| Abstract: |
This paper reviews automated fiber-optic placing techniques and describes a new fiber-placing system which uses optical feedback techniques to control the fiber positioning in the telescope image plane, and describes the method of operation. The system will significantly improve the positioning accuracy of earlier systems and reduce the dead area around each target object. Schematic diagrams of the pallet and the positioning head of the system are presented. |
