sensor. A prototype wasmade and it has been confirmed that the detection of personnel is possible based on camera images and laser range data.
