Construction and programming of the platform for spatial imaging with sensors

Abstract

In this paper, the construction solution and the method of programming the platform for spatial imaging with sensors are presented. The mechanical construction of the platform is described in detail, as well as the electrical components needed for movement of the sensor carrier in the horizontal plane. Movement is achieved by two stepper motors, and movement control is obtained by connecting the corresponding Arduino and LabVIEW programs. The movement of the carrier from the initial position, through four arbitrary points, until it is placed again in the initial position was realised. The paper provides relevant technical data about the platform, connection diagrams, parts of the program code and accompanying discussion.
