Motion Simulation for Testing Image Stabilization
High Repeatability – High Dynamics – High Path Accuracy
Taking sharp pictures despite poor lighting conditions, taking snapshots without blurring, recognizing traffic signs or road markings in driver assistance systems, or identifying dangerous situations in surveillance systems - all of this is possible today with the help of modern cameras. But how good is the still and video image quality of a camera or smartphone? End users, manufacturers from companies in the aerospace, medical and security, or the automation technology sectors - they all place high demands on the performance capabilities and look for answers to these questions. Companies dealing with these issues rely on test equipment that guarantees reliable and comparable test results. In order to test the image stabilization systems of cameras, for example, the frequencies and axis movements must be simulated realistically and they must be identical for each test.
Motion Simulation Applications Benefit from
- Multiple degrees of freedom
- Freely definable pivot point according to the position of the image stabilization component in the camera
- Tracking of predefined trajectories
- Motion frequencies to 50 Hz*
- CIPA certification*

- Coordinate transformation for parallel kinematics is handled by the controller
- Reference system (work, tool) can be quickly and easily changed
- Definition of sine curves and/or arbitrary trajectories
- Support of motor brakes and absolute-measuring sensors with BiSS interface
- Analog input available
- Easy integration in automation processes via industrial EtherCAT® interface

CIPA Certification
The lobby association of the Japanese photographic industry Camera & Imaging Products Association (CIPA) sets standards for motion systems that are used in test equipment for image stabilization. Hexapods from PI are the only six-axis positioning system for the simulation of camera shake during photographing that fulfill the requirements of the CIPA standard.

Further Industries and Applications that Benefit From Motion Simulation with Hexapods
Freely Definable Center of Rotation
The freely definable rotation or pivot point is an essential feature of the parallel-kinematic hexapod. This means that the motion of the hexapod platform can be specifically adapted to the position of the gyroscope so that ideal realistic conditions can be created.
