Lightweight interface, offering seamless connectivity to embedded operating systems.
An innovative new lightweight interface for Hexagon’s laser trackers, offering seamless connectivity to embedded microprocessors and Linux operating systems. LMF-e (LMF-embedded) enables dynamic trajectory corrections with accurate timestamps, which allows for the precise synchronisation of metrology data with robotic or machine movements, improving process stability, accuracy, and repeatability.
Benefits And Features
Embedded interface
Lightweight variant of LMF interface that runs on Linux and embedded microprocessors (eg ARM CPU).
Soft real-time
Measurement and control data are delivered quickly and consistently, providing reliable performance for applications where brief timing variations do not affect process stability.
Precision time protocol
PTP synchronises integrated clocks of devices throughout a computer network. With an accuracy of the clocks in a range of sub-microseconds.
