2011 GSDAA Finalist: Positioning Actuators for the European Extremely Large Telescope Primary Mirror With LabVIEW and PXI Hardware
2011 Advanced Control Systems Finalist
Positioning Actuators for the European Extremely Large Telescope Primary Mirror With LabVIEW and PXI Hardware
Author: Miguel Núñez, Yolanda Martín, Marcos Reyes, Teodora Viera - Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias
Challenge: Developing the electronics and embedded software used to manage and coordinate three nanometric position actuator prototypes for the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT) primary mirror that can move 90 Kg with nanometric accuracy, while being conceptually representative of future electronics design for serial production.
Solution: Using NI LabVIEW software and PXI hardware to create a complete fusion plasma measurement system that we can update in the future as necessary.
