Hello,
I have a base level arc mate robot I am using (given from customer) for a 3d line scanner application. The 3d line scanner is mounted to the robot. I need to feed an "encoder" pulse to the controller of the 3d scanner from the robot to handle the triggering. I have used the scanners before and with a drive i generated a pulse based on position. Then in the camera I set how much movement 1 pulse is and it will trigger based on the pulse to make a perfect stitched together image through the travel. It will be a straight X direction movement during the scan. The camera has a physical wired input for this pulse. Hopefully I can somehow utilize it this way. I am worried if I do it over Ethernet I will have some latency issues. Do you guys have any experience or tips for trying to do this?
Thanks
Kevin
