Alignment of the allPIXA camera
Exact alignment of the allPIXA camera is necessary for many applications, for example, if you
use several allPIXA cameras in parallel.
The following section describes a simple method for exact alignment of the allPIXA camera.
Figure 31: Alignment of the allPIXA camera
In that case the static reference is the scanned object of which the camera is to be aligned
including one vertical and one steadily rising straight line. These two straight lines intersect in
the set position of the green color channel; prerequisite is that the lines are continually acquired
(free-running mode) and the reference should no longer be moved.
Each line then achieves the same position and the angled line is acquired as a result of spacing
the sensor lines of the color lines in different positions which results in colored lines in the image.
The vertical center line produces a black line in the image, therefore, the center of the colored
lines and the black line have to be aligned.
