Agenda Background System Analysis Concept Development Detailed Risk Assessment Project Schedule Test Plan Challenges Action Items
Background Problem statement stakeholders Customer needs Engineering requirements House of quality Benchmarking results Current Project schedule
Problem Statement • Current State: • Module from NST that can steer a laser beam • Lacks the ability to detect and reduce unwanted vibrations • Future State: • System to sense and interpret vibrations • Output to NST Module for corrective action • Goals: • Handheld, self-contained and safe design • Constraints: • Operating temperature, package size
Stakeholders • New Scale Technologies, Victor, NY • Dave Henderson, Owner • Daniele Piazza, R&D • RIT & MSD • MSD Group
Customer Needs Engineering Requirements Needs and Requirements
House of Quality Top Concerns: Amp Reduction Response Time NST Laser Steering
Benchmarking Results • Comparison of Gyroscopes and Accelerometers • Gyroscope: output given in rad/sec; measures roll, yaw and pitch; possible vendor- InvenSense IDG- 1000 • Accelerometer: cannot sense yaw directly; requires more computation • Target Frequency Range: 1-20 Hz • Round 1 testing confirmed range
Frequency Range Testing Arm Extended, Unfiltered Arm Extended, Filtered
Test Bench Ideas • Requirements: • Frequency: 1-20 Hz • Amplitude: +/- 2 degrees
Patent Results • US 7553048 B2 • Uses a gimbal (13) and magnet (80)
Patent Results • US 7380722 B2 • Uses 2 accelerometers and a mirror
Patent Results • US 8436908 B2 • Uses a stabilizer and actuators
Patent Results • US 20130077945 A1 • Uses 3 actuators and a gyroscope

System Architecture Battery Servo/USB (I2C) Gyroscope Scaled Inversion Low Pass Filter Integrator
Detailed Risk Assessment Top Concerns: Battery failure Poor sensor accuracy Poor data processing Send wrong control signal to NST module
Test Plan • Gyroscope • Accuracy, output scaling • Filter Design • Transfer function • Integrator Design • Accuracy, response time, noise • Test bench • Functionality, calibrate frequency • Algorithm • Vibration reduction capacity
Challenges • Control system design • Response time, accuracy • Reached out to NST for input on analog versus digital • Still waiting for a response
Action Items • Update NST on progress • Refine test bench design • 1 versus 2 axis • Future Benchmarking • Feedback system/loop: analog circuit in some binocular systems • Components: gyroscope, battery, processor
